This was a birthday treat for me and the service was superb from the onset. When we arrived the staff announced that we had been awarded an upgrade and the room was exceptional. This hotel is ideal for both business and leisure travellers and is a real sanctuary in the heart of beautiful Edinburgh. more

Rooms 92 to 104 are directly above the Jongeluers night club, the bass and noise from below goes on until 2.30am. We booked via expedia and I would suggest that these rooms are usually booked through this or a similar source. This is not a 5* hotel from a facilities view point. The staff were excellent and very helpful, the... more

I booked this hotel as an amazing 5*, 3 night break to celebrate my husband's 30th birthday. I wanted a no expenses spared weekend and thought the Glasshouse looked perfect. Instead of coming away feeling pampered and treated I feel disappointed and I guess slightly cheated. I just wanted to put a review on here to let people know what... more

We had a 3 day romantic break away and the hotel exceeded expectations. The staff were amazingly friendly and helpful from the moment we walked through the door. The doorman was an exceptional gentleman and was so helpful. Room service was quick and friendly and nothing was too much for the staff. The room itself was beautiful, very clean and... more

We live in Scotland & we went to Edinburgh on a long weekend [3 day weekend] to do some shopping & visit some historical sites. We stayed in a studio suite & the suite was so amazing with a wonderful view to the extent that we were rushing to get back to spend some time in it. The Glasshouse is... more

From the moment you check in until the time you leave this hotel remembers you are the guest and the level of service and quiet attention underlines their dedication to you. The front of the hotel belies its very modern scandinavian furnishings and decor; old Edinburgh on the outside comfortable modern on the in. The rooms and suites are a... more

We booked the hotel as the final flourishing highlight to our honeymoon and also my 30th birthday. Online it looked amazing and the perfect place to finish our trip. We didnt get off to a very good start, it isnt the easiest to find, we drove past it twice before spotting it. Beware if you are planning to head on... more
