About

Blending perfectly into the historic surroundings of the Royal Mile, Hilton Edinburgh Carlton is an iconic element of the city. The building dates back to the 1900s and is part of the impressive North Bridge which links Edinburgh’s Old and New town together, giving you easy access to countless shopping, dining, and entertainment. Once one of Edinburgh’s top department stores, the building was fully refurbished in 2016 to bring the décor back to its stylish best. Our modern rooms offer complimentary WiFi, ergonomic work areas, and Suite Dreams by Serta® beds with luxurious linens. Select an executive room or suite for extra space and amenities, including access to the Executive Lounge, with complimentary breakfast and refreshments throughout the day. For an indulgent afternoon tea and a vast bar menu, pop into Herbie More's bar and Restaurant. Twenty-four-hour room service is also available. Enjoy our Fitness center which is open 24 hours for the Guests.
