Braid Hills Hotel - A Victorian-era hotel with golf course access, panoramic city views, and event spaces
Braid Hills Hotel, a 3-star property rated 7.7/10 on Booking.com, occupies a Victorian building with distinctive corner towers and original stained-glass windows. The hotel offers 71 individually designed rooms, including Deluxe and Signature categories with views of Braidburn Valley Park, Edinburgh's skyline, and the Firth of Forth. Guests at Braid Hills Hotel can dine in the 1886 Restaurant, which serves seasonal Scottish cuisine in a conservatory-style space overlooking the park, or relax in The Edinburgh Bar & Lounge with malt whiskies and city views. The property provides direct access to Braidburn Valley Park's 11 hectares of green space and sits adjacent to Braid Hills Golf Course, designed by 1902 Open champion Alec Herd. Public transport stops outside the hotel connect to Edinburgh city center in 20 minutes via Lothian Bus 11, while taxis reach Waverley Station in 8 minutes.
Pros
The Victorian architecture retains original features like stained-glass windows and ornate cornicing.
Panoramic views extend across Braidburn Valley Park to Edinburgh's skyline and the Firth of Forth.
Direct access to 11 hectares of parkland and proximity to Braid Hills Golf Course.
Pet-friendly policy allows well-behaved dogs in designated rooms and dining areas.
Free high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the property and on-site parking.
Cons
Some rooms face interior courtyards rather than the scenic views.
The hotel's hillside location requires a 10-minute walk uphill from nearest bus stops.
“The hotel struck me as a genuinely comfortable spot, offering spacious, city-view rooms and a particularly friendly bar area; recent bathroom renovations add a touch of welcome modernity. Its location is quite convenient, right on a main bus route into the city centre, making Edinburgh easily accessible. A solid choice, in my view.”
