how to get to roundtable hold elden ring
To get to Roundtable Hold in Elden Ring , you need to trigger Melina’s invitation by resting at a Site of Grace outside the starting area, or by progressing far enough to reach a qualifying grace near Stormveil or Liurnia. After that, you can access Roundtable Hold through fast travel from the map.
Fastest route
A common early route is:
- Rest at the Gatefront Site of Grace and accept Melina’s accord.
- Head toward Stormveil Castle or another area outside Limgrave.
- Rest at a Site of Grace in Liurnia or after the Margit encounter.
- Melina will invite you to Roundtable Hold.
Easy early method
If you want the quickest practical path, many guides point to reaching a grace outside Limgrave, such as the Lake-Facing Cliffs grace in Liurnia, or simply defeating or encountering Margit and resting afterward. Once the invitation is triggered, Roundtable Hold appears as a fast-travel location on your map.
After unlocking it
Once unlocked, Roundtable Hold is no longer something you walk into directly from the world map; you enter it by fast travel. Some guides note there’s also a shortcut from the list of discovered Sites of Grace if you prefer that over moving the map cursor.
In-game meaning
Roundtable Hold is the main hub area for NPCs, upgrades, merchants, and quest progress, so getting there early is very useful. It’s especially helpful for weapon upgrades and spirit summon upgrades.
TL;DR: rest at a Site of Grace outside Limgrave, accept Melina’s invitation, then fast travel to Roundtable Hold.
