Rooted in thoughtful design, excessively good hospitality, and adeep connection to local culture, Moment is dedicated to transforming short stays into lasting memories.

A location rich in history

Set in the heart of Edinburgh’s historic Old Town, just moments from Edinburgh Castle and the Royal Mile, Moment George IV Bridge is where heritage meets high design. Once home to a prestigious language college, the building has been meticulously transformed into a boutique retreat — one that feels both effortlessly cool and undeniably local.

A collection of beautifully designed residences

Moment George IV Bridge offers seven distinctive apartments, each designed to blend
high comfort with refined aesthetics:

• Three studio apartments with breathtaking castle views
• Three studio apartments overlooking the city’s historic streets
• A sociable two-bedroom apartment with dual-aspect views, perfect for those seeking extra space

Every space is crafted with care, featuring a fully equipped kitchen, sophisticated interiors, and a seamless fusion of style and comfort—all designed to make guests feel like they’re true residents of Edinburgh, rather than simply tourists.

Hospitality, but more
What truly sets Moment apart is its philosophy of ‘Unreasonable Hospitality’—a level of care and service that goes beyond expectation, beyond the ordinary, and sometimes beyond what you would think could be possible.

“Our goal isn’t just to provide a place to stay—it’s to create an experience that feels deeply personal and unexpectedly exceptional,” says Laurence, Moment’s founder. With a track record of building and exiting a 70-unit short-stay business, Laurence brings a new perspective to hospitality—one that’s less about transactions and more about real human connection.

Experience the next generation of city stays
residencesMoment George IV Bridge officially opens today, and reservations are now live for those ready to experience a different kind of stay.
