In Edinburgh’s New Town, this Georgian building is just a 5 minute walk from bustling Princes Street and Edinburgh Train Station.

The front desk staff was extremely helpful and reacted immediately when I reported that I forgot my backpack on the tram when I arrived at the hotel from the airport. The guy was super friendly and managed to get back my backpack in just half an hour by informing the local tram service! Excellent location - just across the tram station to the airport, close to the city center and tourist attractions. I requested a quiet room and I got one! The room was clean, breakfast was absolutely sufficient (fresh, enough variety, very good service, I missed only fresh vegetables), excellent wifi.

Courtyard by Marriott Edinburgh offers accommodations in Edinburgh, in a prime location at the foothills of Calton Hill and just a five-minute walk from Princes Street.

the location is right on the center and many local grocery was beside the hotel. The staff was friendly and the room was clean👍. One thing I need to mention that I noticed that the room wasn’t have the choice to decide whether you want them to clean your room or not, because I am the type of person who don’t prefer to clean my room when I’m not there, So I think if there was the choice to choose either to clean or not will be better. Overall the hotel and the price was excellent and I definitely will recommend any one to stay in Marriott if they visit Edinburgh

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.

    I would recommend the hop on hop off bus tour, it gives you a perfect overview of the sights, and where you might want to spend longer, public transport is fabulous too, it’s quite hilly in places but worth it for the wonderful views, the Christmas market was lovely and the streets and shops were decorated fabulously, there’s plenty of cafes and pubs to enjoy on your travels☺️

    Edinburgh is beautiful, even on a grey day.

    Edinburgh is beautiful, even on a grey day. There are so many places to go, and the public transport is excellent. Get a bus pass (1 day or longer depending on stay) so you can go anywhere, then take your pick. In summer, Leith and Portobello can be a treat; the river walk by the Waters of Leith is delightful; Surgeons Hall museum is gruesome and interesting; go up Calton Hill for the views, down Grassmarket for people-watching, George Street for fancy eating and shops, Rose Street for atmosphere... My favourite eatery was Pomo on Morrison Street (near Haymarket station), but Auld Hundred and the Boozy Cow on Rose Street both provided good pub grub. And there are some excellent gelati around: Mary's Milk Bar and Ciao Roma come to mind. And if you are of small build, can cope with heights and narrow spaces, climb up the Scott Monument!

    Edinburgh is steeped in fascinating history, culture and the arts. Getting around Edinburgh isn't difficult but it's easy to get lost and often Google Maps can lead you astray. It seems to have a tough time understanding the many levels to the city and navigation for the unfamiliar is tricky, or at least we found it to be. If you're looking for history, do a bit of research before booking any tour. Some are just reenactments or fictional demonstrations based on history just for fun and interaction, while others might be more geared to information sharing and research. If you want the latter, as I did, being on a tour with people dressed up like ghouls trying to scare me wasn't appealing at all. I prefer the History of Medicine museum to the Edinburgh dungeon experience for example. Some might like both, but they are very different kinds of experiences.

    I love Edinburgh in every regard, but I don't think the people of Edinburgh need more tourism. They have plenty and the people should be able to enjoy their own city as well. I haven't found anything (not counting certain issues that everybody suffers due to Brexit) in Edinburgh that I don't love. Great culture, history, art, festivals, music, Christmas market, concerts, pubs, restaurants, not too forget fantastic university, and the amazing people of Scotland.
