FAQs about hotels in Edinburgh

A Feast for the Senses

A city of heritage, heart and of course Hogmanay, Scotland’s capital is vibrant and edgy. Whether or not you come for one of its many festivals, Edinburgh is quite simply a feast for the senses.

The wealth of Edinburgh sights ranges from Holyrood Palace to the Botanical Gardens, Princes Street to the Royal Mile. Overseeing them all is majestic Edinburgh Castle. Be there at sunset on a clear day to see the city below bathed in a warm, orange glow. Simply stunning.

Wandering the streets, the smell of fish and chips wafts by, with the unique twist of salt ‘n’ sauce – a must-try variation on this favourite dish. Follow it up with a smooth whisky and you’ll start to feel like a local.

For a taste of Scottish culture, a kilt-wearing busker often plays the bagpipes on Waverley Bridge, while traditional folk music can be heard in some Old Town pubs. Complete your stay with a rugby match at Murrayfield or a round at one of the city’s 14 golf clubs, and you’ll have the true Edinburgh experience.

Whether you are looking for hotels near Edinburgh Airport or accommodations in the city center, Booking.com has a great range to choose from.

    Edinburgh is a fascinating city and we would have liked to have been able to stay a bit longer than just 2 nights. We were there during August, so it was very busy, I'd love to visit in a less busy time to really appreciate it. We went on a fantastic hop on hop off bus tour which was very informative and gave a great overview of the city and its fascinating history. We didn't go into the castle, but did walk up to the outside, it was very impressive. We enjoyed a quiet walk along the Leith Water Walk and through Dean Village and also enjoyed just strolling along the Royal Mile listening to the different street performers at the Fringe Festival. The Grassmarket area was interesting, and we loved saying hi to Greyfriars little Bobby, such a sad but sweet story.

    So much to do in Edinburgh.

    So much to do in Edinburgh. Any duration is going to be too short. The Castle is worth visiting. Lot's to do in the Old Town and loads of eating places. Parking can be a challenge and pricy. There is also a Low Emissions Zone (LEZ) to take into consideration.

    My 2nd visit to Edinburgh.

    My 2nd visit to Edinburgh. A must see city of great architecture and history. Edinburgh Castle is a favorite and it is best to pre-book tickets. The Royal Mile is all commercialized now and no one knows anything about what they are selling. Tourist trap. Get out and about and see the country.

    Lovely small hotel just outside the city centre, with on-site parking. The owner was lovely and very accommodating (we ended up with a very late check-in due to an impromptu climbing of Ben Nevis). Also very helpful as a travel guide with what to do and where to eat. Beautiful building and furnishings. Very quaint and spacious room with modern bathroom and excellent shower. On bus route, so easy access in and out of Edinburgh city centre without the hassles of driving and parking.

    Served a purpose as a comfortable base whilst I visited Edinburgh solely for a concert. I wouldn't stay here for a city break, as it's too far removed from Edinburgh city centre, but a comfortable hotel all the same. One major positive I will point out was the quality of service from the staff. After returning from a late finishing concert in the rain, the staff had taken the initiative to provide pizza and tea, as no where else locally was open. A really nice touch!

    The room was spacious and clean, the bed was comfortable and so were the pillows. The hotel is well located for travel in and out of Edinburgh city centre with bus stops right outside. The facilities were good, staff were friendly and welcoming. We used the pool but didn't spend any time in the gym - both of which were included in the cost. The buffet breakfast was better than expected and reasonably priced.

    Clean, well organised hotel with great staff on the edge of Edinburgh. Nowhere in the city is cheap but it is still a good spot if you can get decent price for the rooms. The tram into the city centre is only a couple of minutes walk away. Few places to eat nearby. Nice pool, decent breakfast and all you would expect from a good hotel chain.
