The Royal Mackintosh Hotel food hygiene rating
Hotel/bed & breakfast/guest house · East Lothian
The Royal Mackintosh Hotel passed its most recent food hygiene inspection. Scotland's scheme does not award star ratings, a pass means the hotel met the legal standard on the day it was inspected.
The rating: Pass
The rating dates from 21 January 2026, 5 months ago. Councils typically re-inspect higher-risk businesses every six months to two years, with well-run, low-risk places visited least often, so this is a normal gap.
