Accommodation Description:
Orocco Pier, a boutique Edinburgh Hotel only 20mins from the city centre.The awards and plaudits Orocco Pier continues to win are important but the real measure of our success is that customers keep coming back, whether for a quiet drink, an evening meal or to rest and recharge the batteries on a weekend break.Business clients also take advantage of Orocco Piers immediate access to the City and airport of Edinburgh, or the industry and commerce of Fife and the Central belt

The hotel is a refreshing cocktail of contemporary metropolitan chic a choice of bar areas, a stylish dining restaurant, and a dedicated fully adaptable events space while the twelve boutique bedrooms and three levels of outside decking make the very most of the unique waters edge setting in the heart of an historic village.On a relaxing sunny evening out on the decking areas watching the occasional estuary traffic, its easy to forget its only seven miles to the city centre of Edinburgh. With the cooking aromas teasing the senses, and the hum of conversation its little wonder that our customers stop for a while
