The Royal Ettrick Hotel is a first class hotel located in a quiet residential area in the Polwarth section of Edinburgh. Just twenty minutes from the airport and ten minutes from the city center, the hotel enjoys a nearly rural setting, only minutes from major attractions on the adjacent bus route. The Royal Ettrick Hotel is a converted, Victorian house that now has 12 guest rooms, as well as a restaurant, pub and beer garden. Built in the 1860's, the hotel decor is traditional, with sloping ceilings, corner bath and attractive bedrooms. The conversion into a hotel came during the 1940's, and the Royal Ettrick is now one of Edinburgh's finest small hotels. The hotel restaurant serves fine Scottish specialties in either of its two conservatories, and there is also seating in the hotel's private garden.
The guest rooms are appointed with modern conveniences and amenities, including central heating, and en suite bathroom facilities. A complimentary Scottish breakfast is served each day. The Royal Ettrick is perfect for a more out of the way vacation. It is not just any other hotel, but an experience in the calm and relaxing Scottish lifestyle. The Royal Ettrick Hotel is only minutes to fine dining, shopping and entertainment venues.
