Dunstane City hotel, Edinburgh

Dunstane City hotel, Edinburgh - Hotel Description

A contemporary deluxe boutique hotel, just finished major refurbishment in May 2008 and is only minutes away from Edinburgh’s City Centre, financial district and all other city centre attractions. Its location is also handy for Murrayfield Stadium, home to Scotland's rugby team, as well as regular big name stadium concerts. Edinburgh Airport is a straight and easy fifteen minute drive from the hotel, while the city's Haymarket train station is also near.

The 18 en-suite rooms are stylish and contemporary, offering a choice of Standard and Superior room types. A team of friendly and motivated staff strive to ensure a truly memorable stay.

Guests at the hotel can take advantage of City's proximity to its sister hotel, Dunstane House's Skerries Restaurant and Stane Bar. Dunstane City has its own bar with a range of malt whiskies, as well as a garden conservatory, where you can relax over a coffee with a good book or the day's papers.

When the new owners purchased the property for Dunstane City Hotel, little did they know that they were, at the same time, reinstating a historical connection between the property and Dunstane House.

It appears that in around 1867 one Archibald Shearer, a music seller in Edinburgh who was living at Dunstane House at the time, “erected a house or villa (now known as Number Five Hampton Terrace) agreeable to the plan approved of by the Feoffers of Trust and Governors of George Heriot's Hospital.” History has now come full circle, as the link between Dunstane House at 4 West Coates and Dunstane City at 5 Hampton Terrace is revived.
