"One of two townhouses comprising the Dunstane Houses property, this Victorian lodging beautifully marries period features with swish design-driven style. The vibe is guesthouse meets Soho House–style member's club, with all the perks of a boutique hotel. Sixteen elegant, refined rooms mix traditional (tweedy pillows and retro phones) with modern (chevron drapes and stylish tufted headboards) details. Tones like navy, turquoise, rust, and gold mingling against dove grays and creams. Handmade Vispring mattresses and Egyptian cotton linens ensure an excellent night's sleep, and bathrooms have underfloor heating." - Krystin Arneson
"Even from outside, we could tell that these fine, warm-stone, gabled Edinburgh mansions, located across the road from each other, were going to be a treat. Stepping inside, we knew for sure. Interiors were imbued with gorgeous natural colours, from copper rust to dark inky blue, and heather-pale tweed fabrics gave it a comforting sense of place. If there's a hint of the Orkneys, it's because the Mowat family – who oversaw the 2017 restoration of what were then called The Dunstane Houses – hail from those islands. The hotel is now in the hands of the Roseate Group, who have proudly preserved the heritage and history of the buildings and their previous owners. In The Roseate Building there's the restaurant with an intimate bar and lounge, and a garden terrace out front for sundowners when the weather is fine. In The House across the road, it's mostly suites and rooms, with a communal lounge area at the back. The rooms have kingsize beds with signature wallpapers and soft rugs, and the suites feature show-stopping bathtubs and sweeping bay windows. As is so often the way, the smaller details make it all the more memorable. Like piles of pillows you dissapear into, underfloor heating in the bathrooms, and classy tweed key rings. We also enjoyed browsing the illustrations and Orkney mementos on the walls of the common rooms, including black and white photos of fishermen and local characters – and, by coincidence, a portrait of this writer’s grandmother as a child. How's that for personalised service? Highs Beautiful decor and character in the rooms, along with fabulous showers and Fired Earth copper bathtubs A friendly welcome extended to families and dog-lovers by a warm, helpful staff We loved the specialist whisky and gin bar A modern take on Scottish classics in the restaurant The airport bus stops right outside Lows It’s a 20-min walk to the centre of town, but it's very well connected with a bus stop right outside and a tram station down the road The hotel is set back a bit on a busy road, so there is some noise in the front rooms Rooms in The House are across the road, but just as plush and comfortable" - Abigail Blasi
"Just ten minutes to the west of Edinburgh’s city center is a hotel that’s hardly a hotel at all. The Roseate Edinburgh is a pair of Victorian-era neoclassical houses, one across the street from the other, divided into a total of 35 rooms. We’ve seen smaller, to be sure, but it’s rare that a city hotel room so perfectly captures the atmosphere of a bedroom in a classic country house. The proprietors are from Orkney, and they’ve brought as much of the charm of the Northern Isles with them as they could — the only thing missing is an ocean view." - Tablet Hotels
