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.

    There’s lots to do for a short city trip. Loads of art galleries, which are of particular interest for us. We spent hours walking and visiting the various historical sites. The botanical garden was very enjoyable. There are also more than enough good bars, pubs and restaurants. Transport is also easy, we visited Leith and Portobello, both were worth the short trips out of the centre.

    This amazing city has a great deal to offer tourists, from the fantastic Edinburgh Castle to the Edinburgh Dungeons and every imposing facade and museum in between. It helps that the people themselves are warm and welcoming. I enjoyed myself immensely and wish I'd spent more time there.

    Edinburgh is just AMAZING!

    Edinburgh is just AMAZING! One of the most beautiful cities I have ever been. It is just great! I cannot even name everything ... old town, new town, castle, museums, parks, beach, pubs, ... I loved everything, except Leith. That is ugly and boring. Save your time and do something else. I can recommend Cramond beach and the River Almond Walkway, especially if you need a break from the city and like nature. Lauristan castle is also nearby. You can explore Edinburgh walking or by bus. The bus network is good and very easy to use.

    Very nice place. Cultural and rich in history. Weather was good although there was rain when we reached. But next day we enjoyed strolling at Royal mile.

    This is a very safe and beautiful location across from a major park in Edinburgh. One of the big advantages you get with his hotel is the knowledge of the host. He has outstanding recommendations and will help you in anyway possible. I was particularly pleased that he switched my room after checking in. This is one of the better value hotels I have been joyed and my trip to Ireland and Scotland. The rooms are a bit small but Everything else is truly delightful.

The walk to old town, the royal mile and Edinburgh Castle was just a short and easy to do. But most of all the staff was very responsive, great to work with and very helpful during our stay. I can not say enough about the staff and location proximity to everything you want to do, plus a great view of Edinburgh Castle from the front door!

    The room was quiet despite the hotel being really busy. The location suited us as central Edinburgh is not a good place to have a car and bus travel to/from the city centre was efficient and reasonably priced (even running late into the evening). For those who prefer taxis we noted a steady stream arriving/departing with other guests.
