The best thing about The Glasshouse isn't the postmodernist fa de - a Gothic church merged with an adjoining leisure complex, though that's striking enough. Nor is it that each suite is named after a single-malt, decanted inside. And it's certainly not the female nudes on the bedroom walls. No, the ...

Not the Best Place to Stay in Edinburgh - user review
Although the hotel looks good, the suites have one major fault in that the toilet plumbing runs throughout all the rooms. Even if a floor below you flushes their toilet you can hear it in your room.

Honeymoon in Edinburgh - user review
We were married in Edinburgh and spent four days at the Glasshouse. The property exceeded our expectations room, staff, garden, and honor bar area.
