Room was nicely upgraded, very clean, & the TV coming out of the end of the bed was a nice touch. Great little bar attached, we noticed that all the tables were reserved so must be good food. We were meeting friends elsewhere.

The Scott

Hotel in Newington, Edinburgh

Welcome to The Scott, where history intertwines with luxury in the heart of Edinburgh's Southside.

truly enjoyed my stay at The Scott. The property is beautifully designed in an elegant Scottish style that makes you feel like you’re staying in a small castle — a perfect blend of charm and understated luxury. The staff were exceptionally polite and attentive, always ready to help with any questions or requests. Although the room was not very large, it was thoughtfully furnished, cozy, and had everything we needed. I particularly appreciated the small touches — like the daily treats, cookies, and coffee provided in the room. These little details made the whole experience feel extra special and warm. I would also like to highlight the breakfast — the atmosphere was simply wonderful. The dining room was stunning, the service excellent, and the food both delicious and beautifully presented. There was a nice selection to choose from, and it truly felt like a luxurious start to the day — the perfect way to begin exploring Edinburgh.

The hotel's standout feature was undoubtedly its delicious home-cooked breakfast. With a choice of 8 or 9 options, there was something to suit every palate, and the food quality was exceptional. I particularly enjoyed the Scottish breakfast, which was a real treat!

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 wonderful place to visit.

    Edinburgh is a wonderful place to visit. The history and sites are incredible. We visited the palace, castle, and royal yacht. We also enjoyed eating at a farm to table restaurant and experienced a high tea. I wish we had visited for more than two days.

    Edinburgh is a beautiful city with a unique mix of history and charm. I really enjoyed walking through the old streets, exploring the castle, and taking in the stunning views from Calton Hill. The atmosphere feels both lively and cozy, with plenty of nice cafés and pubs to relax in. It’s definitely a place I’d love to visit again.

    Possibly 3 days to encompass most of the main places of interest. The Royal Yacht Britannia (with afternoon tea) should definitely be on your itinerary. So much history and so many places of interest to visit. Everyone is so laid back and helpful.

    Edinburgh is a wonderful city, it combines the Middle Ages and modern architecture. There are many interesting monuments, buildings, structures. And there is a whole history behind all of this. The transport interchange is also very convenient. There are many buses in different directions, but at the same time they do not interfere with enjoying the city, as, for example, in the center of Dublin. It is also very convenient - from the airport through the whole city and the center to the other end, directly to the sea and the royal yacht "Britannia" there is one tram. In one short visit (3 days) you cannot see everything in Edinburgh, you cannot enjoy it. Therefore, plan your time :)

    The city has an old town feeling, with many little shops (skip the souvenir ones). There are plenty of book stores, antique print shops, coffee and pastry cafes to keep you occupied. But the highlight was the Military Tattoo which takes your breath away.

    Easy city to get around with all the trams and buses.

    Easy city to get around with all the trams and buses. Beautiful city with lots of history. Would highly recommend attending the Tattoo, it was spectacular. The Princess Street Garden and Park is a great place to walk with lots of points of interest. Recommend the hop on hop off buses to get from one area of the city to another, It's saves a lot of walking. A 48 hour pass will get you to all the areas of the city including the Royal Yacht Britannia. The Waterson book store on Princess Street has a really nice cafe with comfortable seating on the second floor and a fantastic view of the castle. The Vennel Steps next to the Milkman coffee shop has another great view of the Castle. Overall a must see part of a Scottish adventure.

    The location was great, only a few mins drive into the city centre with buses every few mins, including one to and from the airport (only takes 10 mins). The staff were so helpful and friendly and the accommodation was stunning. Everything was so clean and comfortable. When we had a problem, they sorted it straight away and ensured we had the best stay possible. I’ve been to Edinburgh several times in the past and this was the best property I’ve stayed at, hands down! This includes a number of chain hotels.

    Everything - beautiful hotel and grounds, clean, spacious rooms, lovely helpful staff, amazing dinner at main restaurant :D Honestly loved it! Have agreed with my partner we're staying there every time we visit Edinburgh - outside city but still cheaper and better value for money for room here and parking or taxi into city centre than staying more centrally. Couldn't recommend it more! Love, love, love it <3
