bold design & distinct comfort
A modern take on Baronial materiality and composition provides the inspiration behind our unique guest rooms. Natural materials such as white oak and textured stone provide a tactile canvas for modern design classics, alongside custom-made furniture and handcrafted pieces. Charming wooden shutters are inspired by the original window fixtures of the historic Old Town and create a warm, homely atmosphere, which is further encouraged by the use of fabric wallpaper and soft woollen accents. Guest room bathrooms have been designed as modern ante-rooms, finished in luxurious marble, featuring solid stone basins and rainfall showers by Via Bizzuno accompanied with amenities from North Berwick based brand Laura Thomas Co.
Market Street Hotel is a great location as we were catching a train to London and it is right next to Waverley station. It is also close to the Royal Mile and plenty of great pubs and shops. We would definitely stay there again. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the beds were wonderful.

Best location in Edinburgh for walking. Across the street from train station, and terrific views of the city. Hotel was clean and modern. Comfy beds, lighted magnified mirror for makeup. Slippers and robes in room. Laundry service available. Stellar restaurant and bar. Friendly and very accommodating staff. Quiet room. We enjoyed it so much at the beginning of our 2 week travels around Scotland that we decided to go back and end our trip there as well. Book this hotel! You won’t be disappointed (and we stayed in 7 hotels on this trip and this was our favorite!)
