My boyfriend booked a suite here for the night just prior to Christmas. Looks like an old gothic church from the outside but extends for miles above the cinema complex next door.

The room was fantastic. Carafe of whisky to match the name of the suite in the room. Candles lit all around the bath when we walked in/ music on etc etc. Beautiful bottle of champagne on ice. Loved the roof top garden - just a pity it was cold and dark. This must be a real haven in the summer.

Loved the fact that the visitors books are in the individual rooms. Nice honesty bar and comfy sofas.

During a delicious dinner in The Witchery by the castle (the most romantic place on earth) my other half got down on one knee and gave me a big rock!

I would highly recommend this hotel.

After reading other people's reviews, we were expecting great things of this Hotel. The standard of the rooms was very good. We did however request a twin room and rang in advance to check that it was a twin room that we booked and not a double and we were assured that it was definitely a twin room. When we arrived, however, we were shown to a double room. Within the hour, they had relocated us (although the second room wasnt as nice as the first one).

One or two small things, they constantly referred to one of our party in their notes and bills etc as a "Mr" when she was clearly a female, even when this was pointed out to them, it wasnt rectified.

The bar was a big disappointment. It closed early and there was no residents bar. We sat in the bar area after returning home on friday night and we were chatting quitely. We were moved by the security as there were bedrooms suurounding the bar. This is understandable, we obviously didnt want to disturb people but it is a bad layout for a bar to be right beside bedrooms, it means there is absolutely nowhere to sit (let alone get a drink) in this hotel after 11pm.

We never passed one other person in the Hotel (which felt odd) but we bumped into another guest in a restaurant by coincidence and he echoed our thoughts.... i.e. we were all expecting an exceptional hotel, in truth it was a "good" hotel. It might suit couples (who dont like drinking) but not families as it was so quiet.

Location wise, about a 10 minute walk from all the shops and bars, restaurants. The Omni centre next door was great though for the variety of restaurants.

We just stayed here for one night but wished we had booked longer. Staff are very well trained and not as obtrusive as in some hotels.
The room was small but luxurious and the food was excellent. Highly recommend this unique hotel

Wonderful hotel in the heart of Edinburgh. The glasshouse is a very nice hotel with a very friendly staff who try to bend over backwards for the guests.

I stayed in room 57 and was very big, clean, and quiet. We stayed at the glasshouse as a part of a large corporate event and all 45 people who stayed here had nothing but good things to stay.

I would reccomend this hotel to pretty much anybody, from vacationers, to business people.


Goodnesss all around here.
