Everything was incredible! My partner and I found it impossible not to fall in love with this hotel, everyone who loves to collect valuable moments of an unusual experience in their life, I strongly advise you to spend at least one night in this magical hotel

In order to embrace the haunting and exoteric atmosphere the place is very well crafted. Furniture, statues, bathroom, even the bed, which needs a 3 steps stairs to be “climbed”, everything throws you back to the 18th century.

Unique and amazing experience, great idea with different theme of the rooms (in our case Guardroom), beautifully furnished, great location

The room was beautifully decorated and an experience in itself. Staff were lovely. I'd recommend this hotel for an amazing experience but not for comfort.

The suites are amazing. Spotlessly clean and fascinating to look at. All of the staff we have encountered have been exceptional. The Lamb wellington in the restaurant is to die for!

Stay in the heart of Edinburgh – This neighbourhood is a great choice for travellers interested in Old Town exploring, pubs and architecture – Check location Excellent location - show map

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 architecture.

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

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

“Characterful stay in an historic building next to Edinburgh Castle”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 2 nights
- • Submitted via mobile
The spacious bathtub was not ideal for showering, though there was an attachment for that purpose. The bathroom sink was recessed in a relatively narrow opening in the wall, making in slightly awkward for me to shave. We considered these to be only minor deficits in an otherwise extraordinary experience.
Staying at the Witchery was like stepping back in time, in the better connotation of the term. Our suite was accessed by a spiral staircase, and was furnished in pieces from the 17th to the 19 century. The spacious bathroom had a back-lit stained glass window. The walls were covered in tapestry and the floors with Persian rugs. The old wooden floors creaked welcomingly as we walked about the rooms. The sheets on the canopied bed were the softest we’ve had the pleasure to sleep on. On the other hand, our musical entertainment was supplied by “Alexa”, and the living/breakfast room had a flat screen TV. We had one dinner and both of our breakfasts here, and both the food and the service were exemplary. The receptionist, Rebecca, and the porter, Mark, who helped get us on our way early in the morning, both deserve special mention. At the start of our stay, there were two minor functionality issues, which were both attended to effectively, once we reported them. We’ll definitely stay here again, perhaps trying one of the other suites.

Can’t say that given the five star that it is, the staff’s level of operation is very smooth. The person who showed me the room initially wasn’t all that friendly; the tub when I filled it with water had a strand of hair and soap residue floating (had to wipe the tub with a towel before use); the room was cold and temperature couldn’t be changed; the WiFi information was hard to find in the “welcome package”; the breakfast brought up to the room, which is nice in itself I guess, was disappointing.
Thematic ambiance, unapologetic opulence- it’s worth trying for a night

The bed was narrower than most hotel beds and narrower than our bed at home (ours is 180cm wide). The shower was awful. An overhead shower placed inside an antique bath. The nylon shower curtain would stick to my body every time I moved or needed to retrieve shower gel etc ( there was no shelf for toiletries inside the shower curtain).
The room was beautifully decorated and an experience in itself. Staff were lovely. I'd recommend this hotel for an amazing experience but not for comfort.

The ONLY thing I would change which is more of a personal preference is a separate shower. But that’s mainly because I have an artificial leg so it’s a bit tricky for me to manoeuvre without being attacked by the shower curtain.
The suites are amazing. Spotlessly clean and fascinating to look at. All of the staff we have encountered have been exceptional. The Lamb wellington in the restaurant is to die for!
