Lothian Chambers, Category B listed building on George IV Bridge in Edinburgh, Scotland

The Lothian Chambers features nine bays with a central section marked by Doric columns and an ashlar stone construction in Palladian style.

The structure, completed in 1904 by architect James Macintyre Henry, replaced the Royal Exchange building designed by John Adam in 1761.

The assembly hall displays a detailed frieze by William Birnie Rhind depicting mining, agriculture, and fishing themes above St Giles' Cathedral.

The building contains three meeting rooms available for corporate events, with an in-house catering service providing various dining options.

A modernist extension designed by Sir Robert Matthew in 1968 connects to the main building through an underground tunnel system.
