Newly refurbished from Summer 2022 and located at the foot of Arthur’s Seat on the edge of Holyrood Park, The Scott is a luxury boutique hotel, originally built in the 1780s. The building boasts many of its original features, including the spectacular Red Room Bar, grand Dining Room with spectacular Bonnar ceiling, ornately carved wood paneling, fire places and stained glass windows. With no two rooms the same, the 36 junior suites and deluxe bedrooms blend modern luxury with the grandeur and grace of the original building. All bedrooms feature Elite™ Lily mattresses and the highest quality duvets, pillows and bed linens to ensure the best possible night’s sleep. The luxury experience is completed with beautifully designed en-suite bathrooms, including fluffy towels and Isgha spa products. You’ll enjoy breakfast in our elegant dining room with windows overlooking the hotel’s private garden and you can relax in our cosy Red Room Bar. The Scott is located in the leafy and vibrant Southside area and is only a short walk away from Edinburgh’s world famous landmarks.
