Scottish National Gallery

About

Constructed in the mid 1850s, the stunning neoclassical building in the historic heart of Edinburgh also serves as wonderful venue for dinners, receptions and private parties. 

Guests can enjoy champagne, cocktails and canapés in wonderful surroundings, plus an exclusive private view of the Gallery’s treasured art collection in the company of an expert curator. 

It's quite an experience to dine amidst some the world’s most outstanding works of art, from Rembrandt and Raphael to Vermeer and Velazquez, while the Impressionist Rooms offer an exquisite backdrop for more intimate dinners. 

The Hawthornden Lecture Theatre is a dedicated conference space that provides a stylish modern setting for seminars, meetings and award ceremonies.
