The Resident Edinburgh

Our newest hotel in Edinburgh, perfectly located in the heart of the city’s West End.

  • A guest looking out admiring the view from her Junior Suite room at The Resident Edinburgh, watching Edinburgh Castle, Princes Street Gardens, the West End and The Georgian New Town
  • A cozy bedroom features a neatly made bed with green and patterned pillows, a pink blanket, and a wooden headboard. A framed picture hangs on the wall, and sunlight streams in from a nearby window, creating a warm atmosphere.
  • A woman and two small children sit on a bed. The woman is reading a book to the children, who are wearing cozy, hooded outfits. The bed is adorned with green pillows, and a framed picture hangs on the wall behind them.
  • A modern hotel building with multiple stories is lit up in warm yellow tones against a dusky sky. The facade features vertical columns of windows, and a few cars drive past, creating light trails in the foreground.
  • Modern lounge area with comfortable sofas and armchairs, decorated with cushions and plants. Large windows provide natural light, and a small round table with flowers is centered. A bar area with stools and artwork is visible in the background.
  • Aerial view of an illuminated castle at night, situated on a rugged hill. The cityscape below is dotted with lights, and the night sky is partially clouded, enhancing the dramatic atmosphere.

    Perfect 25th Wedding Anniversary Treat

     

    I’ve been absolutely blown away by the quality of both the property and the extraordinary staff. The room is not only stunning, but they’ve thought of every detail from quality of teas on offer to absolutely wonderful spa-quality bath products. We will definitely be back!

    Highly Recommend

     

    Very beautiful newly opened Hotel in a perfect location. The check-in was easy and uncomplicated. The staff was very friendly. Super clean room with a stunning city view. From the hotel you could walk everywhere by foot. Caffès and restaurants are super close. In some spots, you get a discount on the menu due to the stay in the accommodation.
