5 Star Hotels in Merchiston, Edinburgh

"The layout is odd.. you enter on the ground floor… then take a lift to the third floor… then walk a long ways to a set of stairs and go down tone or two flights to your room. Later we learned there is a service elevator that one can use. "

"Excellent apartment in a great location. "

"Great property and friendly staff. "

"An exceptional hotel adding to a great day on board Britannia "

"Outstanding location, rooms and grounds!"

"It was very easy to arrive, public transport is 2 min walking distance, facilities are good, mattress, linen and towels were clean and staff is friendly (just not the girl that speaks Spanish, she is a little bit rude)."

"Prestonfield House is like an oasis in central Edinburgh. It is a beautifully maintained period house with nice grounds. The staff were excellent. I had a party of Thai friends for dinner and they loved both the atmosphere and the dinner itself. "

"Great place to stay in terms of access to the city. It’s near a transportation hub so access to getting places is easy. Great restaurants nearby and an easy walk to the castle, royal mile, etc…. The place was modern in stylings. The flat was on the 3rd floor (there is no lift) which wasn’t really an issue for us and we liked the space and view. "

"A very comfortable stay and will return again "

"Absolutely loved our stay at the property. The room was lovely and the property is very close to many amenities. Would absolutely stay here again. The host was extremely friendly and welcoming. 10/10 in every aspect "

"We couldn’t get in touch with the owner, and hand to contact Hotels.com to be able to get information about the check in. You’re really paying for the location with this place. It’s really close to everything including the old town, the castle and Princes street garden. But the kitchens smells bad, probably the fridge. The rooms smells like mold and I’m allergic… and there was some others hair all over the bathroom. I think what bothered us the most though was that there was absolutely NO HEAT....

"Overall is good, near to any groceries places. "
