Everything about his property was incredible. It feels like you’re in the country but it is a quick and inexpensive ride to get into the city. The restaurant is amazing and the entire staff were simply the best we’ve experienced at any stay we have booked. I can’t recommend Prestonfield House enough.

Incredible service, the restaurant is excellent, as was high tea. Sort of walkable to downtown (45 minutes) and there are buses as well. About 30 minute cab from airport. Each room is uniquely decorated and very comfortable.

Relaxing festive break
Such a friendly welcome at this stunning hotel. Stayed in December so the festive decorations were out and stunning. Room was extremely comfortable with so many luxurious finishes and touches. We dined at on site Rhubard restaurant and whilst a delicious meal, found the service not as attentive as it could have been. But this was specific to the restaurant and not general to the hotel.

Really lovely. Staff were excellent, taking great care of myself and my dog Teddi, especially at meal times so that I didn't have to leave Teddi in the car while I ate. My only very minor observation was the bed being so high. Needed steps to climb in. However an excellent stay, grounds great for taking dog for a walk. Would definitely stay again.

This property was absolutely stunning. Its location close to everything in the old city, and yet in a secluded, tranquil environment is perfect. The food was excellent and the service was top-notch. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. We arrived early in the day after an overnight flight from Canada and they were so accommodating. While our room was not ready, which was not unexpected we were served a lovely breakfast. Our bags were taken care of, and when we arrived back from town, around 1:30 they made every effort to get our room ready as soon as possible. We will go back in a heartbeat and highly recommend Prestonfield House.

So extravagant, it's like walking onto the set of a Pride and Prejudice film! It's literally a service-obsessed hotel in every way without comparison. An environment of pure grandeur and comfort! An incredible collection of antique furniture, swathes of fabric wallpaper, plush curtains-the pillows are fluffy the lighting is soft and moody, and the housekeeping is second to none! Best night's sleep I've had in years! The food is unparalleled! I had a yogurt made with honey from local bees which live on the property! The rhubarb was also grown on the property and like nothing I ever tasted or will ever taste again! My son, who is a picky eater, said the salmon was so delicious, he felt like he died and went to hotel heaven! Every detail was painstakingly attended to. I made a brief mention of forgetting my umbrella, and no less than two seconds later, a hotel staff member handed me one before I jetted away in the cab they had called for me! I felt like a queen!
