    short stroll

    stunning views and easy access to edinburgh's top sights

    I loved unwinding in the Library Suite, which offered breathtaking views of the Royal Mile while being just a short stroll from the iconic Edinburgh Castle and the serene Princes Street Gardens, making it the perfect spot for someone who enjoys city walks as much as I do.

    unique decor
    amazing food

    Perfect for a cozy family getaway

    We stayed in the Guardroom and the decor made us feel like we were in a different era. The food at the Secret Garden restaurant was an experience in itself, each dish was exquisite and well thought out.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap but worth every penny.

    heated floors
    soaker tub
    breakfast spread
    missing bubbly

    After a night of glamping in the highlands, we decided to pamper ourselves here, and boy, it did not disappoint! The heated floors and soaker tub were perfect after a long day of exploring, and the breakfast spread allowed us to feel like royalty. Just a minor note, a complimentary bottle of bubbly would have been a nice gesture for the price, but overall, we left feeling refreshed and happy! 🍾

    We felt like we were in a fairy tale in our stunning Guard room! The food was amazing, especially breakfast in the cozy restaurant. We even got an unexpected refund for a billing mistake, which was super cool. Only wish the taxi wait was a bit shorter. Can't wait to visit again!
