Best hotels & accommodations in Edinburgh
We were trying to decide between two hotels for our visit to Edinburgh for the last weekend of the Fringe Festival and Edinburgh Tattoo - their busiest time of the year.

We were trying to decide between two hotels for our visit to Edinburgh for the last weekend of the Fringe Festival and Edinburgh Tattoo - their busiest time of the year. When looking at the photos of the two hotels, the Scotsman appealed to us more than the other from the decor. But the decider was that one of my daughters who, as a young college student 6 years earlier had visited Edinburgh with a friend, recognized the hotel and restaurant as the one which had welcomed them so warmly one evening, despite their obviously not being big spenders and being tired and hungry! We couldn't have made a better choice and they still welcome you very warmly. The location is terrific. We could walk everywhere but the shipyard. It's a beautiful old hotel with updated features like a luxurious bed and bathroom. We were travelling with 2 of our daughters who are in their 20s. Our room was on two levels, with the bedroom and bathroom upstairs. We had a beautiful view of Edinburgh and the castle. The downstairs windows looked out towards Calton Hill. The bathroom was HUGE with an excellent rainhead shower. (We didn't use the lovely bathtub) Our daughters' room included a sauna off their bathroom! From the moment we pulled up in the car the staff went above and beyond. Ivor drove with me to the parking spot, which is close to the hotel but required going around the block in heavy traffic. To make sure I didn't get lost or frustrated, he drove with me and showed me how to get in to the hotel from the lower level. The staff are all exceptional. Ivor went above and beyond the whole time, but Nick and the other bellman were wonderful too. The staff in the restaurant very accommodating and pleasant. We got to walk through the lobby of other hotel we had been considering and all of us agreed that we had picked the better hotel. We love the tartan fabrics (from Anta) on the wing chairs in the reception area and wood paneling. There are little reminders that this once house
Firstly, check-in was a breeze. We arrived Edinburgh early and hotel got our room ready for early check-in. Though the apartment was on the 4th floor with no lifts, the service staff helped to carry our luggages up. The bedroom is comfortable. The living room and well-stocked kitchen were also of good size, we even had a chance to bake an apple pie! The only drawbacks ...
Firstly, check-in was a breeze. We arrived Edinburgh early and hotel got our room ready for early check-in. Though the apartment was on the 4th floor with no lifts, the service staff helped to carry our luggages up. The bedroom is comfortable. The living room and well-stocked kitchen were also of good size, we even had a chance to bake an apple pie! The only drawbacks are that the toilet is rather smalll and the wifi alittle slow. Other than that, location is superb!! Right in between the Edinburgh castle and St Giles Cathedral. Close to all the night and day tour pick ups as well. Pubs/restaurants nearby also serve pretty good food, really love the Albanach down the road. Overall, a wonderful stay and would definitely choose Stay Edunburgh City Apartments if I visit Edinburgh again.
We stayed in two rooms, both were beautifully decorated, clean, couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. Location wise it's very central, right across from Edinburgh Castle. Highly recommended.
This is the second time we stayed in the George Hotel in Edinburgh and it was every bit as good as we remembered. The rooms are to a high standard, the staff were helpful, very polite and nothing was too much trouble for them. Look forward to our next visit
This hotel was the only one's hotel in Edinburgh which has affordable price while summer festival. Most of the hotel was fully booked, and the others have non-affordable price and not value for money. And this hotel was the right choice!

This hotel was the only one's hotel in Edinburgh which has affordable price while summer festival. Most of the hotel was fully booked, and the others have non-affordable price and not value for money. And this hotel was the right choice! For a small hotel, it has quite good facilities because it has kitchen in the room! The staffs were friendly. Because I booked this hotel on the same day with my check in day, it got some problem with their check-in system, but they were so helpful! And I didn't need to wait for long. Thank you!
One of the best hotel i ever visited. Centrally located and very close to any main attraction in Edinburgh. We got upgraded to 3 bedroom and everything about it is perfect.

All bedroom is fully furnished and heater in every room. The kitchen is also awesome which have everything we need to cook and also free bread and milk for our breakfast. There are also a dining room which you can use to eat with your big family. Besides the perfect facilities, the service from the staff is also good. Very heartwarming which represent Scottish hospitality. Overall this is a perfect stay for us and will be back to stay here again in the future.
Great! Simply Great for an affordable price! Hotel management knows their differences compared to other city hotels, and they are trying their best to cover up those differences. The room was wonderful with all the amenities provided with regard to its price. Layout of the room was good too, not too narrow, and the wide bathroom. Also the view from the windows was...
Great! Simply Great for an affordable price! Hotel management knows their differences compared to other city hotels, and they are trying their best to cover up those differences. The room was wonderful with all the amenities provided with regard to its price. Layout of the room was good too, not too narrow, and the wide bathroom. Also the view from the windows was open and freshing. Making you feel that you are in Edinburgh. Good Wi-Fi as well. Breakfast is same in every and each hotel, traditional scottish. Lifts were reliable and quick. It might seem a little further up the city centre compared to others but actually just 7 mins walk and we were on The mile end. Car parking is limited, but the street is available until 8:30 in the mornings. Only few stains in the bathtub is the negative thing we could say. The toileteries were wonderful btw. I wouldn't think for a minute if I 'd go to Edinburgh again.
This place is seriously stunning. Only been open a week when we arrived, so everything fresh, new and exciting. Once the promised restaurant and cafe are open there will be more of a buzz, but the apartments are amazing and remarkably good value by Edinburgh hotel price standard. Love it!
In previous years, I've used one of the many (and increasing in number) budget hotels in central Edinburgh, and despite the increased competition prices are going up, noticeably. As of 2018, if you go Edinburgh budget hotel in January, you can get a windowless box room with a shower cubicle or, for much the same price, you can get a room at Palmerston Suites: a spaciou...
In previous years, I've used one of the many (and increasing in number) budget hotels in central Edinburgh, and despite the increased competition prices are going up, noticeably. As of 2018, if you go Edinburgh budget hotel in January, you can get a windowless box room with a shower cubicle or, for much the same price, you can get a room at Palmerston Suites: a spacious, comfortable room, views of the west end of the city, separate kitchen with simple cooking facilities and a good sized fridge, clean bathroom and shower (with towels and heated rail), a very large TV if you're into that sort of thing, and a helpful front desk service. The cooking facilities were a real plus: rather than having to plan where and when I would need to eat, the modern electric hobs meant I could enjoy a hearty, fortifying meal - provided it was something you could cook in a pot or a pan - before heading out into those (let's be honest here) wet, windy and bloomin' cold Edinburgh evenings.
Lovely old hotel that has been tastefully modernised. It is in an excellent position near Edinburgh. We used the bus service from outside the hotel grounds into Edinburgh, so no worries re car parking or getting stuck in traffic! It takes just 35 minutes.

