“The Townhouse presents a beautifully curated Victorian experience, where thoughtful renovations meet a genuine sense of hospitality, evident in touches like freshly baked bread on arrival and a tranquil park view. Its Leith location balances quietude with convenient tram access to the city, and the comfort of the rooms, particularly the well-appointed bathrooms and plush beds, makes for a truly restorative stay. I found the attention to detail, from the high ceilings to the quality toiletries, to be exceptional, creating an atmosphere that feels both grand and intimately welcoming.”
