The Hotel or B&B is a five bed mansion house in a beautiful crescent in trendy Sotckbridge. Guests are allowed the run of the place which is beautifully designed, with a blend of traditional and modern furniture. The walls are decorated with huge original, 1960's French Poster ads. You can make yourself a cuppa in the kitchen, have a game... More

What an amazing place. All of the reviews we read were right - a typical Newtown Edinburgh property with high ceilings and Georgian windows. You instantly feel at home and are encouraged to slip off your shoes and curl up on the couch in the lounge room with a glass of wine, beer or a soft drink and watch the... More

Home Again. In early November after five years absence we returned to Edinburgh and One Royal Circus. This is our third stay at One Royal Circus (fourth if you count our 2007 trip when we started and ended our three week in Scotland at One Royal Circus). Obviously, we enjoy One Royal Circus and after five years it is just... More

this is the best B&B I have stayed in the past few years! Beautiful designed rooms, excellent breakfast, even Scottish and Continental and great facilities inside the building for our use. I was there during the Fringe festival for four nights together with my family and we will definitely come back again. Thank you Mike, Susan and your staff for... More

My friend and I spent a wonderful couple of days here and LOVED it. I plan to take my husband next time for a romantic couple of nights! Everything was brilliant. The location (5-10 minute walk from the city centre). The building - awesome but oh so comfortable. The ambience, grand but intimate too. The breakfast rooom and lounge providing... More

We stayed at One Royal Circus while taking our son to Edinburgh University. Since he is on a four year course, I will be taking every opportunity to return in order to stay here again! We were welcomed by Carrie, who showed us around the house and said to make ourselves at home - which we did! Great room, lots... More

We really could not recommend this accommodation highly enough. We chose to stay here for our wedding night on the recommendation of friends and family and we were so impressed with the level of service, luxury and comfort. The room was wonderful, with an extremely comfortable bed and an outstanding bathroom and lounge area. There is a lounge for guests... More

This upmarket B&B, not far from the centre of Edinburgh, was the perfect refuge from the Festival and Fringe crowds! A feast for the eyes, sumptuous furnishings, wonderful bedrooms and a delicious breakfast (from the menu). This is a place for young or older couples who want a secluded escape. No comforts spared! Highly recommended!!

Quite simply, the best hotel experience I have had. To call it a hotel doesn't really do it justice, as it felt more like our own private mansion. Beautiful interiors, well presented room, great food and service...Not to mention, baby grand piano, stunning first floor guest room, pool table... If you are looking for a boutique hotel in Edinburgh, look... More

One Royal Circus has to be seen to be believed. It's elegant, sophisticated, classy, stylish, and unbelievably comfortable. It's in a perfect location, with restaurants and shops nearby. The atmosphere is relaxed, with kitchen and bar privileges open to all. The full breakfast was delicious, and yes, haggis was offered, and yes, it was delicious. I sincerely wish we could've... More
