The Scotsman, Edinburgh

Accommodation Description:
Voted one of the top hotels in the world by both Cond Nast Traveller and Departures Magazine in 2002. In 2003 won AA Hotel of the Year, Escape Gym named one of the Top 10 Day Spas in the UK by Cond Nast Traveller in 2004 and in the same year Tatler Magazine named the hotel one of the Top 20 in the UK. In December 2007 Cond Nast Traveller readers named The Scotsman as one of the top 20 hotels in the UK for business

Located on Edinburghs historical North Bridge, The Scotsman has been converted from the Scotsman Newspapers baronial offices into one of the most stylish hotels in the city. The hotel is just a minutes stroll from both Princes Street and The Royal Mile. The hotel brings together the efficiency of the 21st Century with careful to innovative design but most of all huge comfort and the very best of Scottish hospitality

Unique elements of the design are evident throughout the building, helping to establish an overall feeling of well-being and exclusivity. The 56 bedrooms and 13 Suites are each different in shape, interior design and size. The common thread throughout all the rooms is the use of genuine Scottish Estate tweeds as part of the interior design

Some four dozen estates consented to allow us to use this very unique part of the Scottish heritage. The Scotsman - your 5 star luxury boutique hotel in Edinburgh.
