About The Principal Edinburgh
The Principal Edinburgh wears its history beautifully. Those Georgian bones, lovingly brought back to life by Goddard Littlefair, create something rather special – rooms where original oak panels frame cutting-edge presentation screens, where marble fireplaces share space with USB charging points. We're tucked just off Princes Street (two minutes from the tram stop, if you're wondering), which means your guests can actually find us without a GPS meltdown. Our events spaces work hard but never show it. That parlour that hosted your morning strategy session? By evening it's dressed for dinner, candlelit and ready for toasts. We've thought through the details that matter: proper blackout blinds for presentations, temperature controls that actually respond, acoustics that mean the person at the back can hear without the front row going deaf. Our team has orchestrated everything from tech launches to golden anniversaries – they know when to step in and when to fade into the background. Yes, we can arrange flowers, yes, the bar stays open as late as you need, and yes, those period features are original. But what guests remember is how it all comes together – Edinburgh elegance without the stuffiness. Let's chat about what you're planning.