Lovely old hotel that has been tastefully modernised. It is in an excellent position near Edinburgh. We used the bus service from outside the hotel grounds into Edinburgh, so no worries re car parking or getting stuck in traffic! It takes just 35 minutes. The food and service is good and the junior turret suite we chose, was perfect, very roomy with a really comfortable king size bed and big bathroom. I would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone.
This was the room with the best value booked throughout our entire holiday.

This was the room with the best value booked throughout our entire holiday. The location of the hotel is so convenient, 2 stops (by bus if you are not keen on walking with luggage) from Waverley Station, has several bus stops in front of the hotel where you can hop on a bus to everywhere including the airport, and if you prefer walking, Edinburgh Castle and Princes Street are just a few hundred metres away, an easy walk. The hotel is surrounded by supermarkets (Sainsbury's across closes at 11pm). Bed was comfy, room and bathroom was clean, an electric kettle is also provided. Did not opt for breakfast. Size was large enough, a good size for the price we paid. Definitely recommended!
We found this Hotel to be very convenient for our purposes. The Staff were very friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Any extra items i.e. towels coffee etc. were obtained from the desk without any problem. The rooms were very clean and serviced every day.

We found this Hotel to be very convenient for our purposes. The Staff were very friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Any extra items i.e. towels coffee etc. were obtained from the desk without any problem. The rooms were very clean and serviced every day. As it was very hot and no A/C in room, it became a bit uncomfortable to sit in the room for any length of time. I suppose it was unusually hot for Edinburgh, so couldn't be helped. The only problem with room was the total lack of drawer space, but apart from that, perfectly adequate. It is a very conveniently placed hotel within a few minutes walk of most amenities and only 5 minutes walk to Princes Street. Overall we had a pleasant stay at this hotel and would recommend it to anyone.
this was one of the best stay we ever had for Europe trips. The apartment is nicely size. With a nice sofa area, a full kitchen with all the utensils, bowls and plates.

There was oven and a washing machine. Toilet is good size too. The Tv screen had helpful information and the staffs were very friendly and helpful. Prior to this we stayed in a 4 stars hotel in London and we think this is way better. Location is within walkable distance to sights and shops. only feedback we have is the bed is abit hard. But that’s just our bed preference. Overall we Would definitely recommend this place to any one who will be visiting edinburgh.
The location of the hotel is a bit of a walk from the main train station. For travellers with big luggages, cab will be the best option. Room is very comfortable, cosy and clean.

The location of the hotel is a bit of a walk from the main train station. For travellers with big luggages, cab will be the best option. Room is very comfortable, cosy and clean. Hotel does not have a lift, travellers with big and or multiple bags should request for ground level rooms. No laundry services and food services (other than breakfast) in the hotel, the nearest being a walk away. Hotel has a left-luggage option and are helpful in booking cabs to airport. Good pit-stop for travelling around Edinburgh and the highlands.
Stayed here for 4 nights in the single room on 13-17 April 2019.

Everywhere you look is a feast to the eyes, the decor was beautifully done, comfy rooms, great breakfast selection and service is absolutely top notch. Rooms amenities were fantastic - ground coffee and fresh milk available daily in the comfort of your room. Location is very good, Princess St Gardens is under 5 minutes walk, and in close proximity of shopping areas in Edinburgh. There is Tesco Express & Boots nearby - so you get your basic items easily should you need to. I had meetings and conference in EICC, and it’s only 12 minutes walk from the hotel. Thank you for making me feel at home while being on a business trip thousands of miles away. Hoping to return to this lovely hotel with my husband for our anniversary trip someday.
We enjoyed another short stay at the Haymarket Tune Hotel in Edinburgh. However, I would question their Check In Policy. If you arrive before 3.00pm , as we did, you are offered a ''quick check in'' for £15. This means there are obviously rooms available. To leave your luggage until 3pm it costs £2.50 for each item.

Booked this apartment for a birthday celebration in Edinburgh. With 3 travellers it was difficult to work out the best way to sort out our accommodation - a triple hotel room? three singles? so we looked at apartments and found this for the same price as a hotel. This was a spacious 2 bedroomed apartment with a living/dining/kitchen area, 2 bedrooms - one with an ensuite and a separate bathroom. Each of the bedrooms had a flatscreen TV, as did the living room. All of the rooms were decorated in a lovely modern style. The beds were extremely comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. And the bathroom was well stocked with Molton Brown smellies. The staff were excellent - rushing to help at every opportunity. Will definitely book again if we return to Edinburgh. Worth every penny.

