Overview

Scotland's Most Romantic Hotel - award-winning dining and nine gothic suites at the foot of Edinburgh Castle

Dining

The Witchery's restaurant operates in the candlelit Original Dining Room and the Secret Garden, both decorated with gothic woodwork and red velvet. It serves award-winning à la carte dishes throughout the day, focusing on classic Scottish ingredients. An extensive wine list offers premium selections by the glass or bottle.

Suites

The Witchery Edinburgh provides nine unique suites, each with a different layout and gothic décor such as large oak beds, four-posters, and velvet-lined walls. Separate seating areas and walk-in dressing rooms appear in most suites, while bathrooms contain free-standing silver baths. Some rooms overlook the Royal Mile, Princes Street, or Edinburgh's old town.

Location

The witchery sits 1 km from Edinburgh Waverley station at the foot of Edinburgh Castle on the Royal Mile. Camera Obscura and World of Illusions is within a 5-minute walk, and the Scottish National Gallery is 2 km away. Its central position means guests can reach most historic landmarks on foot.

Breakfast & Amenities

Each morning, guests receive an indulgent breakfast hamper delivered to the suite, or they can choose a cooked breakfast served in the restaurant at no extra cost. Complimentary amenities such as Nespresso machines, luxury chocolates, and Dyson hairdryers are provided in every room. Concierge service and daily housekeeping are included, and luggage storage is available for early arrivals.

Awards & Recognition

The Witchery by the Castle holds the 'Scotland's Most Romantic Hotel' award and has been covered by The Times, The Telegraph, and Conde Nast Traveller. Its suites have hosted numerous celebrity guests, and the restaurant's décor and service continue to earn press mentions.
