Outstanding building on nice grounds. The restaurant provided a nice selection of well presented and tasty meals. Breakfast was very good. The ability to explore the various rooms, get a drink from the bar and sit in the lounge or library or other rooms was a great experience. The staff were very accommodating and catered to all of our needs. This property is a definite consideration for those visiting Edinburgh as the train service from Musselburgh(a few kilomtres away) gets you into Waverley Station in 8 minutes at a cost of less than 2 pounds per person. This was a godsend as we visited during the Fringe and Tattoo and hotels in the city were triple what we paid and available parking was almost non existent and very pricey.

This cottage is amazing. It ticked every box. We had one little problem with the drains: 1 phone call and someone came round within the hour and sorted it. That really is a good service

Perfect stay! The location is excellent, very close to interesting tourist attractions and a bus stop, which made it super convenient to get around. The room was outstanding — clean, complete, and extremely comfortable. The hotel staff were all very polite, welcoming, and always ready to help. Another great highlight is that the hotel has partnerships with local restaurants, offering nice discounts for guests. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely come back!

Room 108 (Velvet Cake) I absolutely loved my stay at BrewDog DogHouse Edinburgh! It’s unlike any other hotel I’ve ever stayed at. From the moment I arrived, I could tell this was going to be a different experience. The hotel has so many unique touches that make it stand out, like free pick & mix sweets and the fact that they offer both still and sparkling water for free - such a treat to have sparkling water available! There’s also Grind coffee available in The Atrium, but the coffee machine decides when it wants to work! There’s also plenty of games in The Atrium to keep you entertained. The room itself was packed with cool features. There was a vinyl player, a beer fridge, a guitar, and a mini bar stocked with plenty of snacks and drinks. It felt like a home away from home, but with an awesome BrewDog vibe. The staff were incredibly friendly and always greeted us with a smile, which made us feel very welcome. The biggest highlight, though, was the fact that you’re staying right at a BrewDog, and you can even get room service. The 24/7 hotdogs were surprisingly delicious and definitely had no right being so tasty at that hour! Thank you for also keeping the pins & postcard topped up. As someone who is purposely visiting BrewDog’s to get the BrewDog Visa stamped, I really appreciate it when pins & postcards are topped up. Overall, this hotel offers an experience that’s fun, unique, and packed with great little details. I’ll definitely be staying here again next time I’m in Edinburgh! Highly recommend it!

    Just very disappointing, nice looking pictures online but the reality is far removed. Probably ok for 4 lads looking for a place to crash and go into the city but the slightly more discerning amongst you will find this second floor property, complete with ghetto style entrance and stairways rather lacking.

    Only ever gone for the horse racing but already looking at a long weekend here as it is only a short hop into Edinburgh and not too far from North Berwick, so good central point. I still need to see more of the old historic Musselburgh too.

    I was born in Musselburgh and come to visit family.

    I was born in Musselburgh and come to visit family. However we do activities while here. Musselburgh is a typical Scottish town with the road going through the centre of shops. Like many towns a lot are closed. It is pleasant with the river running through and many places to walk. It is close to the beach which is relatively clean. It is a good based to get into Edinburgh and a bus service which means you don't have to take the car. On the other side is the coast road which takes you to some lovely places. Alao a bit of history there.

    The town seems a little run down in places but the racecourse and the harbour looked good. Train links to Edinburgh and the east coast. Close to A1 motorway and Edinburgh bypass. Has a good selection of supermarkets quite close together, Aldi, Lidl, Tesco and an Asda just off A1 motorway. Navigation around town fairly easy and driving through also.

    Needed transport into Edinburgh.

    Needed transport into Edinburgh. Had to ask reception about this although had looked online before hand but obviously not familiar with the area. Nothing available about this in a folder. One of the receptionist was new and didn’t know the answer but another did. Musselburgh was ok on day we visited but just a small town. Nice walk along The Forth of Firth to Joppa and Porto where you could get a drink/cake or an ice cream.

    Gorgeous historical building and grounds.

    Gorgeous historical building and grounds. You can get a bit lost around all the stairs, so be sure to ask for a ground or first floor room if you have needs and/ or like access to outside more. Room and bathroom was a little too hot and small but better than cold I guess! Just felt a tad claustrophobic in single wee room that was located through quite a lot of passage ways - good for some people but not for others. Just be sure to speak to the hotel about room needs. There was some sort of fan or something going on through the night, not sure if outside or other room. Hotel was a wonderland and staff are fantastic, kind and courteous. Due to the things I mention above I feel it was a little over priced. But I guess your paying for the up keep of such a beautiful historical building and its staff.

    The cottage is twee however I was expecting that, its charming and in keeping with the period of the property. The garden is indeed beautiful and being in time for the tulips was an extra bonus. Great location for exploring Edinburgh and East Lothian.
