YOUR EDINBURGH HOME-FROM-HOME<\/strong>
\nRefined and relaxed; our 35 rooms and suites, inviting Orcadian spirit, all-day lounge & honesty bar mean you\u2019ll immediately feel at home.<\/p>\n

AN URBAN SANCTUARY<\/strong>
\nNamed after places in our owners\u2019 homeland, Orkney, our suites are amongst the biggest in Edinburgh. All with sweeping views, four have roll-top baths overlooking the Pentland Hills and Edinburgh\u2019s iconic cityscape \u2013 the perfect sanctuary to retreat to after a day out.<\/p>\n

TAILORED STAYS<\/strong>
\nOur newly introduced pre-arrival questionnaire means we can completely tailor your stay from the get-go. From scheduling housekeeping to your in-room drinks preferences and dining options; we\u2019ll do our very best to make sure your stay is everything you want it to be.<\/p>\n

FAMILY-RUN<\/strong>
\nOur welcoming, neighbourhood spirit and family-run approach creates a unique hotel experience in the heart of Scotland\u2019s capital. For years, the heart and soul of the Dunstane has thrived thanks to our dedicated team of long-standing employees who help make the hotel what it is today and look forward to welcoming you to their home.<\/p>\n

THE SPIRIT OF ORKNEY IN THE HEART OF EDINBURGH<\/strong>
\nSubtly mixing the old and the new, our evocative interiors combine the neoclassical design of old-town Edinburgh and the rugged, neutral tones of Orkney. Throughout the hotel, artworks curated by local artist, Nicky Brooks, of the iconic Red Door Gallery on Edinburgh\u2019s Victoria Street, depict scenes of Edinburgh and Orkney, with a special Orkney collection curated by students of Edinburgh College of Art on show in the lounge.<\/p>\n

YOUR GATEWAY TO SCOTLAND
\nOur unique location means you are both a moments\u2019 walk from the city centre and a short drive to some of Scotland\u2019s most sought-after beauty spots with complimentary parking included in all stays meaning we\u2019re perfect for road trips or small car rallies. Indulge in afternoons exploring our magnificent surrounds; from the fabled peaks of the nearby Pentland Hills to the mystical shores of Cramond Beach, Gullane or Elie, all within an hour\u2019s drive of the hotel. Plus, our owner Derek has one of the biggest collections of prestige and classic cars in Edinburgh which means you can even explore the city James Bond style. Check out our Dunstane Drive experience for more details.<\/p>\n

SCOTTISH PRODUCE, WHENEVER YOU WANT<\/strong>
\nOur celebration of Orkney goes beyond our interiors and here at The Dunstane Houses our guests can have a taste of our homeland throughout their stay. Try our Orkney kippers for breakfast or our \u2018Taste of Orkney Platter\u2019 for dinner which comes with a choice of over 100 whiskies. Plus, our Ba\u2019 Bar is home to over 30 Scottish gins, an impressive selection of craft Scottish beer and we\u2019re the only hotel in Scotland to off the 40-year old Highland Par whisky. Yum!<\/p>\n

FLEXIBLE BOOKING<\/strong>
\nWe want to welcome back as many old and new friends as soon as possible. That\u2019s why, for the rest of this year, we\u2019ll be offering fully flexible rates, a 24-hour cancellation policy and no prepayment required, plus 30% off stays in July and August. We are ready when you are\u2026<\/p>\n
