Glenalmond Guest House

In Newington, just over a mile from Edinburgh city centre—this Victorian 4-star guest house puts you close to the Royal Mile, University of Edinburgh, Arthur's Seat and the National Library of Scotland. Edinburgh Castle and Princes Street are a short drive away, and Edinburgh Airport is about 21.9 km out.

Victorian bones with modern comforts: nine guestrooms, some deluxe en-suite options with queen-size 4-poster or Rococo beds, and two deluxe 4-poster rooms (added 2018) sharing a private terrace and garden. Rooms include flat-screen TVs or satellite, private bathrooms with showers or bathtubs, complimentary toiletries, hairdryers, electric kettles and daily housekeeping.

Free Wi‑Fi throughout, a terrace and a small private garden area for the deluxe rooms. Onsite perks include free self parking and a cozy library—easy, unfussy comforts that keep travel simple.

Complimentary wireless internet and practical front-desk services such as luggage storage and a safe-deposit box make short business stays straightforward.

A complimentary buffet breakfast is served daily with an extensive menu—think traditional Scottish options like haggis and scrambled egg with Scottish smoked salmon, plus vegetarian choices. There’s also an onsite restaurant for other meals.
