When the Lady Glenorchy Church 170-year-old was converted into The Glasshouse Hotel in 2003, Scotland exchanged one iconic piece of history for another. With 77 bedrooms, this is a standout among luxury boutique hotels and is considered one of the finest places to stay in Edinburgh. This historic luxury hotel in Edinburgh features cosy-contemporary interiors, warm Scottish service and consistently spectacular views of the city centre, Calton Hill or the hotel’s two-acre rooftop garden.

In 2018 the hotel’s reception was fully refurbished; the crisp modern lines and vibrant lighting, creating a dramatic juxtaposition between the historic and gothic church façade, and the striking modern and luxurious space behind.
