About the hotel
The Scott, located in Edinburgh's historic Southside, is a luxurious hotel housed in a magnificent baronial building erected in the 1750s and named after its original owner, Alexander Scott. The hotel seamlessly blends its rich history with modern elegance.
Each of the 37 uniquely designed rooms offers a blend of historic charm and contemporary amenities. Guests can enjoy Elite™ Lily mattresses with fine linens, and exquisitely designed private bathrooms featuring rainfall showerheads, Laura Thomas spa products, fluffy towels, bathrobes, and slippers. In-room conveniences include an OPAL capsule coffee machine with Coffee Conscience compostable pods, award-winning Novus teas, espresso makers, flat-screen televisions, complimentary wireless internet, digital programming, phones, and safes. Some rooms also offer garden views.
Dining at The Scott is a culinary experience at Bonnar’s restaurant, where Head Chef Pier Berretta crafts Scottish-inspired dishes. The restaurant boasts floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking a private garden, set in an elegant 18th-century baronial house ambiance. Guests can also unwind in the hotel's lounge bar, which offers specialty Gins, Champagnes, Whiskies, and a curated wine list by L’Art Du Vin, all within a meticulously restored setting brimming with original features. Full breakfasts are served for a fee on weekdays from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM and on weekends from 7:30 AM to 10:30 AM. Room service is available during limited hours.
For fitness enthusiasts, guests have access to two exceptional nearby gym facilities: the Pleasence Sports Complex Gym, a 20-minute walk away, offering sports-specific and traditional gym areas; and Oxygen Fitness Studios, a 3-minute walk across the gardens, equipped with rowing machines, spin bikes, and free weights.
The hotel welcomes dogs; guests planning to bring pets are kindly requested to notify the hotel after booking, as charges are applicable.
Bonnar's restaurant and the lounge bar are open Tuesday through Saturday. On Sunday and Monday evenings, guests can enjoy drinks and dinner at the sister property, The Scholar Hotel, located next door.
The Scott offers free self-parking and a 24-hour front desk with a safe deposit box.
