Information about the hotel

An outstanding hotel, steeped in history, perfectly located between Edinburgh and Glasgow. Excellent standard of accommodation, with 2 restaurants, a cosy bar and state of the art leisure complex.

Set within eye-catching private gardens and grounds, it is hard to believe that Edinburgh and Glasgow are within easy reach of Houstoun House Hotel. Nearby are many places rich in history, such as Linlithgow Palace, Hopetoun House and the House of the Binns. The Great Hall, Old Drawing Room and Library now form the hotel's dining room. The opulent oak panelling, family paintings and antiques all add to the restaurant's traditional aura. The establishment has been awarded two aa Rosettes and we are particularly renowned for our prime beef dishes. Informal dining is available in our Steakhouse Bistro, while in our vaulted bar, you can try any of over 100 malt whiskies by a blazing, open fire. Guests receive free access to the hotel's exclusive leisure club. It houses an 18 metre swimming pool, sauna, solarium, steam room and gymnasium.
