The hotel is in a very convenient and central location. The hotel is unique in its own ways and as it was built over a historic site. Rooms are big and comfortable where mini-bar is all provided for. The interesting part of the hotel is that to get to certain parts of the hotel rooms (in my case which is on floor 1), you have to go to 3rd floor, walk across a long walkway of rooms before reaching a bar area in order to head down another 2 floors to get to my room. Kinda of inconvenient especially when you have big luggages to drag along. Saving grace was the hotel staff were all vert kind and during the check-in, the staff actually helped to move my luggage as he showed me the places.

Great location, great friendly staff, convenient route to parking garage (once we figured out which elevator to use after being jet lagged). Room was very clean, had a great view of Calton Hill, wish it was warmer to sit out in the garden (not so much in January) but overall very pleased with hotel. One minor issue with the towel heater not working.

Great location but little things let it down

Great location . Staff were amazing . Room was ok expected better . Shower tray leaked onto floor in bathroom pillows provided were too soft although we did not mention this I’m sure they would have sorted this. Duvet was a bit thin for time of year. Just little things you don’t expect form a 5 star hotel

We really enjoyed our stay at the Glasshouse. I personally think that there's a cutoff of how good a stay can be for the money you pay, and the Glasshouse is an expensive stay. But, as a treat on our wedding night, we had a great time and it was a lovely treat to sit on the rooftop garden that we've seen so many times from Calton Hill! Thank you again!
