Rough Guide
"Seven riotously indulgent suites grouped around this famously spooky restaurant just downhill from the Castle."
Time Out
"Each of them is dark, theatrically gothic and lavishly furnished with antiques, leather and velvet, Victorian baths and grand beds, complementing the magical atmosphere at the Witchery dining rooms."

Frommer's
"This flamboyant and fabulously gothic bolthole is all your historical fantasies rolled into one. If it doesn't make your pulse race, quite frankly you haven't got one."

"Its extravagant baroque makeover has helped make it one of Edinburgh’s most lavish and over-the-top places to stay."
Star Service
"Though situated in a country club setting 2.5 kilometers south of Edinburgh center, this property is no conservative bastion dedicated to recreational pursuit."
