Edinburgh has been undergoing something of a hotel revival of late, with slick new arrivals including the W Edinburgh and the upcoming Hoxton (due to open in early 2025) joining established spots such as Gleneagles Townhouse and the Balmoral. Added into that mix is boutique gem 100 Princes Street, which opened to much fanfare this April.
The first Scottish property from British hospitality group Red Carnation Hotels, it has a luxurious members’ club vibe, which you’ll notice as soon as you walk through the black lacquered door. That is, if you don’t walk past it first – there’s minimal signage outside and you need a room key to get in, which only adds to the air of exclusivity.
