A beautiful cosy boutique hotel

Hotel is in a great location, in the suburb of Stockbridge with lovely local shops and bars and restaurants. Short walk into the city centre. It has a lively and comfortable bar and restaurant. Very good cocktails and excellent food. Large bedroom, nicely decorated and furnished with big roll top bath. Coffee machine, mini bar. Everything for a special break away. Friendly and attentive staff.

Only small things which wouldn’t impact decision to return. Bar quiz Sunday evening meant no table for pre dinner drink, but we went in the library. Full length mirror would be useful in bedroom.

delightful

Location is easy to go into the centre but equally in a lovely little area bursting with lovely coffee shops, book shops and other little germs. Great bus route right out the hotel and easy to use. Room is lovely charming and luxurious. very clean and comfy. Breakfast is delightful! Staff are super friendly and in general the whole stay was wonderful.

Nothing i did not like. If i was to be super picky it would be the size of the bed was small for their deluxe room and after previously staying in the other deluxe room we found the other bed to be nicer,

Iconic hotel in Stockbridge

Situated in the laid back Stockbridge area full of small local businesses and restaurants. Very popular bar and restaurant with excellent food. Rooms are large with big classic styled bathrooms. Great service.

A good stay and I would go back.

The staff were very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was very good and we were given a complementary drink, not sure why, maybe because our radiator did not work for a period of time. Our room was opposite the main road, very busy and noisy, not the fault of the staff but noise reduction could be considered.

Very nice and cosy hotel, in a charming area

We really enjoyed the bedroom, which was spacious and exactly like the pictures and descriptions. Furthermore, breakfast was good and the staff was very professional and nice. The hotel is in a very typical building and the area suited us perfectly (calm, with many coffee shops, about 20 minutes walking from the city center).

Two words: Wonderful stay.

We‘ve never stayed in a better hotel. We loved it from the beginning: The really nice and helpful staff, the lovely room with all you need, the bar and the food (breakfast and dinner are delicious!) and also the nice neighborhood with all its cute little shops and cafés. Best was of course the hotel dog Angus, whom I really took into my heart. We enjoyed our time so much and will definitely be back. Thank you for the wonderful stay.

The hotel combined busy restaurant /bar open to non-residents with quality experience for residents

Bedroom was truly luxurious probably the best ever. On arrival at reception (a hatch into bar) I was somewhat apprehensive that I had made a mistake in my choice. However as soon as we were shown the bedroom all doubts disappeared.

Nothing of any significance. Situated on a busy road so noise could could be an issue with some

We enjoyed our visit VERY much. Even the joyf crowd after cricket wasn’t heard in our room!

Great breakfasts every day! Perfect pancakes and perfect eggs Benedict. Had dinner only one night and it was excellent. Staff was so friendly and helpful

Our room was very warm even with window open and fan on. We think the small refrigerator was what made it so hot, the cupboard it was in felt like an oven ! The outside temperature was only 15-16 degrees centigrade

Enjoyed our stay but would stay somewhere more central and less expensive next time.

We only had a breakfast muffin as we thought breakfast was included for the price we paid. The muffin was adequate.

As I said we believe breakfast should be included and was pretty pricey at £17,50 each per day.

Complete Scottish experience

Fantastic hotel, worth every penny. The building itself is something else, full of history and style. Rooms are charming, pub/restaurant downstairs is almost always full of people who come there to enjoy drinks, foods, garden and view. Located in fancy Stockbridge, The Raeburn seems to be well liked by the locals, and that speaks for itself. The breakfasts were amazing. Guests can pick basically anything from the restaurant’s breakfast menu. Full Scottish Breakfast is highly recommended. Every bit of it was tasty and of high quality, including black pudding and haggis. Meals were all freshly prepared. In the evening going out to a pub is as easy as going downstairs. Very nice selection of beers, friendly staff. The Raeburn is stylish, lively and lovely. If we could stay a bit longer just for the hotel experience, we would.

Stockbridge is lovely but don’t expect to be able to walk to the city center from there. You have to take a bus. Otherwise no downsides. Oh, and the bus stop is right next to the hotel.

A wonderful and comfortable boutique hotel. I'd like to return soon :)

The staff was exceptionally helpful. The bed and shower were FANTASTIC. The food was delicious. And I really liked the appearance of the decor. A very lovely hotel in a great area of Edinburgh.

I must have stayed in Edinburgh during the only 2 hot days of the year. And therefore my room was a bit stuffy. By opening the single window, the noise from the street and restaurant was a bit intrusive, especially because I am used to living in a rural environment. But I am confident that during the rest of the 363 days, the temperature of the room would have been just perfect. :)

Exceptional

I cannot say enough good things about this hotel! First of all, the staff are wonderful and caring. They respond quickly and help you with whatever unexpected things happen. They were the kindest hotel staff I have ever met. The room was beautiful with a lovely view of the neighborhood market. The beds were comfortable and there were lots of little amenities that made it so lovely to stay here. The shower was glorious. Best of all is the restaurant downstairs. Some of the best food I had in Edinburgh came from that restaurant. They did a vegetarian/vegan special dinner for Sunday night and it was honestly one of the best vegetarian fancy meals I ever had. The vegetarian breakfast options were also wonderful. The location cannot be beat. Yes. It is a 25 minute walk to the royal mile but there is so much to do around Stockbridge. The Royal Botanical Garden was stunning and in walking distance, there is also Inverleith Park which was lovely for walking and playing, and then there was also the Water of Leith Walkway. There are also countless good restaurants and bakeries within walking distance, pharmacies, a post office, and a small grocery store. Such a great hub for family exploration in Edinburgh. My kids loved it and I did too!

Great place to stay and the bar is popular with the Stockbridge locals, will definitely come back.

Great location, Stockbridge is better than being in the busier parts of the city. An easy walk into the main tourist areas. The hotel also has excellent food so no need to go searching for restaurants.

Nothing to dislike.
