Lovely room and castle! The bed was SO comfortable! The food at the restaurant and the breakfast were fantastic!

We were basking that we were staying at a castle. It was singularly enriching experience, one that I would simply like to experience again.

What a magical place. I liked that it wasn’t modernized and it felt like being in a home but a castle. The food was fantastic.

Perfect location. Very green. Friendly staff. Super clean.

Too far away from everything.

We booked a one night stay to have the "Scotland Castle Experience", and our experience was...ok. Beautiful property and stunning grounds. Our room was large, but a little disappointing for the price. There were also dead wasps all over our room. (not to mention a bug in my water glass in the restaurant later that night at dinner) Our dinner was pretty good, but instead of the beautiful, stately experience we were hoping for, the restaurant was in the basement and we were seated right next to the grill. It did not feel at all fancy...like, at, all. The food was very good (my husband highly recommends the haggis), so that helped. Was it worth the $898 CA(including dinner) that we paid? Sadly, no.

Restaurant was amazing, room was clean, and the property was beautiful. Definitely grab a drink and walk around the property if the weather allows.

dining in the castle was a wonderful experience

This property is a lovely restored manor house in a bucolic setting on the edge of Edinburgh. All were as expected and the level of service was very good. The food was very good, and service attentive and accurate. The front desk was accessible, accommodating and very helpful. The Bar was great fun.

It was really hamming up its Scottishness. Fake suits of armour, shields on the wall, animal skulls everywhere. Just wasn’t classy. The food was ok. They had tried with the vegan option - gnocchi with fried mushrooms - but could have done with some veg and a sauce. They’d run out of Pinot Grigio Blush. However the only real complaint was the price over £300 for a night, and it really wasn’t worth that. The bathroom was much lower quality than I’d expect for that price. Chipped laminate bath panel, faded chrome, holes in the tiles that had been filled in.

Very clean room, incredible grounds you can walk around, castle restaurant was incredible. Staff were SO friendly. We felt right at home

Lovely property and great location

Staff was great, food was amazing. Only issue we had was that it was cold in our room

The Melville Castle was a very enjoyable, relaxing stay. The food was excellent, we had breakfast both mornings and a very good dinner the one evening. The staff were friendly and helpful. We truly enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful location. Nice room - the shower head was a bit floppy though and bath plug I had to wedge some soap underneath to drain the bath. Great staff. Good breakfast (seemed a little small but I could probably have asked for two of everything with my Scottish breakfast.) Good parking.

My adult daughter and I flew in from Los Angeles and were so happy the bar was still open when we arrived at 9pm. The castle is charming, beautiful and homey feeling. Not stodgy or hoity toity. The beds are SO comfortable! We slept like a rock! Took the bus into Edinburgh the next day. Pick up us right outside the long driveway. You can leave your car at the end of the driveway. We would definitely stay again!

Unique experience outside the city. Convenient to public transportation and location for those travelling without a car.

We had such a wonderful time during our stay here! The staff was so accommodating and made sure everything was arranged for us that we needed. They really went above and beyond :)

Beautiful location and enchanting historic castle. Staff were efficient and the dinner restaurant was very good - one of the best lamb meals I've ever had.

Everything was absolutely fantastic. The rooms were wonderful, the staff was friendly and accommodating, the breakfast was delicious. Could not recommend staying here more.
