Prestonfield House is like an oasis in central Edinburgh. It is a beautifully maintained period house with nice grounds. The staff were excellent. I had a party of Thai friends for dinner and they loved both the atmosphere and the dinner itself.
An outstanding hotel. No exaggeration to say this is our favourite hotel anywhere in the world. Stunning building, beautiful setting, incredible service.
Beautiful hotel, fantastic Christmas decorations, all magical. Staff couldn’t have been more friendly or helpful, all very welcoming. Evening meal and breakfast were delicious. Perfection.
Everything about his property was incredible. It feels like you’re in the country but it is a quick and inexpensive ride to get into the city. The restaurant is amazing and the entire staff were simply the best we’ve experienced at any stay we have booked. I can’t recommend Prestonfield House enough.
The property and services were second to none. Attentive, friendly and very professional. The entire staff made every effort at every level to make our stay comfortable and welcoming!!
Such a friendly welcome at this stunning hotel. Stayed in December so the festive decorations were out and stunning.
Room was extremely comfortable with so many luxurious finishes and touches.
We dined at on site Rhubard restaurant and whilst a delicious meal, found the service not as attentive as it could have been. But this was specific to the restaurant and not general to the hotel.
One of the best experiences that I’ve ever had. They truly made me feel like royalty for the day. I was traveling alone and they were especially accommodating.
