The Glasshouse Hotel

The Glasshouse Hotel in Edinburgh is home to the city’s only rooftop garden, offering an impressive blend of vibrant city centre energy and the tranquillity of a picturesque rural retreat. Set across two acres, this rooftop venue boasts stunning views over Calton Hill, a renowned World Heritage Site, providing a truly memorable backdrop for your special occasion.

Arriving through a striking 170-year-old Georgian archway, once part of the Lady Glenorchy Church, guests are welcomed into a contemporary space with several stylish rooms available for relaxing before the ceremony. There is access to private outdoor areas, including balconies and garden terraces, ensuring a special setting whatever the weather.

The Glasshouse offers a variety of spaces for your ceremony. Choose the lawn beside the romantic pergola, the terrace overlooking Calton Hill, the Brasserie with its beautiful floor-to-ceiling windows, or a ceremony set against the vast window of the original church. The venue can comfortably cater for up to 80 guests for a wedding breakfast and 110 for an evening reception.

Talented chefs create seasonal, locally sourced Scottish menus, and you can choose between a DJ, live band or a Ceilidh band as part of your celebration. All wedding packages include a complimentary bridal suite.
