Dining

The Atholl started life as a private dining room for guests. Its elegant, flower-filled, Georgian setting, intimate atmosphere, fine wine list and expertly prepared modern Scottish menu attracted an enthusiastic and knowledgeable local clientele as well. Today, the Atholl has evolved into a sought-after restaurant that is one of Edinburgh's best-kept secrets.

The restaurant can only seat 14 people at a time, so reservations are strongly recommended.

Alternatively, you can dine in the comfort of your own room. Select your meal from the à la carte menu and dinner will be served to you by your dedicated butler. Room service is available 24 hours a day.

A range of options are available for breakfast, including a full traditional cooked Scottish breakfast, as well as a range of lighter options. For a little luxury and some well-deserved pampering, you can even choose breakfast in bed.

What Travellers Like

The service is impeccable and the personal service exhibited by the staff is something you will not get in a larger hotel. The downstairs contains the offices, dining room, and a large sitting room, all furnished with antiques.. Read review

The exceptional service started a month before arrival, when I received an email from the hotel asking whether we had any special requests for travel arrangements. We stayed in a twin room named the Hanover. I requested and was given a tour of the other grades of rooms. The Howard's website does not do their rooms justice. The room was spacious with a LCD television with free internet access.. Read review

The rooms were beautiful, comfortable and very luxurious. The bath was wonderfull with a giant claw foot tub and a first rate marble tiled shower. One night I called room service and asked them to make me a salad. Good location within easy walking of pubs and dinner.. Read review

Arrived about 8pm after delayed flight and was helped to a lovely Single Malt in the Drawing room. They took up my bags to my room and then when I was ready took me up. They upgraded me to The Charlotte suite which was the finest and most beautiful room I've ever stayed in.. Read review
