The perfect spot from which to explore the history of the medieval Old Town...
Sheraton Grand Hotel & Spa is nestled in the shadow of historical Edinburgh Castle and just a short walk from the city's famous shopping thoroughfare, Princes Street, it is situated in the heart of Edinburgh, one of Europe's most historic, yet cosmopolitan cities. It is the perfect spot from which to explore the history of the medieval Old Town and the architectural interest of the Georgian New Town.
The Grill Room is a Three-Rosette restaurant. The Terrace's tall windows look out across the piazza and fountains of Festival Square. The lounge bar is as popular for afternoon tea as it is for its exhaustive collection of malt whiskies. |

LOCATION

The menu combines light, creative food of exceptional value and includes delicious thin crust pizzas and pasta dishes. Both Santini Ristorante and Santini Bis are located in the ONE Spa building.

"Great Place to Stay."
We stayed at the Sheraton at the beginning of November. When traveling, we normally do not stay at chain hotels but choose local accommodations. This trip, the location and rates seemed attractive so we took a chance. It was well worth it.
Everything from the room to the food was first rate. We had a room overlooking the castle and to return at night after a day of sightseeing and enjoy a scotch while comtemplating the history we are looking at was priceless. The castle at night, all lit up...well you have to see it to understand.
The staff could not have been more accommodating. They put to rest the theory that a chain hotel is impersonal. My partner and I both work in management in hotels in New York City and would recommend the Sheraton without hesitation.

"Excellent Spa - reasonable food"
This Hotel is in an excellent location and good views of the castle are availalbe in certain rooms. The Spa facility is excellent, I would say one of the best in europe at a Hotel. The food in the hotel is reasonable although I would say you would be better going out to somewhere like the The Tower.
