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.

    On my visit in May 2024, by car, traffic congestion seemed to have increased since my previous visits. Extra journey time may need to factored in for reaching your destination in or around the city. Once there, walking instead of driving made things easier in some respects, and it remains a beautiful place to be.

    Bad place to eat healthily.

    Bad place to eat healthily. Visibly obese teenagers show that food in education has yet to be introduced. There is no serious bread to be had, only sponge bread that I thought had disappeared in the last century. What is boasted as sour dough bread is a travesty, with sugar added. Sugar is for cakes. Organic vegetarian restaurants are absent. There are only two small organic food stores in this metropole. Public transport gets you almost everywhere, for a modest cap sum. Air quality is poor on account that all buses stil run on diesel. Electric buses for this small city should be mandatory.

    We stayed here for one night before an early flight from Edinburgh airport. The hotel was clean and comfortable. We ate in the hotel restaurant. The food was good, if slightly expensive, and the waiter who served us was very friendly and helpful. The hotel was only a few minutes drive from the airport so handy for us. It was also close to the tram line so would be easy to get to the airport or city centre from here. We didn’t have time to use the pool due to arriving late and leaving early but the leisure facilities looked good.

    Pretty much perfect location as it’s in the middle of new town and old town , and right infront of the rail station. It also has a shortcut path to take you directly from the hotel to the Royal mile in about 20 seconds lol. It was perfect, you really can’t get a better location. Also they had so many amenities like an espresso machine and the fluffiest sheets ever. I was extremely happy and comfortable here. If I return to Edinburgh I will only stay here.

    The location in New Town by St. Andrews Square was amazing!!! We were right by a bunch of great restaurants and a Sainaburys Local. All the hop -on -hop off buses start there so that was very convenient. It was also a fairly quick walk to old town / Edinburgh Castle. The vibe of the room and the windows were great! We pretty much had everything we needed.
