Live music performances four nights per week
Extensive whisky selection with over 200 varieties
Private Devils Cut venue with exposed brick and mirror design

“The dedication to Scottish culture sets this boutique hotel apart, especially with rooms named after famous Scots and a bar boasting an impressive whisky selection; live music further enhances the atmosphere. While some reported issues exist, I believe its prime location near Edinburgh Castle and distinctive theming provide a unique base for city exploration.”
