BrewDog DogHouse Edinburgh features free bikes, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Edinburgh. This 4-star hotel offers room service, a 24-hour front desk and free WiFi. The property is 600 metres from Edinburgh Waverley station, and within 700 metres of the city centre. Room 108 (Velvet Cake) I absolutely loved my stay at BrewDog DogHouse Edinburgh! It’s unlike any other hotel I’ve ever stayed at. From the moment I arrived, I could tell this was going to be a different experience. The hotel has so many unique touches that make it stand out, like free pick & mix sweets and the fact that they offer both still and sparkling water for free - such a treat to have sparkling water available! There’s also Grind coffee available in The Atrium, but the coffee machine decides when it wants to work! There’s also plenty of games in The Atrium to keep you entertained. The room itself was packed with cool features. There was a vinyl player, a beer fridge, a guitar, and a mini bar stocked with plenty of snacks and drinks. It felt like a home away from home, but with an awesome BrewDog vibe. The staff were incredibly friendly and always greeted us with a smile, which made us feel very welcome. The biggest highlight, though, was the fact that you’re staying right at a BrewDog, and you can even get room service. The 24/7 hotdogs were surprisingly delicious and definitely had no right being so tasty at that hour! Thank you for also keeping the pins & postcard topped up. As someone who is purposely visiting BrewDog’s to get the BrewDog Visa stamped, I really appreciate it when pins & postcards are topped up. Overall, this hotel offers an experience that’s fun, unique, and packed with great little details. I’ll definitely be staying here again next time I’m in Edinburgh! Highly recommend it!
