Hotel Highlights
About The Witchery by the Castle
Located at the top of the Royal Mile just yards from the castle gates, The Witchery by the Castle offers nine lavishly eccentric suites draped in velvets, tapestries, oak panelling, and gilded antiques.
Conceived by celebrated restaurateur James Thomson, each suite is a romantic retreat with roll-top twin baths, dramatic canopied beds, and historic hidden staircases.
Guests dine at the legendary Gothic dining room or the candlelit Secret Garden courtyard, enjoying rich seasonal Scottish gastronomy and exceptional vintage wines.