What a delightfully elegant and charming hotel. Very friendly and helpful hotel staff greeted me when I checked in. The owner's son was also very professional and helpful during my visit. I enjoyed my stay at the Ballantrae Hotel, given it was my first time in Edinburgh. My room had been recently redecorated, so the promotional picture is accurate in its rendition of a typical room (although mine was on the top floor and was smaller.) The bathroom was also newly redecorated, adding to the comfort of my visit. I was able to walk to the Edinburgh Castle because of the hotel's close proximity. I recommend it for the price and quality. The breakfast was more than adequate and plentiful. I would stay at the Ballantrae again.
I travelled from Newcastle to Edinburgh so was exhausted. The room I stayed in was Marshall and it was perfectly cleaned and the bathroom was very fancy! And oh my god the beds are like marshmallows it has to be the best nights sleep I’ve had in a long time shame it couldn’t of been longer!

I travelled from Newcastle to Edinburgh so was exhausted. The room I stayed in was Marshall and it was perfectly cleaned and the bathroom was very fancy! And oh my god the beds are like marshmallows it has to be the best nights sleep I’ve had in a long time shame it couldn’t of been longer! A lovely view into the garden and had a big range of different tea coffee from normal tea to green flavoured tea. The breakfast was very very tasty! A lovely selection of continental and cooked breakfast! Lovely cooked in a lovely clean kitchen! It’s a restaurant on a night but never got to try it for a meal. There’s limited parking spaces but the man on reception told me to double park and leave my keys at reception so they could move it if needed ‘this i wasn’t really fussed about’ It’s perfect distance from the town centre only walking distance from the the royal mile and round the corner from any local shops All in all it’s the best hotel I’ve stayed in and will defiantly be a regular customer all the staff were amazing I can’t wait to be back!!
The Carlton hotel in Edinburgh was a perfect base for our business meeting just around the corner. The hotel was impressive to look at but not at all stuffy. The staff were efficient and friendly and made my stay comfortable and stress free. I had numerous printing requests and they were done to a high standard.
The hotel has a interesting history and warm feel a home away from home. A nice little in-house bar and multiple lounge areas. The rooms were a good size although our room was below street level with limited natural light, I would recommend asking for a room on the upper levels. The staff were great and secured expensive items that were left behind for a week to enable...
The hotel has a interesting history and warm feel a home away from home. A nice little in-house bar and multiple lounge areas. The rooms were a good size although our room was below street level with limited natural light, I would recommend asking for a room on the upper levels. The staff were great and secured expensive items that were left behind for a week to enable us to pickup on our departure out of Edinburgh. The location is fantastic easy walking to the centre and other main attractions. The best value for money in our trip to Scotland.
From start to finish we had a really pleasant stay. The hotel itself is stunning with the décor etc, our room was huge, it had a small but compact bathroom which was also very nice. The breakfast was lovely and served very quickly. Check in and out was brilliant and they stored our cases for us so we could go and explore Edinburgh without having to worry about them....

The lady on reception, I think she was Polish, was extremely nice and helpful and there is a free coffee machine there also for all guests. The actual hotel is steeped in history is in an out of town location about 10 minutes walk from the far end of Princes Street so you can easily get your step counter up walking back and forwards on Princes Street. Overall very pleasant stay, lovely hotel and lovely staff.
I really appreciate my stay at the Hilton Grosvenor Hotel in Edinburgh. It provided a warm place for me to stay on a cold and rainy day. I came early and was at the hotel by nine in the morning to leave my luggage when to my delight, I was told that I can get into my room already.
Very beautiful hotel however you are paying a premium for this - right opposite Edinburgh Castle - they are many beautiful historic hotels in Edinburgh.
This is a great place to stay as the apartment was very spacious with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living and kitchen area with all the facilities you could need.

This is a great place to stay as the apartment was very spacious with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living and kitchen area with all the facilities you could need. Easy to drive to, avoiding the centre of Edinburgh traffic and free parking outside. The bus to Edinburgh was easy, with the stop just a short walk away - £4 for an all day ticket, but be sure you have the right money as no change given. Asda was nearby and the Ocean Terminal centre with cinema. Could have done with the heating on before we arrived though as the apartment was cold and took a while to warm up when we put the heaters on.
This hotel is a must when you're staying in Edinburgh. The central location was awesome, within walking distance to the Edinburgh Castle, city gardens, the Royal Mile and Old Town, train and bus stations not to mention the hop on hop off buses.

The hotel room was quirky and spacious. If you happen to stay in the Cairo room, mind your head around the hanging ceiling light. The meals within the restaurant were delicious and well priced. Room service was also good plus prompt and the French Toast was enormous! The staff were second to none, I cannot speak highly enough of them. My husband and I were greatful for our upgrade and the service we received. All of the staff were very pleasant and polite. A big thanks to Jody and Yasmin especially.

