This post was written in partnership with W Hotels

Named Scottish Hotel of the Year 2025, W Edinburgh has cemented its place as one of the capital’s most striking destinations. Located in the heart of the St James Quarter, it brings together visionary design, panoramic views and destination dining, all with a playful twist on Scottish culture.

Experience glorious views of Edinburgh from one of the many stylish bedrooms and suites on offer. Suites combine contemporary style with subtle nods to Scotland’s landscape, while the hotel itself offers an excellent base that places Edinburgh’s historic Old Town, George Street and Calton Hill all within easy reach.

Something that sets W Edinburgh apart from other city hotels is its AWAY Spa’s Elements Suite, which offers a private thermal journey designed for complete relaxation. Dining is a highlight too. Champagne Afternoon Tea at SUSHISAMBA Edinburgh pairs a playful twist on tradition with dramatic rooftop views, while cocktails and nibbles at Joao’s Place bring the day to a stylish close.
