The George Hotel, Category A listed hotel in New Town, Edinburgh, Scotland.
The George Hotel is a luxury hotel on George Street that uses five connected Georgian townhouse facades with preserved architectural features. The building offers 240 rooms, restaurants, and conference facilities for various needs.
The building was founded in 1775 as a place for lodging and has served visitors for more than two centuries. Over time many famous people such as Robert Burns and Sir Walter Scott stayed there.
The hotel displays Georgian architectural style mixed with Scottish elements visible throughout its rooms. Local materials and traditional decorative details shape how the interior looks and feels.
The hotel sits within walking distance of Edinburgh Castle and Princes Street Gardens. Access is convenient for sightseeing in the old town and nearby areas.