My stay in Apex Waterloo Place Hotel is perfect! The hotel is located at the city center and visitors can easily travel to different tourist points and restaurant under walkable distance. The hotel is just right next to the Edinburgh Christmas Carnival and the tourist meeting point for local tour "rabbies" so that I can fully utilise the time I stayed in Edinburgh. My package didn't include breakfast and the price for the food there is a bit high, but I think that's normal for a 4 star hotel. Generally I had a wonderful stay in Apex Waterloo.
this are very spacious apartment. stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment which must have been around 100 square meters. location is good as you can walk everywhere.

this are very spacious apartment. stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment which must have been around 100 square meters. location is good as you can walk everywhere. But actually edinburgh is quite small so you can walk from anywhere anyway. If you want really central, you can stay on the royal mile or grassmarket as there are more shops and restaurant in that area . but princes suite was perfect for us given the huge space of the apartment. there is rabbie cafe next door, where you can buy 2-3 day tours next door so definitely recommend do the 2-3 days tours. try the seafood places in this city. it's not expensive and delicious. The Hop on HOp off bus is also very good . For tourist, we suggest to stay 2 night in edinburgh , then do 2-3 days tours to see the lakes and mountains.
Have stayed her before, and still one of our best hotels, room on the small side. But was sufficient for our two night stay, Tea & Coffee, Fridge, Hairdryer, and very clean. Bus right outside hotel front door, into Edinburgh city centre, first class breakfast each morning, something for everyone, from cereal to a full cooked. Would recommend if staying in Edinburgh.
The apartments at The Chambers Hotel in Edinburgh, were in a great location, just a minutes walk from the Royal Mile, and 5 minutes walk to Edinburgh Castle. The apartments were stylish, spacious, very well appointed and very modern with old world charm.

Great and very safe facilities for a solo female traveller. The staff was fantastic and would help you with any issues that might arise. It's very camping/fringe mentality in August but if that's what you want, it's the perfect place to stay and meet very creative and interesting people. Straight bus connection to city centre. More than value for money.
Travelled to Edinburgh due to Fringe, the place is very clean, staff are all helpful and friendly. The mattress is good but it might be better to remind the visitors to respect others’ sleeping time.

A friend a I spent 3 nights there and we found it absolutely suitable for our holiday: a bed in a good dormitory room (the other roomates were respectful and we found enough space for our stuff) and some bathrooms with clean toilets and showers (hot water never failed). We didn't use the kitchen, but appreciated the breakfast provided by the staff (3 puonds for unlimited tea, coffee, hot milk, cereals, bread, butter and jams). It's not far from the city center (both Old Town and Princes street) and close to the Haymarket station which links to the airport.
The ocation just beside twaverley station, 2 min from royal mile,5 min from edinburgh castel, and the fare also good for a solo traveler like me. Room is organized nicely, bathroom is very clran, the staff is very helpfull, and you it has lift, so need to drag your heavy lugage through the painful stairs. I will stay here longer if I visit Edinburgh.
The communal areas are really nice decorated and the rooms were pretty basics and was relatively unattractive, but somehow clean, gotta share the bathroom and the showers with few other rooms but it's not so bad. it's easy to walk to the spots, the restaurants, the shops. also, the royal mile itself is an aged street.

All along the royal mile is full of really nice cafés, restaurants and pubs. The staff was really friendly and helpful. And it's easy to get to the airport by bus which leaves from round the corner.

This place is maybe my favorite hostel after I stayed 4 different hostel in Edinburgh. Price is very cheap and no extra fee for padlock, towels, and breakfast with eggs( you cook as you like on your own) I don’t know how they can do that!! The bed is ok but can’t complain after you get all the above! The bed could be very tiny but I’m 5ft 1 so no problem to me:)
Great location if you want to go to Edinburgh Castle, Edinburgh Dungeon and the University of Edinburgh. However, 10 minutes walking from Edinburgh Waverley Station is impossible because of the great gradient between the station and the hostel. It is harder than you think when you dragging big luggage.

Great location if you want to go to Edinburgh Castle, Edinburgh Dungeon and the University of Edinburgh. However, 10 minutes walking from Edinburgh Waverley Station is impossible because of the great gradient between the station and the hostel. It is harder than you think when you dragging big luggage. Besides, the facilities are great, clean and interesting. Free coffee and hot chocolate and cheap breakfast. But remember to prepare toiletries yourself.
This has to be the best "pod hotel" I stayed so far in all my travels. It is surprisingly spacious. Very clean and tidy. Only problem we had is the toilet sink which is a bit too small, and we ended up wetting the floor when we wash up. Other than that, no complains. You can also get good and cheap breakfast at the cafe in the morning.
I spent 3 night here and absolutely would stay again if I visit Edinburgh. Hotel location is really perfect. Its walking distance to Edinburgh castle, calton hill, royal mile. The room is clean and this hostel seems like well organize. Thanks!
It is in a nice location, downtown Edinburgh. This place is actually better than most of the reviews I read about it. I felt safe since the rooms are allocate by "flat" (no more than 3 rooms) which only allows people from those rooms to have access to that area, not the whole hostel. Besides there are at least 3 doors, well locked, before you get to your room. Again, I...

Hopefully that someday I will be coming back to edinburgh and i will come back and stay at this hostel :)
Demi, the owner of the hotel, is so considerate and kind. The family room is so spacious and tidy. Linens are clean. Bathroom is modern. So, if you are looking for a family hotel room to stay in Edinburgh, Adelphi hotel is the answer.
Extremely cheap stay with sufficient facilities
This guest house is situated on a very busy and fast road. Not ideal if you have young children. We witnessed 2 car crashes In less than 24 hours outside the front door. Shower was awful, the flow wasn't very fast and it was burning hot. My 4 year old son couldn't have a shower. It wasn't very clean either. Had to clean it myself before using it.

