When the new owners purchased the property for Dunstane City Hotel, little did they know that they were, at the same time, reinstating a historical connection between the property and Dunstane House.

It appears that in around 1867 one Archibald Shearer, a music seller in Edinburgh who was living at Dunstane House at the time, “erected a house or villa (now known as Number Five Hampton Terrace) agreeable to the plan approved of by the Feoffers of Trust and Governors of George Heriot's Hospital.” History has now come full circle, as the link between Dunstane House at 4 West Coates and Dunstane City at 5 Hampton Terrace is revived.

Set back from the road on Hampton Terrace, a mainly residential area, the hotel is within minutes of Edinburgh's business and conference centre and city attractions. Its location is also very handy for Murrayfield Stadium, home to Scotland's rugby team, as well as regular big name stadium concerts. Edinburgh Airport is a straight and easy 15 minute drive from the hotel, while the city's Haymarket train station is also nearby. And for exploring further afield within Edinburgh, there is a regular bus and airport bus service from right in front of the hotel.

What Travellers Like

Hotel is within touching distance of Edinburgh's main attractions with excellent transport links (bus stop right outside / Haymarket train station a 5 minute walk). We stayed in a ground floor room at the back of the hotel which was excellent as it sits on a main road but absolutely no noise pollution at all. Room had everything we needed satellite t. Had full cooked breakfast in the hotel / lunch at sister hotel across the road & both meals were excellent. Service was also spot on with the staff being really friendly & always willing to chat..

A bus stop across the road is handy, the hotel is very nice and the staff could not have been more helpful. Furthermore the rooms are very large and also a good breakfast available early enough for our early start in the morning.
