Resident Hotels officially opened The Resident Edinburgh, a new and upscale hotel occupying a building once described as an “eyesore” by locals. The original structure was a 1960s office building, now repurposed thanks to a collaboration with Arup engineers to create a more modern and sleek appearance.
This property spans 164 guestrooms and suites, each equipped with luxurious ensuites, dressing areas and mini-kitchens with Nespresso machines. Most accommodations promise views of Edinburgh Castle or across the Firth of Forth to the Kingdom of Fife. Guestrooms and suites range from standard doubles to junior suites, the latter of which comes with a private balcony.

The hotel also features a welcoming lounge where guests are invited to relax by the fireplace and savor a glass of specially selected whisky. The Resident Edinburgh is also home to a library, a peaceful space adorned with books and comfortable nooks, ideal for reading and working.
“Our elegant new hotel also enjoys the verdant amenity of a fine garden square yet offers guests the best of the city right on their doorstep, many world-class destinations within a very short flat walk, unusual in a city with as many hills as Rome,” said David JM Orr, CEO, Resident Hotels Ltd.

The Resident Hotels currently operates six properties across the United Kingdom in addition to Edinburgh: Covent Garden, London; Kensington, London; SoHo, London; Victoria, London; and Liverpool.

May 23, 2025Relax, Rejuvenate and Heal at StolenTime
At the namesake luxury, 5-star all-inclusive resort in Saint Lucia, the concept of “stolen time” used to be reserved for couples escaping to canoodle, reconnect and perhaps rekindle in sumptuous accommodations during a romantic getaway on the lush Caribbean island. But when StolenTime by Rendezvous rebranded in late 2022 to welcome all adult guests and focus more on wellness, the philosophy expanded to encompass self-reflection, personal growth and enrichment. After all, time is our most precious commodity, one that’s finite and too quickly slips through our grasp; we need to find those moments that matter and make them count.

May 21, 2025Hotel Nice Beau Rivage Review
In the city Henri Matisse once called home — and where Musée Matisse holds his largest collection — Hotel Beau Rivage has a special connection with the artist, who first visited the hotel in 1916 and painted famous sea views from his room 89 in 1917. Today, framed Matisse prints — many brightly colored cut-out collages from the artist’s JAZZ collection — decorate its walls. Hotel guests also benefit from a partnership with the museum.
