Welcome to The Scott, where history intertwines with luxury in the heart of Edinburgh's Southside. Named after Alexander Scott, the esteemed original owner of the magnificent baronial house erected in the 1750s, our hotel echoes history combined with the elegance of today. Bed was amazing, I don’t remember last time sleeping this good. It’s like they hug you all night and take care of you. Other than that, staff was super nice, and there was a bus going to center in front of the hotel.

The Hotel Ceilidh-Donia is in a quiet residential area, just off Dalkeith Road, a major route into Edinburgh.
