  • Really fantastic meal! Last day of our first visit to Edinburgh and decided to book the North Bridge Brasserie. Both had the seven course taster menu that was first class. We couldn't fault it. The staff were excellent and couldn't do enough for you. A brilliant experience!
  • My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the tasting menu yesterday evening. It was matched by the great hospitality of the staff. Many thanks for a great evening.
  • Lovely historic building. Staff friendly and very professional. Food excellent quality and beautifully presented.
  • as an extra EXTRA special treat, i went here for a champagne afternoon tea. the service (as you would expect from a 5* hotel) was expectional. the surroundings were luxurious and we were made to feel welcomed immediately. the cakes were beautifully presented, delicious and overall perfect for the occasion.
  • Nice afternoon tea

Where to stay in Edinburgh

©
Edinburgh hides a maze of cobbled streets dotted with boutique hotels offering inexpensive rooms and outstanding restaurants. Many of the city's Gothic buildings house chic hotels with easy access to most of the city’s main tourist sites. For a uniquely Scottish experience, consider staying in the famous old town. Despite being in this historical district, many hotels here feature contemporary decor with lots of glass walls and muted color schemes. They’re also known for offering spacious rooms, comfortable beds, and restaurants serving classic European cuisine, with a modern Scottish twist.
