went here for a Romantic stay, it was fabulous, every detail was just
the best! staff excellent, felt really special, breakfast was wonderful too, the staff lit every candle for us. Romance xxxxxxx saving to go back!!

My husband treated me to a stay at the witchery for my 40th birthday...it was amazing....from start to finish it was so atmospheric...deeply gothic and deeply sexy!!...we stayed in the inner sanctum...it was lovely...and a tiny bit spooky too...no ghosts tho...but the lights did flicker a lot!....its definately a place for romance and passion...i just hope queen victoria doesnt tell anybody what went on (if u have stayed there u will know what i mean)
You actually feel like you have been transported back in time when u get there...its all so ancient...but very stylish and luxuriant at the same time...ive never been anywhere like it....the little touches like champagne on ice ......hand made cookies.....chocolates..hand made fudge in a little gold ribbon tied box on your pillows...and we loved reading the guest book with all the little stories of romance that had happened to other people there too...just magical...we cant wait to go back next year and try another suite....take someone you love there and lose yourselves in this wonderful place

We have eaten at the Witchery several times always late September or early October to celebrate my partner’s birthday but this is the first time we have stayed. We booked the Sempill Suite. This is as previously mentioned on other reviews a historical building which is hundreds of years old, and that adds to the feeling of opulence.
This is not a hotel. It’s a restaurant with rooms but boy are they fantastic rooms. They are opulent, sensual, lavish, extravagant, luxurious, discrete and totally totally sexual.
We were shown to our suite by the famous Roxy. He had our Champagne already chilling on ice in the reception area, The Sempill suite is on the ground floor beyond a locked gate which gives you a feeling of totally security. There is a full kitchen which had fresh milk in the fridge. A truly stunning hallway leads you down to the sumptuous bedroom which is just decadence its self. The bathroom has a roll-top bath which is large enough for two. There are antiques in every room and the walls are covered in silks and velvets. This suite is utterly romantic. If you want to live like a king (or queen) for a day this is the location for you.
We also ate at the Witchery restaurant which is one of my favourite restaurants in Edinburgh The food was as always delicious and the service was excellent. I cannot rate the Witchery highly enough. We will indeed be returning next year. Do yourself a favour just go it is fantastic!!!!!!

We booked the Old Rectory for our Honeymoon, just stayed the 1 night, well you walk in and just think 'WOW'. It was just the perfect setting. You feel as if you are hidden away in the castle, so romantic we did not want to leave. We also booked a table in the Secret Garden which was superb. I had the lobster and belly pork which was to die for. The setting in the restaurant was so romantic. We will definitely be back next year to try one of the other suites.
