The Inverleith Hotel is the closest bed and breakfast guest house accommodation to the The Royal Botanical Garden (known to Edinburgh residents as "the Botanics"), so if you want to stay close to the centre of Edinburgh, and also like the idea of leisurely strolls amongst refreshing green lawns and rare shrubs and trees, this is the place to stay!

Adrienne and Stephen Case, the owners and their manager Mat will be looking after you from check-in through to departure. All 12 bedrooms have either shower or bathrooms en suite, with pumped hot water and powerful showers.

Although The Inverleith Hotel does not have a restaurant there is a room service menu for light snacks. There are an excellent variety of restaurants close by, catering for all tastes.

Mat, who is an experienced chef, takes great pleasure in preparing your breakfast to set you up for the day - Full Scottish, continental and vegetarian breakfasts are offered. The hotel also has a small residents' bar and lounge (with many of Stephen's favourite malt whiskies).
