Independent Report
generalOpened in September 2001, the hotel now boasts one of the finest spa and health clubs in Europe. Spread over six floors, One Spa includes a 19-metre ozone friendly swimming pool, aromatic baths, hydrotherapy pool and 13 treatment rooms offering E'SPA holistic therapies. It also includes a rooftop outdoor pool that looks out over the Edinburgh skyline. It is an extraordinary experience. The health club has sauna and steam rooms, as well as a state-of-the-art fitness studio. It should be noted that children up to the age of 17 are only able to use the swimming pool within One Spa between the hours of 3pm and 5pm each day and also between 8.30am and 9.30am on Saturday and Sunday. Only the gym and pool are available at no extra cost to hotel clients.

lobbyThe lobby is dominated by an impressive, sweeping staircase and is tastefully decorated with tartan fabrics.
exteriorThe hotel is modern, with a large conservatory area situated on the side with views over the square.
restaurantThere is a choice of restaurants. The more informal one looks out onto Festival Square, and with its conservatory it gives a very bright, breezy feel. The more formal restaurant is darker and very elegant, retaining the characteristics of a Scottish baronial mansion. In addition, the hotel now also has an Italian brasserie as part of the new spa complex.
roomsThe rooms are large in size and are kept in very good condition, as are the bathrooms. The rooms have a traditional decor and furnishings, accented in tartan colours.
locationJust off Festival Square, close to the castle and a short walk from Princes Street, this attractive hotel is perfectly placed!
