"We stayed on after a conference dinner on board, and it was as well set up as we expected."

"The room was spectacular, unique and themed but luxurious through-and-through and we'd decided that the occasion warranted one of the mid-level suites - which did not disappoint."

Special Feature: Floating hotel experience on historic vessel
“Spending a night on the Fingal feels more like joining a private club than checking into a hotel. I appreciate its quiet location in Leith, removed from the tourist bustle, yet still close to the Royal Yacht Britannia. The nautical theme doesn't feel kitsch, but rather like a respectful nod to the ship's history, all while enjoying what I consider a modern, luxurious experience.”
