Floor-to-ceiling windows, beds so big you'll slumber sweet, the crispest Egyptian cotton bed linen, baths built to soak in long and deep…A lavender-scented roof garden, acres of sun-splashed patios and cool, shady verandas, eat and drink wherever you like…Service to your room day and night, shoes shined to a polished conker gleam, whiskies imbued with the character of their Highland home… You might be forgiven for assuming such a place must be a figment of your imagination. But behind the façade of the 150 year old Lady Glenorchy church, you'll find the clean, modern lines of The Glasshouse - a 5 star boutique hotel, but not as you know it. Voted by Conde Nast Traveller as one of the top 50 hottest hotels in the world. Winner of the 'Most Stylish Hotel' by the Scottish Style Awards. Winner 'Most Sexiest Hotel in Scotland' by Hotel Review Scotland. Awarded five star status by VisitScotland. **Important Information** Transport Initiative Edinburgh has temporarily suspended the parking bay in front of the hotel which allows you to easily park up in a taxi. This is a direct result of the road works being undertaken by the Edinburgh Council to install a Tram network. The suspension of the parking bay will last for nine weeks from the 04th of April 2009. Until the re-instatement of the parking bay, we would recommend the following: If you are travelling by taxi: Request to be dropped off at Picardy Place. Walk towards Leith Walk and cross the road by the Playhouse Theatre, The Glasshouse is located next door to the Theatre. The distance is approximately 40 yards. If you are travelling by car: We would recommend that you park your car at the NCP car park at Greenside Row in the Omni complex, and then make your way to the Hotel via the Omni Centre.
