The skyline restaurant food was excellent value, well presented and cooked to perfection. breakfast was huge and the team who work in the mornings just so helpful. A super stay, Thankyou and we will be back soon. Special thank you to Billie a little gem at breakfast time.

Purchased first season tickets in 2007 after going for 3 years for myself & family for home games & travelled away watching Hearts until Covid19 & now back on the waiting list. I was treated to an afternoon at Tynecastle in May 2024 on the pitch to watch walking football. My mobility isn't what it should be, but I made it up to where I used to sit in the main stand until 2020. What can I write about my experience at Tynecastle? There is no other stadium like this on earth, I have found that it matches the same atmosphere on match day. Tickets reasonably priced, decent food at kiosks & helpful staff. Overall, a great afternoon out for the family. It's safe to say, and I think I can speak for us all that we love this place ❤️ HHGH

It's always a great experience whenever I go there to see a live match. The stadium is highly maintained, great atmosphere, great fan, you just only can love it. I also happen to take part in the procession from Haymarket, which was an exciting moment that couldn't be forgotten in a hurry!

Absolutely amazing experience. We just walk around, looking to have some pics of Stadium. Groundkeeper manage to get into Stadium, visit the Museum. There another nice guy has offered a "private tour", he has taken us to the stand, said some of the history and navigate us to the fan shop. We were realy Excited, happy to spent some pounds for souvenirs. Thank you, guys. You're make our day!!! Hearts of Midlothian has definitely catched our hearts.

History (from Wikipedia)

Tynecastle is an all-seated stadium, split into four sections known as the Gorgie Stand, Main Stand, Wheatfield Stand and Roseburn Stand. The Main Stand was rebuilt in 2017, replacing an older facility designed by noted football stadium architect Archibald Leitch.[5] The three other stands were constructed between 1994 and 1997, with all having a distinctive goalpost roof structure made out of steel tubes.[14] Unusually, the framework sits at the front of each stand, which means that the support towers sit within 10 yards of the corner flag, forming an arch over the stand.[14] The stadium floodlights sit on top of the support towers, angled down towards the pitch, like the lighting rigs used at concerts.[14] The Wheatfield Stand, which seats just under 6,000 people, slopes at just under 34 degrees, the maximum angle permitted.[15] The Roseburn Stand (School End) was completed in August 1995 and cost £1.4 million to build.[15] The Roseburn Stand seated 3,676 when it was opened,[15] but 280 seats were removed from both it and the Gorgie Stand when the pitch was lengthened in 2005 to meet UEFA requirements.[16] The Gorgie Stand, which was completed in September 1997, contains the Gorgie Suite.[16]
