to get started.

Thank you so much for your assistance with check out and making an alternative arrangement until we were able transfer to the airport. It was very much appreciated. Excellent service!

Laura, South Africa

The rooms are stunning but the power points are in strange places.

John, New Zealand

The rooms are very striking and certainly unique and the location is amazing. Really liked the fact that they had classical music on low in the room when they checked us in, it gave a nice ambience. We had a lovely waiter at breakfast who was friendly and chatty.

Catherine, United Kingdom

Originality of surroundings, space and comfort in the suit.

Keith, United Kingdom

Location is great, staff brilliant and the rooms ooze character.

Andrew, United Kingdom

We stayed at the Heriot Suite for our 10th anniversary and it was magical! Nice views from the old windows, huge comfortable bed, right next to the Edinburgh Castle, mind blowing decor and atmosphere. For the first hour we were just like giggly children in a royal fairytale. I think it will be very hard to top this hotel experience! Breakfast was delivered outside our door in a hamper per our request to not be disturbed. Took advantage of the bathtub twice during our one night stay, no regrets :) After check out we were able to leave our luggage in the hotel for the rest of the afternoon without extra charge.

Linda, Finland

Everything excellent! The staff, the room was amazing - like living in the midieval!, & the breakfast was delicious! Eggs benedict, florentine & we had almost everything we've asked for. The position right some steps from the castle on the Royal Mile!

Ioannis, Greece

Everything was top notch. Room was amazing. Food in the secret garden was deliscious and the full Scottish breakfast was oustanding.

William, United Kingdom

The food was sensational. The location unbeatable. The little extra touches (cookies, champagne, luxury bath products, fresh milk for coffee) made the visit extra special. The staff especially the night porter were exceptionally helpful and friendly. The Witchery is a once in a lifetime must.

Stay in the heart of Edinburgh –

The Witchery by the Castle offers a range of opulent suites in Edinburgh, each one unique with its own special features.

Lavishly furnished suites display gothic touches, with large oak beds and 4-posters, velvet-lined walls and flamboyant red and gold décor indicative of the style. There are separate seating areas and large bathrooms with free-standing silver baths.

Each of The Witchery’s 9 suites is different, but walk-in dressing rooms, love seats and tapestries set the tone. Some rooms overlook Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, looking down towards Princes Street, or across to the old town.

An indulgent breakfast hamper will be served in the room each morning or guests can choose to have a cooked breakfast served in the restaurant at no extra cost.

The Witchery’s seductive glamour has caught the attention of The Times, The Telegraph and Condé Nast Traveller, and many celebrity fans have enjoyed its suites. The impressive restaurant also showcases fine Scottish dishes in similarly decadent surroundings.

Old Town is a great choice for travellers interested in Old Town exploring, pubs and atmosphere.

This is our guests' favourite part of Edinburgh, according to independent reviews.

This property also has one of the best-rated locations in Edinburgh! Guests are happier about it compared to other properties in the area.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.8 for a two-person trip.

This property is also rated for the best value in Edinburgh! Guests are getting more for their money when compared to other properties in this city.

“A little underwhelming given the cost but certainly a unique experience”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Deluxe Suite - Heriot
- • Stayed 1 night
The hotel seems to lean on it's uniqueness. While the rooms are stunning at first glance the toilet in our room (The Heriot suite) had a loose seat which slid all over the place and was incredibly low. There was barely enough room between the toilet and the wall even for me (I'm 8.5st and 5ft 5). There were areas where the paint was peeling and there were water marks on pretty much every flat surface. The sofa bolster was broken so you couldn't really sit on without sliding off. Most of the staff were less than friendly and we got the general impression that we were tolerated rather than welcomed. It wasn't a negative experience but I wouldn't go back.
The rooms are very striking and certainly unique and the location is amazing. Really liked the fact that they had classical music on low in the room when they checked us in, it gave a nice ambience. We had a lovely waiter at breakfast who was friendly and chatty.

Just not convinced the value for money was there. The tourist market is clearly the target audience, a high class restaurant where the other guests weren’t dressed for dinner - T-shirts etc - just spoilt the occasion. Real shame as the staff were great and we had hoped for an amazing stay. I think a rethink on values and standards may be due. Left a bit flat and deflated sadly.
Location is great, staff brilliant and the rooms ooze character.

The only thing that got minus points was that every time someone walked at the stairwell it felt like they were right in our room or trying to get in. This was sort of expected though for the suites being in an old and creaky building. Sort of added a spooky touch to the stay.
