The location was well placed for us, and it was easy to jump on the main tram. I cannot emphasize this enough. We should have stayed more nights. For the same price as some central accomodations you get to sleep on a boat. Cleanliness was top notch, and everything on the ship was well put together and design wise spoke to each other. Staff was extremely friendly. The breakfast area is beautiful. The bathroom looks amazing. You will not see such tiling in real buildings.

The room was great overall! It had a good size and was very clean. The bathroom was the best part however (spacious with big shower). The room had a private garden, but it was cold and rainy during our stay, so unfortunately we couldn't enjoy it. There was an electric kettle, coffee/tea provided, hairdryer. The hotel has a great location and is around 40 min on foot/ 20 min with the bus from the old town. Many small shops and cafes in the areas as well. The cleaning lady was very kind.

What's not to like. I mean, this sure was the best place I stayed during my whole trip in Scotland. The rooms and facilities are just like in the pictures. The rooms are beautifully decorated, and the attention to detail is on point. The breakfast freshly prepared every morning by Susan and Kevyn is amazing and delicious. The location is really good because you are close to the city centre and lots of local restaurants and cafes. It is a 20-minute walk to the Royal Mile, or you can take the buses that come and go very frequently. The neighbourhood is quiet, so it's perfect to rest after a day of sightseeing. The hosts, Susan and Kevyn, are simply the best. I couldn't have chosen a better place to stay to finish my vacation in Scotland. When I come back, I will most definitely stay here again and if you have the chance... do it because you will not regret 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've always loved Edinburgh, it's got something for everyone and has a great vibe. The addition of the trams since I was last there adds to the travel options. Leith is and always has been a personal favourite, was a good 25 years since I was there and it's changed so much, some of the character has been lost where traditional buildings have been demolished to make way for new flats etc, but still a great area to visit.

    Fantastic city, we visited Edinburgh Castle, one of the best attractions I've ever been to. We did a walking tour run by sandemans, which was excellent. Also went to the royal yacht brittania, which was excellent. Ate a variety of meals ( Miller and Carter, oink, prezzo) and went to coffee shops plenty of times. Walked around old town and new town. Got the bus every day, very good service. Got the tram to the dockyard, good too. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

    It is just amazing city. Very much like a from fairy-tale. We loved it (2 adults, 1 child 8 years). We were there at the festival-time mid to end July (not knowing about this event but it was an amazing surprise and we took advantage of it and visited lots of the events). Since it was also during Tattoo time, the city center has been very crowded, but was not a problem for us. Just expect prices for accommodation to be higher than usual. For us it was worth it. Super friendly people everywhere. Want to come back soon :-) We took the sightseeing bus at the first day - recommendable. And if you have children with you, go to the Camera Obscura, our son had sooo much fun.

    Very walkable city with ancient architecture. Loved the Royal Mile and the Edinburgh Castle. Easy to take trams to and from the airport and around the city. Took a tour to Hadrian's Wall over the English border. Could have spent another day or two exploring museums and more of the city.

    Edinburgh has lots of good bookshops and also yarn and fabric shops. Most of the museums are free and a useful resource if you need the toilet. The architecture is beautiful and there are stunning views from the castle and hills. Some of the art galleries are free. Excellent bus and tram links in the City.We are keen walkers and enjoyed getting round on foot, there is plenty to see. We found people open and friendly. We particularly recommend Art and Vintage Cafe Lyne Street and RoRo Tea in Canongate.
