 Georgian grandeur |
7 Danube Street Edinburgh EH4 1NN United Kingdom +44 131 332 2755 |
Built in the 1800s, this is a beautiful and tastefully decorated hotel full of antique furniture and period features. The owners not only run this magnificent Georgian house hotel but also live in it, so they give a genuinely warm welcome to visitors. There's a comfortable drawing room and all residents have access to the private garden. Everything about Danube Street shouts quality and elegance -and the breakfasts are something special too.

Cosy Edwardian class |

This intimate Edwardian boutique hotel is located on a cobbled street near Edinburgh Castle. The relaxed ambience of the individually-designed bedrooms and suites is matched by its beautifully-decorated and peaceful, fire-lit lounges. In the basement the hotel boasts one of Edinburgh's most popular brasserie restaurants, known for its fine Scottish/European fare and attentive service.

Luxurious west end residence |
6 Gloucester Place Edinburgh EH3 6EF United Kingdom +44 131 225 2720 http://www.christophernorth.co... |
This self-styled boutique hotel is situated near the West End and promises a luxurious stay for guests. It was the 19th century home of Christopher North, aka Professor John Wilson, the flamboyant writer, poet and moral philosopher. The building is an elegant Georgian structure with a gorgeously restored period entrance. The modern, renovated rooms are spacious and decorated with minimalist contemporary furnishings and lighting systems - a refreshing change to the generic decor of most hotels. Take up a complimentary pass to the nearby Caledonian Hotel health club before enjoying a full Scottish breakfast. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Georgian ambience |
42 Frederick Street Edinburgh EH2 1EX United Kingdom +44 131 226 1999 |
This recently converted Georgian building (c.1825) was re-opened in 1998 and has many of its original elegant features. The hotel has a traditional Scottish ambience - upright armchairs and varnished dark-wood furniture sit in rooms adorned with flowery curtains and patterned wallpaper. For visitors using Waverley Station and burdened with luggage the hotel is a mere 800 yards stroll or dash away. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Five-star Georgian beauty |
34 Great King Street Edinburgh EH3 6QH United Kingdom +44 131 557 3500 http://www.thehoward.com/ |
The Howard is a small but sumptuous Georgian town house that looks out towards the Firth of Forth from Great King Street and is located not far from Princes Street. Much of the original interior has survived, including the cornice-work and the breakfast room's hand-painted murals. The spacious rooms are elegantly and individually decorated with fine antique-style furniture and bathed in the ever-changing natural light streaming through the large windows.
