Review
One of Edinburgh's newest five-star hotels, The Scotsman combines the old and new to wonderful effect. Located on Edinburgh's historical North Bridge, the hotel has been converted from the Scotsman Newspaper's baronial offices into one of the most stylish hotels in Scotland and much in the hotel, from crockery to rooms is still newspaper themed. The Scotsman brings together the efficiencies of today with the very best in Scottish hospitality. The primary desire was to create a hotel of comfort with an ageless design and there are some novel features throughout the building.
The guestrooms at The Scotsman are magnificent and each of the 68 bedrooms and suites offer a unique combination of comfort, contemporary design and the most innovative technology. All rooms offer in-room facilities such as DVD player, 28 inch TV, computer with Internet access and printer, trouser press and mini-bar, so you will want for very little. And for those seeking a serious level of comfort, the Penthouse at The Scotsman is the top suite in the city and features its own sauna, a private terrace and 360-degree views over Edinburgh and the surrounding countryside.
Strangely for a city-based hotel, The Scotsman offers excellent leisure facilities, including a uniquely designed 16-metre stainless steel swimming pool, sauna, steam room and an extensive collection of the latest exercise equipment. Guests can also choose from a range of over 40 relaxing body and beauty treatments. Offering a choice of dining options, the recently opened Vermilion Restaurant offers an intimate, sophisticated experience, while the North Bridge Brasserie & Bar, one of the coolest venues in town, serves a daily menu of salads, sushi and grills.
