We loved everything about this hotel, our room was wonderful - clean, spacious and very comfortable, lovely decor in the room, we felt very at home. The location is wonderful, within easy reach of local amenities and a short taxi ride or pleasant walk into the city centre. We had dinner and breakfast at the hotel and the choice of food was excellent, the restaurant was beautifully decorated and had a great atmosphere. This was our first stay at the Raeburn but certainly not our last, it’s the perfect blend of boutique luxury and Scottish hospitality, highly recommended for anyone looking to experience Edinburgh in style.

Great hotel, very friendly and efficient staff. The room was well appointed with a large bathroom with separate shower and roll top bath. The surrounding area is vibrant. We were staying for only one night to meet up with friends but would definitely like to come back for longer.

Perfect. No Notes. I can't say enough good things about our stay at The Raeburn. I would call it a small boutique hotel with a restaurant, where we dined twice... each meal was delicious, especially the Raeburn burger. Both the hotel & dining staff was friendly & helpful. The room was beautiful, clean & QUIET! I can't emphasize enough how quiet the room was for the location in the city... really great. We opted out of housekeeping for a day, but they still left a little basket with water, snacks & TP outside our door... it's those little thoughtful gestures that matter! Also, the shower was amazing with high-quality towels & robes. It's located in a wonderful neighborhood with great shops & restaurants. It's about a mile from all the main tourist attractions, which might detour some but don't let it... the main tourist drag in Edinburgh is CROWDED, even in the "off-peak" time we visited in October... it was so nice to walk out of the craziness into the lovely Stockbridge neighborhood where the hotel is located. We really enjoyed our visit to Edinburgh & a lot of it was due to this exceptional accommodation.

Stylish, central property with very friendly staff and great decor! Only downside was lack of air conditioning but it was unusually hot during our stay so that is understandable. Will definitely be back!

It is really a lovely hotel with beautiful rooms and wonderful staff. My only knock is that the room was hot and difficult to cool down and the pub can be rather noisy.

Lovely stay. Location just outside of city centre easy to access via public transport there is a bus stop just outside. Room was large and walk in wardrobe and facilities to use if needed. Welcoming staff and just a lovely place to stay. The bar downstairs can get busy but we didn’t hear anything from our room. Would definitely stay again when I visit next.
