Incredible service, the restaurant is excellent, as was high tea. Sort of walkable to downtown (45 minutes) and there are buses as well. About 30 minute cab from airport. Each room is uniquely decorated and very comfortable.

Such a friendly welcome at this stunning hotel. Stayed in December so the festive decorations were out and stunning. Room was extremely comfortable with so many luxurious finishes and touches. We dined at on site Rhubard restaurant and whilst a delicious meal, found the service not as attentive as it could have been. But this was specific to the restaurant and not general to the hotel.

Really lovely. Staff were excellent, taking great care of myself and my dog Teddi, especially at meal times so that I didn't have to leave Teddi in the car while I ate. My only very minor observation was the bed being so high. Needed steps to climb in. However an excellent stay, grounds great for taking dog for a walk. Would definitely stay again.

This property was absolutely stunning. Its location close to everything in the old city, and yet in a secluded, tranquil environment is perfect. The food was excellent and the service was top-notch. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. We arrived early in the day after an overnight flight from Canada and they were so accommodating. While our room was not ready, which was not unexpected we were served a lovely breakfast. Our bags were taken care of, and when we arrived back from town, around 1:30 they made every effort to get our room ready as soon as possible. We will go back in a heartbeat and highly recommend Prestonfield House.

So extravagant, it's like walking onto the set of a Pride and Prejudice film! It's literally a service-obsessed hotel in every way without comparison. An environment of pure grandeur and comfort! An incredible collection of antique furniture, swathes of fabric wallpaper, plush curtains-the pillows are fluffy the lighting is soft and moody, and the housekeeping is second to none! Best night's sleep I've had in years! The food is unparalleled! I had a yogurt made with honey from local bees which live on the property! The rhubarb was also grown on the property and like nothing I ever tasted or will ever taste again! My son, who is a picky eater, said the salmon was so delicious, he felt like he died and went to hotel heaven! Every detail was painstakingly attended to. I made a brief mention of forgetting my umbrella, and no less than two seconds later, a hotel staff member handed me one before I jetted away in the cab they had called for me! I felt like a queen!

Prestonfield House in Edinburgh is a magnificent retreat marries rich history with modern luxury. Its stately exterior and manicured gardens set the stage for the grandeur inside. Each room exudes decadence, blending historic charm with modern amenities and offering splendid views of the gardens or Arthur's Seat. Rhubarb's on-site restaurant is a gastronomic delight, presenting the best of Scottish cuisine using locally-sourced ingredients, complemented by an exquisite wine list. The staff embodies the perfect balance of professionalism and warmth, ensuring a pampered, personalized guest experience. Despite its tranquil setting, the hotel is conveniently located near Edinburgh's city center. Prestonfield House isn't just a hotel—it's an experience that blends history, luxury, culinary excellence, and top-tier service. We highly recommend this gem among Edinburgh's accommodations for an unforgettable stay.

Totally amazing hotel, the staff especially Jennie on reception was so very nice and very helpful. The whole experience and ambience of this truly 5 Star Hotel in Edinburgh was first class in every way. We have stayed in hotels all over the world, and I would say The Prestonfield, is on par with the luxury Hotels in Dubai. It's the best hotel we have stayed in the UK. Nothing was too much trouble for ANY of the staff. Still smiling at their warmth and friendliness, they truly make you feel at home. Could not fault anything. Thank you Mr Thomson for sharing your lovely creation with us. If you do go, Jennie and the one of the managers, (whose name I forget - sorry), will give you a lovely history lesson of how the Hotel emerged into what it is today. 5 Stars all the way !! Thank you, and we will be back !!

This was one of the best places I have ever stayed. Luxurious, comfortable, and opulent. The staff were so attentive and lovely. I wanted to spend all my time at the hotel. I will most likely visit again. The attention to all the details sets the bar high for every other boutique hotel. Oh and the history. Swoon and smitten!

Attention to detail could have been improved such as replacing toiletries in the bathroom and cleaning up after customers had left their drinks in the reception rooms would have merited the experience of staying in a five star residence.

Booked DBB stay for my wife’s birthday surprise. On arrival used the free parking ( normally valet parking not available due to Covid). Fantastic service and welcome.At the reception they couldn’t do enough for you and when explained it was my mistake for booking the wrong room style they had a look and offered us an upgrade to a suite which made it even more special for my wife.Where ever you went in or around the hotel the staff just couldn’t do enough for you.The room was amazing beyond both our dreams, comfortable, very clean.We have visited the hotel previously for a wedding and afternoon tea which were excellent. This is the first time of staying and will book and stay again, my wife was blown away with her birthday surprise.

Fantastic venue, attentive staff and the rooms and setting is just beautiful. The little touch's for our dog she absolutely loved. We had dinner here which was really great. Breakfast, however was pretty poor not much of it and very dry - no beans with a "full Scottish" and hard boiled poached egg....
