Sheraton Grand Hotel

Frommer's Review

On the grounds of a former railway siding near Edinburgh's Usher Hall, Traverse, and Royal Lyceum theaters, this six-story postmodern structure houses a glamorous hotel and office complex. The Sheraton is elegant, with soaring public rooms and rich carpeting. Boasting a good location in the proverbial shadow of Edinburgh Castle -- as well as state-of-the-art spa and leisure facilities (including a rooftop indoor/outdoor pool) -- the hotel pretty much has it all. The spacious, well-furnished units have double-glazed windows; glamorous suites are available as are rooms for travelers with disabilities. The castle-view rooms on the top floors are best (and most expensive). The main restaurant, with views of the Festival Square, presents well-prepared meals and a lavish Sunday buffet, while an annex houses the Italian Santini restaurant below the spa.
