Bruntsfield Links, which the hotel and many guest rooms overlook, is 35 acres of open parkland which adjoins Bruntsfield Meadows and offers a green place for a relaxing stroll or a game on the short golf course.
‘The Neighbourhood l Kitchen – Bar – Garden’ is the hotel’s new bar and restaurant and offers guests a relaxed atmosphere, reminiscent of an elegant home, in which to dine; from breakfast through to evening meal, the menu includes a range of seasonal dishes also inspired by Scottish and local ingredients.
Enjoy pre-or post-dinner drinks at The Neighbourhood’s bar which serves a superb range of botanical cocktails. Meanwhile, the ‘secret’ garden, hidden beyond a foliage archway, leads to secluded, heated booths where guests can enjoy the fresh air while keeping warm.
The Brunstfield’s General Manager, Alistair Bruce comments: “Our boutique townhouse hotel was built in 1861 when the doctors who resided within the three adjacent Baronial double villas, including the well-known botanist and surgeon, William Craig who played a pivotal role in Edinburgh life. The Bruntsfield is rooted in this community spirit, and we continue that tradition today, welcoming and guiding new friends and visitors to all the treasures Edinburgh has to offer.”
