The Stevenson House, The Hall

Welcome to the Stevenson House, one of Edinburgh's most unusual hospitality venues.

Having trained as an hotel manager in Lausanne, Felicitas Macfie realised the potential of the Stevenson House to be used as a venue for hosting lunches, dinners, receptions and conferences. The house retains all of its original architectural features and has the atmosphere of an elegant family home rather than a commercial venue.

The Hall links the two rooms via the original stone staircase with cupola on top, letting in sunlight and allowing views of the clouds as they drift by. As you climb the stairs, there is a unique collection of swords ready to fire anyone's imagination. Unusually, the Stevenson House still has the original butler's tray on the first floor, which today unfortunately has more decorative than practical use!
