The Bonham

The Bonham The Bonham is the most stylish boutique hotel in Edinburgh. With 49 individually designed bedrooms, N It has a fascinating history.
(1297)

The Bonham occupies a series of Victorian buildings in the West End of Edinburgh. The houses were originally occupied by well to do families and their servants, enjoying the privacy of Drumsheugh Gardens and the ease of access to everything Edinburgh had to offer. In 1939 the houses were sold and became collectively known as the “Private Clinic”, a private medical practice specialising in maternit

y care. Over the next 12 years many hundreds of babies were born on the premises, now fondly known as “Bonham Babies” when they come to visit.

1951 saw the sale of the Private Clinic to the University of Edinburgh who converted the buildings into Muir Hall of Residence for university students from outside the city. Following the sale of Muir Hall the Bonham Hotel opened in 1998 as one of the first boutique hotels in the city. After an extensive renovation in 2018 the hotel now offers guests one of the best places to stay in Edinburgh and is still true to the original aspiration of providing a homely and friendly base whilst visiting Edinburgh. Within a 10 minute walk of The Bonham Hotel you will reach the bustling shopping area of Princess Street, with many big name high street stores along with great views of Edinburgh Castle and Princes Street Gardens or turn on to upmarket George Street which is full of luxury restaurants, cocktail bars and designer shops.
