Just you.

The Garden Rooms Edinburgh is a self-contained studio unlike almost anything else in the city. Your own private entrance, your own walled garden, your own outdoor bath. Two minutes on foot from the Royal Botanic Gardens, and yet completely private, completely quiet.

Loved by couples marking anniversaries, birthdays, and proposals. A place people come back to year after year.

The Outdoor Bath
"It is highly recommended to enjoy a starlit evening, or even a snowstorm."

Double-insulated and filled fresh for every bath. No chemicals, no sharing. Positioned for complete privacy in the walled garden. Magical in any season.

Guest Reviews

"Didn't want to leave."

"I have never been more impressed with an accommodation. The photos do not do this gorgeous space justice. You can tell this place has been much loved by the owners and all those that have stayed here over the years."
Emma, Australia
"I was so impressed that I decided to propose to my partner in the garden. Everything from the bedding to the mugs is high quality. I cannot recommend this place more."
Keegan, New Zealand
"The outdoor bath after a long day walking Edinburgh was wonderful. Very private. It felt like we were miles away despite being in the middle of a city."
Rob, United Kingdom
"Sally's place was truly better than the photos. We had just gotten engaged on the trip and she left a sweet note and prosecco to celebrate. 10/10. Can't wait to go back."
Ivy, United States
"Overall our favourite of our 15-day tour of Scotland. It fulfils a Japanese design idea of erasing the boundary between indoors and outdoors. Relaxing and exhilarating at the same time."
Walter, United States
"A 5-star rating seems inadequate. The design is stunning and the rooms overlook a splendid garden, a real oasis of peace. Why stay in a hotel when there is this bijou retreat?"
Pam, Ayrshire