This guest house is situated on a very busy and fast road. Not ideal if you have young children. We witnessed 2 car crashes In less than 24 hours outside the front door. Shower was awful, the flow wasn't very fast and it was burning hot. My 4 year old son couldn't have a shower. It wasn't very clean either. Had to clean it myself before using it. Getting into the place was a nightmare. You have to phone a number to get a code for the door. We were phoning for about 10 minutes before getting a reply, and no one was really about for help. This place would be okay for an over night stay.
No bath, breakfast served with okd old cutlery was a bit off putting and very basic continental breakfast BUT still goid value and added bonus of their own parking spaces even though it did cost £20 a day but thats a bargain in Edinburgh - but staff very friendly, helpful and relaxed woyld defo consider it again if going to that end if Edinburgh.
Careful with parking! You are not allowed to park on the side of the main road after 7:30 am. We arrived late at night when there was nobody at the reception and parked along the road as we had seen others do, next day the car was gone and we had to pick it up at the depot, cost us 180 pounds.

There is one free spot available on the property but this is not a lot so let’s say free parking is an overstatement. The host was very friendly and helpful during the whol situation and the room and breakfast were fine!
Booked quite late for 1 night to seea gig in Leith. Fantastic price, good location for Leith or Edinburgh. Spotlessly clean & comfy. Breakfast is available. Would stay again.
I really enjoyed this little place. beautiful old town house with nice details, beautiful woodwork in the room and tastefully decorated. Lots of good restraurants close by and a quick bus ride or nice walk to the center fo Edinburgh.
i was in edinburgh for the ireland scotland rugby match and i chose this hotel cos of its location. it is a five minute walk from the pitch and the airport bus drops and picks you up close by. it has non ensuite rooms but you have the use of a bath room next door just for you
Wow!! Just 2km away from the air. Worth ro stay more and more and more....

I will definitely be booking this hotel again when we visit Portobello next time,

The room is very cosy, warm and homely. It feels very much like home, more than a hotel. You can park in front of the guesthouse for free if you have a rented car. Just 5mins walk to the Main Street where there is a Starbucks, Sainsbury local there and there is a really nice cafe opposite the road called Word of Mouth cafe that serve really good breakfast and coffee. It is 10mins away from the bus stop where you can catch the bus to the city center which is not far away. I would definitely stay here again if I'm coming back to Edinburgh.

I went in Edinburgh with my friend for 2 days trip snd booked a private double room here. I was surprised to see that all the facilities were available, including plates or cutlery or anything you would ever need in everyday life !! It was certainly value for money . The staffs were friendly, room was clean & secured and there were 3 shared bathrooms in the apartment I lived ! It was wonderful.. the only things I didn't like is that there was no handwash in the toilet & the windows of the room could never be closed, even in the winter! Overall a very good experience & I would definitely recommend EH to anyone out there !
We were very happy with our stay. Room was very clean. Great service, very friendly and helpful staff. Bus stop directly infront of the guest house. Walking distance into city centre around 25-35min.

positive: we had a great stay here.the room is spacious, neat & comfortable enough for 4 adults. the staff are friendly & helpful. negative: the lighting is a little inadequate. the sink faucets are "crazy": red coded faucet gives out scalding hot water; blue coded faucet gives out freezing cold water (the case for many other uk hotels). the hotel is located relatively far from restaurants & major attractions, although taxifares are reasonable to & from the city center. one major problem we had was the online booking confirmation: it had no address on it. upon our arrival to edinburgh bus terminal (around 9pm when almost all establishments are closing), nobody among the really helpful bus terminal employees could locate this hotel, until one of the employee's i-pod locator found it. we were relieved. what if nobody found it?
4-star hotels in Edinburgh

We were trying to decide between two hotels for our visit to Edinburgh for the last weekend of the Fringe Festival and Edinburgh Tattoo - their busiest time of the year. When looking at the photos of the two hotels, the Scotsman appealed to us more than the other from the decor. But the decider was that one of my daughters who, as a young college student 6 years earlier had visited Edinburgh with a friend, recognized the hotel and restaurant as the one which had welcomed them so warmly one evening, despite their obviously not being big spenders and being tired and hungry! We couldn't have made a better choice and they still welcome you very warmly. The location is terrific. We could walk everywhere but the shipyard. It's a beautiful old hotel with updated features like a luxurious bed and bathroom. We were travelling with 2 of our daughters who are in their 20s. Our room was on two levels, with the bedroom and bathroom upstairs. We had a beautiful view of Edinburgh and the castle. The downstairs windows looked out towards Calton Hill. The bathroom was HUGE with an excellent rainhead shower. (We didn't use the lovely bathtub) Our daughters' room included a sauna off their bathroom! From the moment we pulled up in the car the staff went above and beyond. Ivor drove with me to the parking spot, which is close to the hotel but required going around the block in heavy traffic. To make sure I didn't get lost or frustrated, he drove with me and showed me how to get in to the hotel from the lower level. The staff are all exceptional. Ivor went above and beyond the whole time, but Nick and the other bellman were wonderful too. The staff in the restaurant very accommodating and pleasant. We got to walk through the lobby of other hotel we had been considering and all of us agreed that we had picked the better hotel. We love the tartan fabrics (from Anta) on the wing chairs in the reception area and wood paneling. There are little reminders that this once house
Firstly, check-in was a breeze. We arrived Edinburgh early and hotel got our room ready for early check-in.

The living room and well-stocked kitchen were also of good size, we even had a chance to bake an apple pie! The only drawbacks are that the toilet is rather smalll and the wifi alittle slow. Other than that, location is superb!! Right in between the Edinburgh castle and St Giles Cathedral. Close to all the night and day tour pick ups as well. Pubs/restaurants nearby also serve pretty good food, really love the Albanach down the road. Overall, a wonderful stay and would definitely choose Stay Edunburgh City Apartments if I visit Edinburgh again.
Great! Simply Great for an affordable price! Hotel management knows their differences compared to other city hotels, and they are trying their best to cover up those differences.

