About Bank Hotel hotel
Boasting a privileged position on the corner of the Royal Mile and just a 2-minute walk away from Princes Street, this hotel provides easy access to all the history and culture Edinburgh has to offer.
Originally built in 1923 as a grand Bank, the building has been extensively renovated to provide a luxurious hotel, whilst still retaining many of its original features. The Bank Hotel also underwent further refurbishment in February 2008.
The Bank Bar, timeless in design with glorious wood panelling and a cool relaxed atmosphere, offers a wide range of drinks and an extensive daily food menu. Popular with locals and tourists and having an outdoor seating area on The Royal Mile, The Bank Bar ensures that you absorb the buzz of this historical city and you won’t want to leave!
