Description

The Valentine - Townhouse Hotel is located in Edinburgh city center at the South-West corner of the historic Old Town. Edinburgh Castle and other top attractions are within a 15-minute walk. Free WiFi is available in all rooms.

Built in 1813, the historic property offers accommodations located over 4 floors accessed by stairs only. It is not a modern 'glass and steel structure', but a traditional stone built property. Rooms feature a digital TV, hairdryer, shower-room, heating, and street views over our gardens. Irons, scales and umbrellas are available upon request.

The Valentine is located within walking distance of all city center attractions, including restaurants, shops, pubs, and cinemas. Edinburgh International Conference Center is just a 10-minute walk away. This room-only property has no reception or meal options, but staff are present during each day to service the rooms, there are many breakfast options nearby. Most guests use a simple coded self-entry process for arrivals, especially helpful for late evening flights, with backup staff available of course by phone or in person in case of emergency

The Valentine is located in the city center of Edinburgh. We strive to provide our guests with a great experience, allowing them to explore the rich history of the city, while simultaneously providing them with comfort and cleanliness within a piece of Edinburgh's history.

In 1813, a Georgian town house had no running water, but all rooms (with the exception of Superior King Size with Separate Bathroom) are now of course ensuite or with private bathrooms. These facilities are generally sufficient rather than ample, our guests choose this property to be immersed in the historic culture of the city rather than for room size and sterile building design. We can't wait to welcome you and provide your ideal base for your Edinburgh stay!