The room was wonderful with all the amenities provided with regard to its price. Layout of the room was good too, not too narrow, and the wide bathroom. Also the view from the windows was open and freshing. Making you feel that you are in Edinburgh. Good Wi-Fi as well. Breakfast is same in every and each hotel, traditional scottish. Lifts were reliable and quick. It might seem a little further up the city centre compared to others but actually just 7 mins walk and we were on The mile end. Car parking is limited, but the street is available until 8:30 in the mornings. Only few stains in the bathtub is the negative thing we could say. The toileteries were wonderful btw. I wouldn't think for a minute if I 'd go to Edinburgh again.

In previous years, I've used one of the many (and increasing in number) budget hotels in central Edinburgh, and despite the increased competition prices are going up, noticeably. As of 2018, if you go Edinburgh budget hotel in January, you can get a windowless box room with a shower cubicle or, for much the same price, you can get a room at Palmerston Suites: a spacious, comfortable room, views of the west end of the city, separate kitchen with simple cooking facilities and a good sized fridge, clean bathroom and shower (with towels and heated rail), a very large TV if you're into that sort of thing, and a helpful front desk service. The cooking facilities were a real plus: rather than having to plan where and when I would need to eat, the modern electric hobs meant I could enjoy a hearty, fortifying meal - provided it was something you could cook in a pot or a pan - before heading out into those (let's be honest here) wet, windy and bloomin' cold Edinburgh evenings.
Lovely old hotel that has been tastefully modernised. It is in an excellent position near Edinburgh. We used the bus service from outside the hotel grounds into Edinburgh, so no worries re car parking or getting stuck in traffic! It takes just 35 minutes.

The food and service is good and the junior turret suite we chose, was perfect, very roomy with a really comfortable king size bed and big bathroom. I would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone.
I travelled from Newcastle to Edinburgh so was exhausted. The room I stayed in was Marshall and it was perfectly cleaned and the bathroom was very fancy! And oh my god the beds are like marshmallows it has to be the best nights sleep I’ve had in a long time shame it couldn’t of been longer!

I travelled from Newcastle to Edinburgh so was exhausted. The room I stayed in was Marshall and it was perfectly cleaned and the bathroom was very fancy! And oh my god the beds are like marshmallows it has to be the best nights sleep I’ve had in a long time shame it couldn’t of been longer! A lovely view into the garden and had a big range of different tea coffee from normal tea to green flavoured tea. The breakfast was very very tasty! A lovely selection of continental and cooked breakfast! Lovely cooked in a lovely clean kitchen! It’s a restaurant on a night but never got to try it for a meal. There’s limited parking spaces but the man on reception told me to double park and leave my keys at reception so they could move it if needed ‘this i wasn’t really fussed about’ It’s perfect distance from the town centre only walking distance from the the royal mile and round the corner from any local shops All in all it’s the best hotel I’ve stayed in and will defiantly be a regular customer all the staff were amazing I can’t wait to be back!!
From start to finish we had a really pleasant stay. The hotel itself is stunning with the décor etc, our room was huge, it had a small but compact bathroom which was also very nice. The breakfast was lovely and served very quickly. Check in and out was brilliant and they stored our cases for us so we could go and explore Edinburgh without having to worry about them....

The lady on reception, I think she was Polish, was extremely nice and helpful and there is a free coffee machine there also for all guests. The actual hotel is steeped in history is in an out of town location about 10 minutes walk from the far end of Princes Street so you can easily get your step counter up walking back and forwards on Princes Street. Overall very pleasant stay, lovely hotel and lovely staff.
I really appreciate my stay at the Hilton Grosvenor Hotel in Edinburgh. It provided a warm place for me to stay on a cold and rainy day. I came early and was at the hotel by nine in the morning to leave my luggage when to my delight, I was told that I can get into my room already.
This is a great place to stay as the apartment was very spacious with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living and kitchen area with all the facilities you could need. Easy to drive to, avoiding the centre of Edinburgh traffic and free parking outside.

This is a great place to stay as the apartment was very spacious with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living and kitchen area with all the facilities you could need. Easy to drive to, avoiding the centre of Edinburgh traffic and free parking outside. The bus to Edinburgh was easy, with the stop just a short walk away - £4 for an all day ticket, but be sure you have the right money as no change given. Asda was nearby and the Ocean Terminal centre with cinema. Could have done with the heating on before we arrived though as the apartment was cold and took a while to warm up when we put the heaters on.
This hotel is a must when you're staying in Edinburgh. The central location was awesome, within walking distance to the Edinburgh Castle, city gardens, the Royal Mile and Old Town, train and bus stations not to mention the hop on hop off buses.

The hotel room was quirky and spacious. If you happen to stay in the Cairo room, mind your head around the hanging ceiling light. The meals within the restaurant were delicious and well priced. Room service was also good plus prompt and the French Toast was enormous! The staff were second to none, I cannot speak highly enough of them. My husband and I were greatful for our upgrade and the service we received. All of the staff were very pleasant and polite. A big thanks to Jody and Yasmin especially.

