Edinburgh Luxury Guide: Little Black Book Edinburgh

WELCOME TO LITTLE BLACK BOOK EDINBURGH, YOUR EDINBURGH LUXURY GUIDE

Thank you for visiting our unique and invaluable guide to Edinburgh luxury. Whether you’re a luxury loving local, or a visitor to Scotland’s capital, check here first for information on the very best luxury Edinburgh has to offer. We’ve been Edinburgh locals for many years, and your behalf, we’ve profiled restaurants, bars and brasseries, luxury hotels, shopping experiences, events, festivals, and some of Edinburgh’s finest private event venues. We never write about anything we haven’t experienced first-hand, and if it isn’t good enough, it doesn’t make our Little Black Book. We’ve gained a reputation for being fiercely fussy over the years, and that is part of what makes this such a useful resource to enhance your visit to Edinburgh.

EATING OUT IN EDINBURGH

If you’re planning to dine out in Edinburgh, you’re in for a real treat. Edinburgh has a higher concentration of restaurants per head of population than anywhere else in the UK, meaning if you want it, the Edinburgh Restaurant scene is likely to be able to oblige. We helpfully star-rate all our dining reviews on food, service, and ambiance, and we’re 100% unpaid.

Whether you’re after a fine dining experience, or something more casual, we’ve got it covered. Or perhaps you prefer the clink of bone china over afternoon tea

LUXURY EDINBURGH SHOPPING

Edinburgh does luxury shopping a little differently to most cities. Even Princes Street’s flagship store, Jenner’s is a little lower key than its London equivalents. Along the likes of George Street, a wealth of smaller boutiques rub shoulders with the big names.

Down smaller, cobbled lanes like Thistle Street, independent shops run by masters of their trade will offer you an individual standard of service that will make you feel like you’ve struck luxury gold. However, the same can be said of bijoux designer district Multrees Walk, where the warmth of welcome belies the glossy storefronts.
