Tucked into a converted Georgian mansion on George Street, Eden Locke brings a softer, more residential rhythm to Edinburgh's New Town. New York architects Grzywinski + Pons reworked the eighteenth-century stone shell into 72 apartment-style suites, each with its own kitchen, lounge and walk-in closet, so a single night feels as easy as a month-long stay. Pastel walls, curved wicker furniture and brass fittings soften the building's original austerity, while the ground-floor cafe-bar, Hide & Son, wraps guests in greenery and knitted cushions. It's a quiet, plant-filled retreat a few steps from the city's busiest shopping street, built for travellers who want the comforts of home without giving up hotel service.
