Overall Ratings & Reviews Melville Castle

Excellent hotel , with lots of charm and character, outdoor seating was great in the gardens and bar is very comfortable and cosy. Restaurant was very nice and have yet to sample their afternoon tea. The staff were extremely professional and very helpful and i would highly recommend staying here

This hotel truly has a wow factor. Impressive from the moment you arrive. Michelle made the check in a delight. Perfect combination of professional and friendly. The room was incredible. It was a true castle experience. The house keeping staff added a level of excellence. Both dinner and breakfast were perfect. This is a property not to be missed.

We booked this location incredibly last minute as we needed a place to sleep, that was close to the airport, before an early morning flight. And it completely exceeded expectations. The moment we pulled up, I was ecstatic! IT’S A CASTLE! Honestly every little girls dream to sleep in a castle. Our room was adorable with a canopy bed and the decorations were so well done. I felt like I was in a dream. While we were only there to sleep, I would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone in the future because it’s such an incredible place.

Lovely estate. Staff were very courteous and professional. Geared towards weddings and short visits. Too bad stream at property not being utilized for trout fishing. Could be a sportsman paradise.

Beautiful

Booked a 1 night stay here whilst working away. Nice big hotel as youd expect being a castle, plenty of parking & great views around the large grounds. Room was spacious & comfy. Only real downside for me was the food, i had haddock, chips & mushy peas. Haddock was small, the peas felt like they were tinned peas mashed with a fork. Portion size along with price & then to find out theyd also stuck a service charge on the bill make it hard to recomend eating here. Overall id recomend a stay here, however id probably take a drive out & eat elsewhere.

Feels like stepping back in time staying here. It was lovely and quiet and the grounds are beautiful. Dinner was fantastic.. we had mussels and filet. Both were very good! The tub was huge which is my favorite. A nice retreat from the bustle of Edinburgh, relaxing and romantic. We want to come back.

The drive down was impressive and what a wow factor pulling up to the castle, the staff couldn't do enough for me. Fantastic

Lovely room, issue with shower was resolved quickly. Food overpriced

Nice and quiet, great staff

Our stay was beautiful! The castle is stunning, including the surrounding grounds. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a unique experience. My only 2 caveats: there’s weak cell signal within the hotel (but there is WiFi) and the location is a bit out of the way if you’re mainly sightseeing in the city centre. Uber will be rude about coming out here; one tried to guilt us into tipping more, claiming we had put the wrong address into our app. We preferred to use the taxi service the hotel is partnered with; Derek was incredible. The prices are nearly the same but the manners are much better.

Lovely hotel , staff were brilliant and the room was amazing.

Fantastic deco and neat.

Great stay! Welcoming staff and fantastic room.

Excellent property in a great location. Staff were welcoming and helpful

The views from the room was amazing. The only question I would ask why my room was more expensive for the second night? Room 301

The Castle

Staff was great, property clean, big grounds for dog.

Perfect spot it you don't want to stay in the city. Ubers and taxis into Edinburgh are easy to arrange. Was upgraded to the Castle Suite and absolutely adored our stay. Highly recommend.

Fantastic, can’t fault it
