A Legacy of Scottish Hospitality

Founded in 2009 by Alistair MacGregor, The Coastal Inn began as a vision to create an intimate seaside retreat that captures the spirit of Edinburgh's dramatic coastline. What started as a lovingly restored Georgian townhouse overlooking the Firth of Forth has grown into one of Scotland's most sought-after boutique hotels.

Today, under Alistair's continued stewardship, we blend heritage architecture with contemporary luxury, offering guests an authentic Edinburgh experience just steps from the sea. Every detail — from our locally sourced Scottish breakfast to our curated coastal spa — reflects our commitment to understated excellence.

What Our Guests Say

★★★★★
"Absolutely magical. Waking up to the sound of waves with Arthur's Seat in the distance — it doesn't get better. The staff remembered our anniversary and surprised us with champagne. We'll be back every year."

"We booked the spa package and it exceeded every expectation. The seaweed wrap was incredible, and the dinner that evening — Scottish langoustines with a Talisker pairing — was world-class. A hidden gem."
