I recently stayed at the W Edinburgh arriving after an overnight train trip on the Caledonian Sleeper. The W is a stylish new hotel that mixes a sleek blend of modern luxury and stylish Scottish flair. Perfectly placed in the St James Quarter, it’s ideal for exploring the city, steps away from top restaurants, shops, and just a short walk from Princes Street and the Old Town. You get both the buzz of the city and the calm of a luxury escape. Our room was beautiful with a large window, plush bedding, and thoughtful touches. The bathroom was a highlight, with a rainfall shower and luxurious amenities. Every member of staff struck that perfect balance of being relaxed yet professional. Service was genuinely outstanding. We would highly recommend the W to travellers to Edinburgh!
