Scottish design, calm West End stays

The Resident Edinburgh brings a polished, distinctly Scottish mood to the West End, surrounded by Georgian and Victorian streetscapes and an easy mix of shops, cafes, and restaurants. Inside, the palette nods to the Saltire and Craigleith sandstone, while rooms add subtle local touches like thistle motifs and commissioned Edinburgh artwork. Each stay comes with a signature mini-kitchen featuring a Nespresso machine with complimentary capsules and BRITA-filtered water on tap.

This is a very nice new hotel in a great location. Lots of restaurants around and walking distance to a number of interesting places. The staff was wonderful and responded to our requests quickly. The only downsides are - small rooms and no restaurant so you have to venture out for every meal. But otherwise a lovely stay.

I specifically would like to commend Ed! Amazing from start to finish! Probably the kindest person I've ever encountered at a front desk. So wonderful! Our stay was comfortable and the housekeeping staff were also lovely. Genuinely would recommend The Resident to anyone. Well placed, staff were great, would stay here any time I'm in Edinburgh.

As always, our stay was amazing. Staff are incredibly helpful and the rooms are pristine. We always stay here when visiting Edinburgh. This was the first time we had any issues though, the lamp in the room wasn’t working and the toilet flush seems to get stuck. These are very minor issues and everything else was amazing! The rooms are equipped brilliantly. Thank you!