My stay in Apex Waterloo Place Hotel is perfect! The hotel is located at the city center and visitors can easily travel to different tourist points and restaurant under walkable distance. The hotel is just right next to the Edinburgh Christmas Carnival and the tourist meeting point for local tour "rabbies" so that I can fully utilise the time I stayed in Edinburgh. My package didn't include breakfast and the price for the food there is a bit high, but I think that's normal for a 4 star hotel. Generally I had a wonderful stay in Apex Waterloo.

this are very spacious apartment. stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment which must have been around 100 square meters. location is good as you can walk everywhere. But actually edinburgh is quite small so you can walk from anywhere anyway. If you want really central, you can stay on the royal mile or grassmarket as there are more shops and restaurant in that area . but princes suite was perfect for us given the huge space of the apartment. there is rabbie cafe next door, where you can buy 2-3 day tours next door so definitely recommend do the 2-3 days tours. try the seafood places in this city. it's not expensive and delicious. The Hop on HOp off bus is also very good . For tourist, we suggest to stay 2 night in edinburgh , then do 2-3 days tours to see the lakes and mountains.
I never write reviews however I really feel at home during my stay at the DoubleTree By Hilton Hotel Edinburgh City Centre! Their goal is to make their guest feel spoiled rotten, since the people at the checking to the room service people. they provide an excellent service and makes you want to stay and never gonna leave PS: their cookies are second to none !

The room is big enough but the bathroom is too small, the bed is very comfy. The reception staffs is friendly and helpfull, cause he gave me all the informations about the hotel. The location of Radisson Blu is very good, near to some cafes, restaurants, bars, gift shops and not far from Edinburgh Castle (it can be reached by walk) and some tourist’s spots. We are very happy to stay at this hotel and will recommend to my friends and will stay at this hotel again if we go back to Edinburgh another time.

We pretty regularly have a night away in Edinburgh, and decided on Saturday morning to check availability and prices in the city centre. We’d stayed at The Rutland Hotel before but never the Apartments. The price for a one bed apartment was the cheapest we’d seen for a quality establishment, so we were quite anxious. The apartment turned out to be stunning! Excellent location, really high quality contemporary finishings and super clean. Rounded off with very helpful and welcoming staff, and a couple of free beer vouchers, this turned out to be a great day/night away, and a fantastic decision. Thoroughly recommended!!
Castle view guest house is located in the central of Edinburgh which is only 30 mins by bus from the airport. Additionally, every interesting places are very close to the guest house. It takes only 15 mins on foot to go such as Edinburgh castle or Calton hill. The host is very friendly and nice guy who will really welcome to you.
Really, really enjoyed my stay at Tigerlily Hotel. Perfect location in Edinburgh. Hotel staff couldn't have been nicer.
My family (young kids) and I stayed at this hotel for two nights. The Adgio Aparthotels are absolutely wonderful.

My family (young kids) and I stayed at this hotel for two nights. The Adgio Aparthotels are absolutely wonderful. The apartment that we stayed in was just right for a small family and includes a fully equipped kitchen which is very convinient. The entire apartment is very clean and would recommend to anyone. It's close distance to the famous Edinburgh Castles about 15mins walk and also you find plenty of roadside restaurants within 2 to 5 mins of walking. If you are trevelling by car there is a public car park about 2 mins away from the hotel, however since the hotel is on a main road loading and unloading can be difficult during peak traffic times. What we did was, there was some empty space behind the hotel and also by the side of the hotel which you can use to load and unload. The hotel has a coin operated self laundry service with both washer and dryer and detergent is included which is very convenient. Overall, good location, very clean, friendly staff and super value for money.
We booked into Apex for Valentine's weekend. It is our favourite hotel in Edinburgh. The breakfast is wonderful with variety of choices. Staff are always helpful. The cafes across from the hotel are worth trying - love Petite Paris excellent quality food reasonably priced. Although it has limited parking there is a NCP car park round the corner.

this was our first trip to edinburgh and everyone we talked to told us to stay near the royal mile for the sights. the location of this hotel was exactly what we wanted. near to the royal mile but also near the restaurant area. we stayed 3 nights at the hotel. when we first arrived, the girl who checked us in was great. she made us feel very welcome and pointed out the different possible sites for tourists. the hotel is in good condition with new carpets and quite clean. the room was spacious and had everything i would want. the bed was quite comfortable and large. the bathroom had both a shower and bath (which i like). water ran hot and strong. the internet was quite good as well. overall we had a great experience at this hotel. it was one of the cheaper options that we found, but this is not a budget hotel, this is great value for money and i will stay there again when i return.
First of all, the staff was incredible. They go above and beyond to accommodate guests. I was permitted an early check-in, late check-out, and they watched my bags during the gap between my check-out and my flight that evening. Secondly, the location is perfect.

It's just outside the hustle and bustle of Old Town, but near enough so you are in the thick of the action within only a few minutes' walk. Finally, the hotel itself was perfect. It was clean, spacious, and the showers have good water pressure. I will definitely stay here the next time my travels bring me to Edinburgh.
An excellent stay - we have been to the Edinburgh festival for over 20 years and this is one of the best hotels we have stayed in. Although a bit out of town it was very accessible for buses. Lots of good restaurants around although food at the Malmaison is also excellent. We would recommend the hotel to others staying in Edinburgh.
Very clean hotel that was easy to walk to the city center from. The staff was helpful in making sure we could catch a very early train on our last morning. Walking distance to Edinburgh Castle but it wouldn't be a recommended walk.
We had one of the garden level rooms and it was quiet, fairly spacious and had a lovely bathroom.

We had one of the garden level rooms and it was quiet, fairly spacious and had a lovely bathroom. The wifi was the best we had in our two weeks traveling around Scotland and we appreciated the bit of sherry left in the room for the guests. We were tired on arrival and decided to have dinner at the hotel our first night which was not only surprisingly good, but at extremely reasonable prices. The included breakfast was also good, though on Sunday, service was a bit slow due to the full dining room. The hotel is a bit more than 1.5 miles from the main tourist areas of Edinburgh and we enjoyed the quiet walk back and forth, though buses are available. The staff were consistently friendly and we received some helpful advice for our touring, including discount coupons for the sightseeing bus tours. Would definitely recommend this place to others.
Third stay at the Edinburgh Airport Hilton. Hotel gets top marks for the staff, who all took a personal interest in us given we are now regular ustomers. Rates are all over the place – at £140+ its expensive for what it is, some good deals down as low as £65 per night if you know how to play the system.

