Edinburgh Hotel Guide - Hawthornden Castle hotels in Edinburgh, United Kingdom.

"Staff was extremely helpful, and we loved our view! Having a room with a terrace meant we had a smaller room which proved to be pretty tiny. Some nice amenities and good breakfast. Incredible location, so close to everything we wanted to do."

"The most friendly staff warm, comfortable room, clean soft bed, genuinely great experience. I'm definitely gonna book them again : D"

"What a delightful place! Fantastic bedding, really well equipped kitchen and an open fire! Perfect!"

"We were looking for a castle stay in Britain as kind of a "bucket list" item. The Melville isn't exactly a "castle," more of a retired/repurposed palace, but the overall experience was what we were looking for - suits of armor, antique paintings and so on. The restaurant is awesome! Great dishes and service! Staff was very helpful. Rooms mixed ancient decor with modern amenties like ample power outlets, modern bathroom, etc. Grounds have many paths for nature walks. Was a nice experience!"

"Staff were fantastic and very helpful, even late at night. Breakfast was nice too "

"The hotel is in a lovely building, but the decor in our room was odd and dated - it needed a bit of tlc and updating in our opinion. Lovely views of the city and beyond. We wish the blinds/curtains had been black out, as it got quite light in the morning. The big light in our room flickered a lot, so we couldn’t use it. Free parking was great. The room was cleaned each day and had basic amenities - kettle with tea and coffee, ironing board and a safe in the wardrobe."

"Sun Inn was fine, but there was road resurfacing that took place overnight. That noise was so intolerable, I had to check out after two two nights"

"The cottage was located in a lovely country setting and was very well appointed. The host is very close by and responsive. A guide provided information on all of the local amenities needed. Our stay was cut short by a day due to airline delays, so we were unable to explore the property as we had hoped. Very quiet and quaint. The stairs up to the sleeping quarters and only bathroom were not ideal for my 76yo mom, but we managed to minimize her trips."

"Fantastic 2nd honeymoon dinner in the Dungeon!!!! Took a great hike around the property the next day, with a visit to the falcon habitat. The Falcon caretaker was very friendly and knowledgeable. Having never seen a falcon up close, it was a real unexpected treat."
