What a brilliant hotel! We booked an "Editor's room" and were delighted with it. Our flight was early in the morning so we asked for an early check-in. Unfortunately that turned out not to be possible, however we were well compensated when we saw a bottle of Prosecco in an ice bucket waiting for us in the room. Staff were... more

My wife & I stayed at this remarkable hotel in Jan 09. From the greeting at the door to a 'pampered' check in we knew this was going to be something special. Then we got to our room - what can I say? absolutely fabulous, we had room 204 that overlookes the bridge. The room was massive, it had a... more

We stayed at The Scotsman on 17 January for 1 night. Our room wasn't ready when we arrived so the concierge took our bags while we went for lunch and a wander around town. On our return the room still wasn't ready so we were offered a complimentary drink in the brasserie. Once we got to our room we were... more
