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.

    So much to do and see.

    So much to do and see. Small city but full of nooks and crannies and olde world charm. I was born in Edinburgh so always enjoy going back. Transportation is excellent. Trains to Glasgow, the highlands and London. Local buses to North Berwick and St. Andrews. and Coach buses to Glasgow and the highlands. Free museums, and galleries, and churches. Lots of quaint pubs. The high street (Princes Street) is looking a little tired and neglected. With the view of the castle it should be prime real estate. Too many loud, annnoying tourist cheap shops. What happened to Jenners and Marks and Spencers???

    Amazing history,art,architecture and shopping!

    Amazing history,art,architecture and shopping! Magnificent walks up to the Mound or just walking the city. Better shopping than Oxford Street in London! Hop on a tram to see the Royal Yacht Britannia and Leith and of course have coffee and cake. Public transport is great, cheap and lots of it.

    Edinburgh is a lovely city if you like beautiful architecture, history, and art. The castle provides an interesting background to the history of the city and marvellous views, as does a climb up Calton Hill. Holyrood Palace is another gem worth a visit. There is a very good art collection at the National Gallery (which is free of charge), including the main Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artists, Italian Renaissance masterpieces and Scottish art. If you stay at the centre, you can walk to the most important sites on foot. The food is good, but on the expensive side, as is the accommodation. The centre is easy to reach by tram; the transport system provides good connections. Dean Village is a must - a fairy-tale-like place in the heart of the city.

    We did 3 nights but 2 nights would be perfect to see everything - Edinburgh is small and very accessible to everything by foot. Would definitely recommend to visit - so beautiful and wonderful history!

    Edinburgh is a mix of medieval and modern, and so much fun.

    Edinburgh is a mix of medieval and modern, and so much fun. It's a walkable, bustling city with lots to do and see--from historical venues and tours to shopping to eating and drinking. It was mostly sunny and cool during our September visit but don't visit the UK (or Ireland) without a waterproof raincoat with a hood because showers arise, suddenly and often. We found the Scots and everyone in the area to be very kind and sociable. We took a touring coach to visit Doune, Blackness, and Midhope castles and villages outside Edinburgh in Stirling and Culross; I recommend you do that to see the beautiful countryside.

    So much to do and most of it in walking distance.

    So much to do and most of it in walking distance. Bus and tram services were great. Lovely restaurants We ate in the Bistro Coco , Fishers in the city and the Amber restaurant at the whisky experience. The food in all three of these was fantastic.

    This tiny,nice apartments are an excellent compromise between the big hotel fares located in the city centre and his position pretty far from Old town (30 min circa by foot). The neighborhood is calm and safe and our room (apartment 4) despite the little space available,was perfectly clean and organizated. If I came back to Edinburgh surely i will choose Beaverhall again.

    Breakfast was lovely as was the food in the Pentland restaurant at night. The staff were so friendly, welcoming and helpful, the hotel is in beautiful surroundings and Edinburgh City Centre was just a 35 minute bus journey from the top of the road.

    The location is perfect underneath the Edinburgh castle and very close to the city centre. The apartment is spacious and well equipped, same for the bathroom. Good beds as well! Hotel is offering 50% discount on parking which is a nice gesture.

    The West End of Edinburgh is a great location for this Hotel. The room was spacious and very comfortable. It is much quieter than many other City Centre Hotels and close to some very nice bars, cafes and restaurants.

    Very close to the main train station which is about 5 minutes walk. Very central location for Edinburgh city centre. Decor is very nice and different from a modern hotel. Nice bedding and pillows.
