Dunstane City hotel
5 Hampton Terrace, Edinburgh EH12 5JD

A contemporary deluxe boutique hotel, just finished major refurbishment in May 2008 and is only minutes away from Edinburgh’s City Centre, financial district and all other city centre attractions. Its location is also handy for Murrayfield Stadium, home to Scotland's rugby team, as well as regular big name stadium concerts. Edinburgh Airport is a straight and easy fifteen minute drive from the hotel, while the city's Haymarket train station is also near.

The 18 en-suite rooms are stylish and contemporary, offering a choice of Standard and Superior room types. A team of friendly and motivated staff strive to ensure a truly memorable stay.

Guests at the hotel can take advantage of City's proximity to its sister hotel, Dunstane House's Skerries Restaurant and Stane Bar. Dunstane City has its own bar with a range of malt whiskies, as well as a garden conservatory, where you can relax over a coffee with a good book or the day's papers.

Rooms : 18.

Hotel information

When the new owners purchased the property for Dunstane City Hotel, little did they know that they were, at the same time, reinstating a historical connection between the property and Dunstane House.

It appears that in around 1867 one Archibald Shearer, a music seller in Edinburgh who was living at Dunstane House at the time, “erected a house or villa (now known as Number Five Hampton Terrace) agreeable to the plan approved of by the Feoffers of Trust and Governors of George Heriot's Hospital.” History has now come full circle, as the link between Dunstane House at 4 West Coates and Dunstane City at 5 Hampton Terrace is revived.

Room information

This stylish and contemporary accommodation offers a choice of standard and superior rooms. All bathrooms have a wonderful power shower and bath with luxury Molton Brown toiletries. There is underfloor heating in all bathrooms. Please see individual room details for a complete list of facilities on offer.

Food & beverage

Dunstane City does not serve dinner but guests of the hotel can take advantage of the proximity to its sister hotel, Dunstane House's Skerries Restaurant and Stane Bar, which is located directly opposite.

Dunstane City has its own bar with a range of malt whiskys, wine and beers, as well as a garden conservatory, where you can relax over a coffee with a good book or the day's papers.

The City Breakfast offers a lighter start to the day with juices, pastries, croissants, morning rolls, cereals, yoghurts and meat, cheese and fruit platters, or indulge in a full Scottish Breakfast. All served with a selection of fine, herbal and fruit teas and coffee.

Area information

Set back from the road on Hampton Terrace, a mainly residential area, the hotel is within minutes of Edinburgh's business and conference centre and city attractions. Its location is also very handy for Murrayfield Stadium, home to Scotland's rugby team, as well as regular big name stadium concerts. Edinburgh Airport is a straight and easy 15 minute drive from the hotel, while the city's Haymarket train station is also nearby. And for exploring further afield within Edinburgh, there is a regular bus and airport bus service from right in front of the hotel.

Within walking distance of the hotel:
- Haymarket train station - 5 minutes
- Murrayfield Stadium - 5 minutes
- Edinburgh city centre - 15 minutes
- Edinburgh International Conference Centre - 10 minutes
- Edinburgh Castle - 20 minutes

Travel information

Buses from the airport stop right outside the hotel, along with local services to the city centre commuting round Edinburgh couldn't be easier. We are a short walk from Haymarket railway station which has regular mainline services and connections from Edinburgh Waverley Station.

By Car:
From City Bypass and the M8:
- Follow signs for Murrayfield on the A8.
- Pass Murrayfield Stadium and Roseburn shops.
- Follow the road into the city centre for about 200 metres; the hotel is located on the right-hand side, coming into town from the west.
