  Wonderful Castle Stay

  We enjoyed our stay at Melville Castle immensely! Regretting we only spent one night. From the time we arrived we were greeted warmly. Our rooms, with canopied beds, were beautiful and the beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed the decorations in the castle, really added to the experience. The bar was warm and snug and the bartender made very good cocktails. The breakfast was also very good. Loved… Read moreWe enjoyed our stay at Melville Castle immensely!

  A bucket list item checked off and a dream come true

  Melville Castle was like a dream come true. I have always wanted to stay in a castle during my travels. I'm so glad I was able to do so while visiting Scotland. The location is about a 30 minute drive from Edinburgh. There is an elevator but there are a few steps to enter the castle and throughout the castle. So, keep this in mind if you have a lot of luggage or heavy suitcases. Check in was smoot… Read moreMelville Castle was like a dream come true.

  Thank you for a great experience

  It’s hard to explain why I liked this hotel so much. The best I can do is simply say it was charming.

  WEDDING PARTY OUTSIDE OUR WINDOW :(

  I wish I could rate Melville Castle higher. We just stayed there last night. It is gorgeous, the whole thing is beautiful. Restaurant was perfection. But, the main point of a hotel is sleeping, which was terrible. There was a wedding booked. For some reason they placed us in a room facing the tented outdoor wedding party that lasted until midnight. I included a pic of the view from our room. The m… Read moreI wish I could rate Melville Castle higher. We just stayed there last night. It is gorgeous, the whole thing is beautiful. Restaurant was perfection.

  A great spot to stay near Edinburgh.

  Melville Castle left a highly favorable impression. It distinguishes itself not merely as a mansion, but as an authentic and aesthetically pleasing castle, complemented by a magnificent estate and a rich historical background. Our junior suite, while more compact than other accommodations, was particularly appealing due to its antique furnishings, an opulent desk, and an elaborately ornate mirror.… Read moreMelville Castle left a highly favorable impression.
