Everything. After 2 weeks driving around in Scotland, I can say this was the best hotel we experienced. You can walk to the city centre or take a bus. The bed is super comfortable (best one we had). The room is well decorated and big enough. And the staff is very friendly and professional. Go the pub next door, you won't be disappointed :) In short: we loved it.

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 visited with the intention of attending the Tattoo.

    I visited with the intention of attending the Tattoo. I flew in on the morning and went to the tattoo in the early evening. I managed to fit in a walking tour at the Real Mary Kings on Sunday morning and followed this with attending four fringe shows and a lot of city walking. Monday was more leisurely with a train ride to Loch Lomond. There is a lot of Harry Potter type architecture in the old city. Just look up at the skyline Edinburgh was great to walk in with plenty to see and do without the Fringe. Not too expensive to eat and drink with lots of local coffee shops and cafes available serving good food. I found The Cafe on the mound serving home cooked food and barista coffee. Dinner was less than £10. Public transport in and around Edinburgh is brilliant and not too expensive. I didn't wait more than 10 minutes for a bus back to my accommodation. I would love to go back just to explore.

    My wife and I stayed in Old Town for the first 4 days of our trip because our objective was to take in as much of the Fringe as possible. It worked well being in the center of activity. The other 6 days were in New Town and the pace of city slowed down a bit. At our age, we preferred the New Town.

    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.

    We stayed in a very nice and spacious duplex room with a kitchen. We chose this location because of its proximity to the concert hall O2 Academy. It's an hour's walk from the city centre, but there are no problems with transport. But we discovered non-touristy Edinburgh, full of great and inexpensive pubs and restaurants. The hotel is pet friendly and has a private car park.
