Following a £10 million refurbishment, the former Holyrood Hotel has relaunched as the Edinburgh Marriott Hotel Holyrood, redefining luxury in Edinburgh’s historic Old Town.
Rebranded in February 2024, this stunning property combines modern design with Marriott’s signature hospitality, making it a prime destination for business travellers, event planners, and leisure guests alike.
Located within Edinburgh’s UNESCO World Heritage site, the hotel is perfectly positioned near the Scottish Parliament, Palace of Holyroodhouse and the Royal Mile.
With top visitor attractions, vibrant shopping, and scenic walking routes at our doorstep, guests can immerse themselves in the city’s best, while enjoying unmatched comfort and convenience.
A modern revival
Upon entering the Edinburgh Marriott Hotel Holyrood, you’re welcomed into the newly transformed Greatroom Lobby, designed as both a social hub and flexible workspace.
This multi-functional area is perfect for informal meetings, catching up over coffee or unwinding with a cocktail. Whether enjoying a light lunch, grazing platters or afternoon tea, the Greatroom provides a stylish setting to work, connect and relax.
The hotel’s 160 newly refurbished rooms and suites are an oasis of comfort, featuring sleek wooden floors, plush beds, and spacious en-suites with drench showers.
Paying homage to Edinburgh-born artist Sir Eduardo Paolozzi, the hotel décor combines local artistic influences with modern aesthetics, paired with cool neutral tones, creating a serene and inviting environment perfect for both relaxation and reflection.
Marriott Bonvoy® Elite members benefit from access to the new M Club Lounge, a tranquil, exclusive space open 24/7 for Platinum, Titanium, and Ambassador members. The lounge provides complimentary refreshments, high-speed Wi-Fi, and a serene environment for work or relaxation after a busy day.
