We really enjoyed our stay at the Glasshouse. I personally think that there's a cutoff of how good a stay can be for the money you pay, and the Glasshouse is an expensive stay. But, as a treat on our wedding night, we had a great time and it was a lovely treat to sit on the rooftop garden that we've seen so many times from Calton Hill! Thank you again!

overall, i really loved my stay at the glass house. it was stunning and the location was great for exploring the area. everything was walkable. the bar was really good. the room was a good size. i think if i could offer one bit of criticism the carpets were a bit stained. but literally that is it. it was one of the best hotels we stayed at on our trip and the best part about it was the warm, welcoming and kind staff. every person there is just a truly good person with such great hospitality.

The air conditioner did not work in the room. I picked this hotel because it advertised AC. They admitted that they have always had issues with the AC. The front desk staff were not helpful but the concierge was very attentive.

I think the hotel was having a bad day the day we arrived as there was a lack of staff so service was slow plus there was a problem with the key coder which meant it was awkward getting into the room, Overall though everything turned out ok and we enjoyed our stay, food and drink were all very good, breakfast was also very good

Super hotel
The Glasshouse was a superb hotel. Myself and a friend decided to treat ourselves to a nice hotel for a theatre trip. The room was massive, very comfortable and had everything i needed. It was a lovely touch to be offered prosecco on arrival. The staff were beyond helpful and friendly and my bed was turned down for me when I returned to my room after being out at the theatre. The room and bathroom were very clean and comfortable with the usual complementary toiletries. 2 x complementary beers, soft drinks and water were also available in the mini fridge. In all a great and luxurious stay

Great welcome and superb location
Fantastic stay with a very warm welcome by both front desk staff followed by a tour from Harry the concierge around this lovely hotel and then shown to our room. He was also extremely helpful throughout our stay with recommendations etc It’s unusual meeting such an enthusiastic young person about their Jo and heart-warming, a lovely reflection of Scottish hospitality, thank you. Perfectly placed for the Playhouse Theatre and shopping. Would definitely recommend
