My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our stay. Super friendly staff. Our room (Cozy room) was wonderful, comprising an extremely comfortable bed, a brilliant shower, and a well-laid-out room. The breakfast choice was superb and the freshly made options (that we chose) were super tasty. A lovely view from the restaurant (to the north) across the city added to a lovely breakfast experience. We did not want to leave. The whole experience was so good we are returning for another stay.

At check-in we were made to feel really welcome by Charlot, she was super friendly and gave us lots of tips and advice. Thank you. Room 6, the view and the room was awesome, no complaints at all with full facilities in the room. They have there own really good bar and steak restaurant, the location is perfect in the centre of Princes Street. All in all, fantastic value for money.

Room 108 (Velvet Cake) I absolutely loved my stay at BrewDog DogHouse Edinburgh! It’s unlike any other hotel I’ve ever stayed at. From the moment I arrived, I could tell this was going to be a different experience. The hotel has so many unique touches that make it stand out, like free pick & mix sweets and the fact that they offer both still and sparkling water for free - such a treat to have sparkling water available! There’s also Grind coffee available in The Atrium, but the coffee machine decides when it wants to work! There’s also plenty of games in The Atrium to keep you entertained. The room itself was packed with cool features. There was a vinyl player, a beer fridge, a guitar, and a mini bar stocked with plenty of snacks and drinks. It felt like a home away from home, but with an awesome BrewDog vibe. The staff were incredibly friendly and always greeted us with a smile, which made us feel very welcome. The biggest highlight, though, was the fact that you’re staying right at a BrewDog, and you can even get room service. The 24/7 hotdogs were surprisingly delicious and definitely had no right being so tasty at that hour! Thank you for also keeping the pins & postcard topped up. As someone who is purposely visiting BrewDog’s to get the BrewDog Visa stamped, I really appreciate it when pins & postcards are topped up. Overall, this hotel offers an experience that’s fun, unique, and packed with great little details. I’ll definitely be staying here again next time I’m in Edinburgh! Highly recommend it!

The location was absolutely perfect — right in the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town. Almost everything I wanted to explore was within a 15–20 minute walk, which made my stay super convenient. The surrounding vibe was lively yet charming, with historic streets and attractions all around. I really appreciated how easy it was to get around without needing transport.
