Gavin MacLennan, general manager, said: “One of life’s most enjoyable pleasures is to share delicious food and drink around the table in the company of family and friends.
"The Register Club has been missed by both our team and our guests and we are very excited to welcome everyone back as well as introduce a new afternoon tea menu.”
Cheval The Edinburgh Grand said it has introduced a host of stringent new hygiene and cleaning protocols and social distancing measures, in line with government advice "without compromising on the elegance and luxury for which the luxury serviced apartments are renowned".
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
