Now settling down in the borderlines between Old Town and New Town, Market Street Hotel makes its mark on the already flourishing capital of Scotland, Edinburgh. The capital city is a popular tourist destination in the United Kingdom because it is considered a gateway to the past with its untouched medieval and classical architecture that is now being built upon, explaining the names of the Old and New Town. You now have a new possible place to stay if they want to be in a prime position to explore the ins and outs of the city.
The Hotel is marketed as a work of architecture. FG Stijl, the architecture company, takes pride in its interior use of brick-style walls paired with classic wood floors and curtains replaced with oak shutters. This is all to match the castle and fortress aesthetic that the city already possesses. Thus, tourists get a traditional experience in a place that is in touch with the city’s roots while also providing a contemporary feel with the sleekness of each room.
The exterior of the Hotel does not fall short of the designer’s intent as it incorporates an entrance with an expansive wall that pays homage to the dried earth of the “Nor Loch” lake that used to sit at the foot of nearby Edinburgh Castle. At the same time, an intimate courtyard lies next to it for lounging purposes. This is not the only lounging place offered as the 7th-floor of the Hotel provides the Champagne lounge that hosts an open kitchen, a fireplace, and views over the city’s World Heritage skyline.Thus, there is a little bit of everything for each visitor in their potential visit to the Market Street Hotel, whether they want to lounge in a space that echoes the past or experience the old and new views the capital offers. It is a new immersive experience that blends the best aspects of Edinburgh’s past and present
