We visited Dalmahoy for what was already going to be a very special occasion, but the wonderful team at the Brasserie and James Braid Bar made it an experience we will never forget. ❤️|A special mention absolutely has to go to Marcel, Gosia, Akhil and Dona, who each played such an important part in making our visit so memorable.|Marcel was truly outstanding. At just 16 years old, working alongside his studies in art, he had such an incredible level of professionalism, warmth and attentiveness. He was an absolute credit to Dalmahoy and I have no doubt he has a very bright future ahead of him. He went above and beyond and genuinely made our experience better.|Gosia, the Assistant Manager, was an absolute powerhouse! She looked after us so incredibly well and made us feel completely cared for throughout our visit. Her warmth, professionalism and ability to make you feel instantly at ease were exceptional.|Akhil was absolutely wonderful — so sweet, friendly and full of personality. He gave us so many laughs and helped create some really lovely memories for us.|And then there was Dona, who holds a particularly special place in our hearts because she was the first person to serve us after we became engaged. 🥹💍 She was so personable, warm and genuinely lovely, and it felt incredibly special to be able to share such an important moment with her.|Every one of these wonderful people made us feel so special, and that is something we will remember for a very long time.|Dalmahoy should be incredibly proud to have such a fantastic team. They aren't simply providing excellent service — they are creating experiences and memories for people, and that is something really special.|Thank you Marcel, Gosia, Akhil and Dona for being such a huge part of what made our engagement so magical. You are all an absolute credit to Dalmahoy. ❤️|We will never forget our first evening as an engaged couple, and we couldn't have wished for a lovelier place or better people to share it with. 💍🥹

Beautiful hotel with lots on site. Room was lovely and spacious with everything you need, even a fridge which really came in handy to store food and drinks. Short drive or bus to Edinburgh City centre. Breakfast was fantastic and had something fir everyone. Only complaint would be the layout of the hotel was very confusing and was a long walk to my room with lots of baggage.

We stayed one night before we had to fly back home and were so glad we did. This hotel is massive and the room was very spacious. We had dinner here too which was great. It was so nice to stay in one place and relax before our big travel day. It’s not that close to the city or any attractions, but still highly recommend!

We recently stayed at Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club and found the property itself to be beautiful, with lovely grounds and plenty of character. Unfortunately, our experience with the hotel didn’t quite match the price we paid. The room was okay, but it felt dated. The TV was especially disappointing—it didn’t have any streaming services, which is something you’d expect in 2026. The hotel could definitely benefit from modernizing the rooms and amenities. Getting from reception to our room was surprisingly confusing, especially while carrying multiple suitcases. It wasn’t a great first impression. Our room was also located near what appeared to be the loading area, so we were woken up early in the morning by delivery and service noise. The biggest disappointment was the late checkout. When we checked in, the night manager approved a 12:00 PM checkout. However, the following morning, the day manager said there was no record of that approval and would only allow us to stay until 11:30 AM. It was frustrating to receive conflicting information. Overall, Dalmahoy is a stunning property with lots of potential, but for the price per night, the rooms and overall guest experience could use some modernization and better communication between staff.

Fallow dear in meadows, ducks running around, golfers and horses also running around... The hotel is a castle and huge. Stunning beauty all around. Old but classical large rooms. Easily fit two adults n two teens. Easy 6 min drive to a Park n Ride free parking where several Lothian busses took us into Edinburg city center. Will highly recommend staying at this heavenly hotel.

Great stay for golf and spa! The course was in excellent condition apparently and the recently opened Vien Spa was even better !! We stayed in The Hon James' Room in the main house with a lovely view of one of the courses. One observation was that the lift only went part way and there were 25 steps in 3 flights to reach the rooms, not ideal for anyone struggling with a disability. The breakfast was excellent as was dinner in The Pentland. The staff were all friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Housekeeping was to a high standard.

My partner and I had the best time here. It’s our first visit to Scotland from Jersey and staying at the Dalmahoy was just magical. Amazing grounds and amazing leisure area. The staff are wonderful. Special mention for Dorina who was our initial server at the petland restaurant for our afternoon tea. She was so lovely and attentive and later on during our stay we had a lovely chat in the cocktail bar. She was kind enough to to take some pics of us during our afternoon tea. She’s definitely an asset. I plan to write a more in depth review and mail it in as i am old school. Also thank you to Louise at the vien spa who was able to take me last minute for a 60 minute Swedish massage. She is a wonderful and did an amazing service. I was so relaxed and met my partner in the pool and had a sauna and steam and chilled out. Such a wonderful experience I’ll definitely be back and recommend you to all my friends

Stayed overnight as part of a golf event. The golf course was challenging but enjoyable, and the hotel itself was excellent. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable, with everything needed for a relaxing stay. Breakfast was very good with plenty of choice available. There was a short wait to be seated due to how busy it was, but once seated the service was efficient and the food was well worth it. Overall, a very enjoyable stay and I would happily return.
