An Edinburgh hotel has been named as one of the 10 best new openings in the UK.
Virgin Hotel in the Old Town has been included on the The Observer’s list of the best hotels to open their doors in recent months. The plush accommodation on Victoria Street was the first European venture for global giants Virgin, who found success in the American market.
The Observer describes the city centre hotel as a “vibrant hub” for travellers and locals, after being restored from mid-19th Century India buildings. Rooms are referred to as “chambers” and offer a separate dressing area, scarlet minibars and old-school dial telephones.
