Prestonfield House Edinburgh

If it’s luxury you’re after, look no further than Prestonfield House Hotel. Originally built in 1687, and surrounded by twenty acres of stunning parkland, Prestonfield offers a uniquely opulent experience in a tranquil setting, just five minutes’ drive from the excitement and bustle of Edinburgh city centre.

Created by James Thomson, long famous in the hospitality industry for his award winning Edinburgh restaurant The Witchery by the Castle, Prestonfield has rightly made a name for itself as a hotel that offers indulgence like no other. Its quirkily seductive ambience has even earned Prestonfield House the honour of being described by The Sunday Times  as ‘…gloriously dissolute, more boudoir than B&B’. The Independent newspaper’s review called Prestonfield “The most glamourous hotel in town”. Tatler magazine, itself no stranger to the finer things in life, offers this concise description: ‘Triple A-rated spoil me factor’.

Opulence. Luxury. Indulgence. These are the words that crop up in the reviews again and again, and they sum up perfectly the experience on offer at Prestonfield House. With just 18 guest rooms and a handful of ultra luxurious suites, this is one hotel where individuality and stunning décor come as standard. All rooms are equipped with specially made entertainment cabinets, featuring large plasma screen television, DVD and CD player, and a minibar stocked with goodies. Broadband wi-fi is also supplied in each of the rooms. With luxury en-suite bathrooms, superb furniture and great views, Prestonfield’s rooms are the last word in style and comfort.

Dining at Prestonfield continues the theme of luxury and indulgence at the hotel’s acclaimed Rhubarb restaurant. Mouthwatering sample menus include delights such as hand-dived scallops, loin of Glenalmond roe deer, and lots more. Rhubarb’s creator James Thomson has won much admiration for the intimate fine dining on offer – described variously as opulent, theatrical, fabulous, and perhaps most importantly, delicious!
