Overview

A warm welcome awaits you at this attractive 17 room family-run hotel, where the original Georgian style has been fully restored, offering comfortable Bed & Breakfast accommodation in a quiet cobbled street in the heart of Edinburgh, Scotland's beautiful Capital City.

The building housing the Regent House Hotel was built in 1805 by the architect William Burn who also designed many houses in Forth Street and a number of Georgian and Palladian houses in the countryside.

During the Victorian times it was run as a sea-captains' house while around the 1890s, the tea room was converted into a grocery shop.
