About Great Scots Hall
60 Classroom
120 Theatre
150 Standing / Reception
60 Cabaret
The Great Scots Hall transforms wedding receptions and corporate celebrations into something rather special. Standing beneath the latticed sandstone ceiling, your guests will feel the weight of history while enjoying every modern comfort. This 111-square-metre space right on the Royal Mile creates moments that Edinburgh's Old Town was made for. Natural light pours through large windows during afternoon drinks receptions, playing across traditional oak tables and the original stone features. When evening arrives, we light the open flame fireplace, and suddenly your formal dinner feels more like a gathering in a Scottish manor house. The room handles 150 guests for standing receptions brilliantly, or seats 120 comfortably for dinner. We've arranged it as classroom-style for 60, theatre seating for 120, and cabaret layout for 60, depending on what works for your celebration. Our kitchen team crafts menus that match your vision, whether that's canapés and champagne or a full Scottish feast. Vegan, gluten-free, and halal options come as standard, not afterthoughts. The bar stays open until 1am, mixing everything from classic cocktails to local whiskies. All the technical bits work properly too: the AV equipment connects first time, the Wi-Fi handles everyone's phones, and the air conditioning keeps things comfortable even when the dance floor fills up. Five minutes' walk from Waverley Station means your guests arrive easily, and Edinburgh Castle sits just up the hill for those perfect photo opportunities. Step-free access and lifts to all floors ensure everyone joins the celebration comfortably. Between the soaring ceilings, crackling fireplace, and prime Royal Mile location, the Great Scots Hall gives your event the Edinburgh setting it deserves.
