We\ were deeply disappointed by our Sunday evening visit to celebrate our 6th wedding anniversay. It was important to us as our wedding reception lunch had been in the Secret Garden six years ago when we were married in Edinburgh castle. Table was booked for 8 pm and we arrived in good time, but unfortunately 8 other people also arrived... more

We stayed in the inner sanctum and were blown away with how beautiful and romantic the suite was. The bathroom was massive and the rolltop bath was amazing. The bedroom was stunning and we thoroughly enjoyed cuddling up on the four poster bed with our champayne ! It was our first night as Mr & Mrs and was the perfect... more

Darkly decadent, abundantly atmospheric & gloriously gothic! This has to be on the list of 'Places to stay before you die' A truly magical experience, from the champagne chilling on arrival to the delicious chocolate & gorgeous smellies. Delightful staff & fabulous service. Im saving up to go back again & again & again! more

I went to the Witchery with my husband for our 1 yr wedding anniversary. Reception were friendly and took the bags straight up to the room, which was a good job as I wouldnt have got my case up the stairs. This though was the start of the magic. I have never been in a hotel where you have to... more

We were totally wiped out after our wedding day and The Witchery was an indulgent first night stop before our tour north. We've been there before for dinner but hadn't stayed, service has always been wonderful on past visits. Not hugely welcoming at reception, little frosty. However the butler staff who helped us up with all our bags were wonderful,... more

We did not stay here but we decided to eat at the witchery one night. Food was very disappointing. I ordered haggis as the starter and finished it in about 10 seconds flat, it was tasty but the portion was a joke. Next I had the beef which was nice but again the portion was tiny and at a cost... more

Due to the awful weather it took us 9 hours to get there from Yorkshire, I'd booked a room and a table for dinner for 8 pm we didn't get ther til 8.30pm. The staff were more than happy to rearrange our reseverations and we weren't treated like fools when we walked in looking like drowned rats! My husband doesn't... more

stayed in the old rectory in august and just enjoyed every minute of it- actually so much that we hardly left the room! friendly roxy brought all our luggage to our room beforehand as we arrived too early to check in. when we came back he was already waiting for us and showed us to the room, explaining everything we... more

I longed to stay at The Witchery even before I learned of its existence. Some of us search for a special place - somewhere unique, somewhere that fulfils and goes beyond our expectations - somewhere we can leave behind our everyday existence and escape for a short while. The Witchery is such a place! Located on Edinburgh's Royal Mile, right... more
