WELCOME TO NO. TEN CAFÉ BAR Did you know that by choosing No. Ten Café Bar at Ten Hill Place Hotel, you are helping to advance standards for surgical patients around the world? Ten Hill Place Hotel is owned by The Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, one of the oldest medical incorporations in the world, with a history stretching back over 500 years. The College provides education and assessment for medical students, surgical trainees and consultants and supports research to advance standards of care for the future. Surgeons trained and assessed through the College here in Edinburgh bring life-saving and life-changing skills to all corners of the globe. Profits from the hotel and from events and functions held on the College’s premises are invested back into supporting the activities of the College and its Fellows and Members around the world. So on behalf of surgeons and their patients everywhere; thank you for choosing us! The photographs displayed around No. Ten Café Bar show the working College and the beautiful architecture designed by William Playfair. The sun logo you will see throughout the Hotel represents the four parts of the campus – the original Playfair Building, the Quincentenary Building, the King Khalid Building, and, of course, Ten Hill Place Hotel. The photographs on display are available for purchase. Please ask at Hotel Reception for further details.
