Our hotel is home to a 19th century church, now known as Greyfriars Hall; it has been beautifully restored and repurposed as a venue for your special day. Combined with our massively talented local suppliers and property dressers, it makes for a truly unique experience, with plenty of space for live entertainment and dancing until the early hours. We can also offer preferential rates for friends and family to stay over in our hotel. We've got so much to offer inside Virgin Hotels Edinburgh, you'll experience a world that revolves around you - whether that's our signature chamber design or our drinking, dining and entertainment areas that you'll never want to leave.