Third stay at the Edinburgh Airport Hilton. Hotel gets top marks for the staff, who all took a personal interest in us given we are now regular ustomers. Rates are all over the place – at £140+ its expensive for what it is, some good deals down as low as £65 per night if you know how to play the system. Good points are that the hotel is in a great location for the airport, so close in fact that the £2 shuttle bus isn’t worth it unless its raining or you have a lot of baggage. Nothing seems to be too much trouble for the staff, who will go out of their way to help, and the spa and leisure centre is excellent. Given the hotel’s distant location from Edinburgh, it is usually quiet enough with not too many noisy locals and families using the pool facilities. Bad points are that the restaurant and bar is pricey, and the food sometimes doesn’t deliver the promise that the prices and the Hilton brand leads you to believe. Extras aren’t cheap – in-room internet is extortionate unless you are lucky enough to be on the higher tiers of their HHonors loyalty club, where it is free. Standard room décor is dated (the building dates from the mid 1990s), although the “deluxe” rooms are much more contemporary.
We love staying at the Mode Edinburgh. Fantastic location in New Town - Quiet yet very near all the sights, restaurants and shopping. The hotel facilities are tip-top and the room is immaculate.

After 3 days in the Highlands, when we came back to Mode Edinburgh again, it was like coming home. Of all the hotels we stayed in during our holiday in UK, Mode Edinburgh is the best!
We have arrived earlier as we taking bus from London, kind staff recommend we can enjoy breakfast at the hotel. They have different choice of breakfast and tasty.

Moreover, there is a automatic sky window in the bedroom, and room space is large and clean, we thought we really like a queen. We will stay here if we travel to Edinburgh again.
Stayed in four hotels during my Edinburgh trip. The Place was perfect as my last hotel to stay in. The location is just right in front of the tram station (to get to the airport).

Stayed in four hotels during my Edinburgh trip. The Place was perfect as my last hotel to stay in. The location is just right in front of the tram station (to get to the airport). It's not exactly near the many attractions of the city but close enough for me to walk. Overall, I love the cleanliness and chic design of the room, and how friendly the front office personnel were. However, there is no elevator to get to the higher floors. My room was near the rooftop, so I had to lug my bags over multiple staircases. The staff did offer help, which I declined but appreciated. Apart from that, the stay was lovely. The room was small but not cramped. Everything inside the room works (wifi, shower, coffee making facilities, etc.). I also loved the view of Edinburgh coastal areas from the window. Would stay here again if I get the chance.
In Edinburgh for a small private function at the Arthur Conan Doyle centre we booked an overnight stay but wish it had been longer! The small classic suite was well appointed with a most comfortable bed and a large bathroom with spa bath and separate shower.

In Edinburgh for a small private function at the Arthur Conan Doyle centre we booked an overnight stay but wish it had been longer! The small classic suite was well appointed with a most comfortable bed and a large bathroom with spa bath and separate shower. Wonderfully plump pillows , large fluffy bath towels and robes, one of the biggest plus points for me was FRESH milk in the fridge! This was our second time at the Edinburgh Residence and hopefully will not be the last. Staff were extremely helpful and charming. A great place to stay......

All bedroom is fully furnished and heater in every room. The kitchen is also awesome which have everything we need to cook and also free bread and milk for our breakfast. There are also a dining room which you can use to eat with your big family. Besides the perfect facilities, the service from the staff is also good. Very heartwarming which represent Scottish hospitality. Overall this is a perfect stay for us and will be back to stay here again in the future.
This place is seriously stunning. Only been open a week when we arrived, so everything fresh, new and exciting. Once the promised restaurant and cafe are open there will be more of a buzz, but the apartments are amazing and remarkably good value by Edinburgh hotel price standard. Love it!
Stayed here for 4 nights in the single room on 13-17 April 2019. Was greeted warmly upon arrival, check in was smooth sailing & was pleasantly shown to my room within 20 minutes upon arrival (very much appreciated after 20 hours of travel from Malaysia). Everywhere you look is a feast to the eyes, the decor was beautifully done, comfy rooms, great breakfast selection ...

Everywhere you look is a feast to the eyes, the decor was beautifully done, comfy rooms, great breakfast selection and service is absolutely top notch. Rooms amenities were fantastic - ground coffee and fresh milk available daily in the comfort of your room. Location is very good, Princess St Gardens is under 5 minutes walk, and in close proximity of shopping areas in Edinburgh. There is Tesco Express & Boots nearby - so you get your basic items easily should you need to. I had meetings and conference in EICC, and it’s only 12 minutes walk from the hotel. Thank you for making me feel at home while being on a business trip thousands of miles away. Hoping to return to this lovely hotel with my husband for our anniversary trip someday.
Booked this apartment for a birthday celebration in Edinburgh.

Booked this apartment for a birthday celebration in Edinburgh. With 3 travellers it was difficult to work out the best way to sort out our accommodation - a triple hotel room? three singles? so we looked at apartments and found this for the same price as a hotel. This was a spacious 2 bedroomed apartment with a living/dining/kitchen area, 2 bedrooms - one with an ensuite and a separate bathroom. Each of the bedrooms had a flatscreen TV, as did the living room. All of the rooms were decorated in a lovely modern style. The beds were extremely comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. And the bathroom was well stocked with Molton Brown smellies. The staff were excellent - rushing to help at every opportunity. Will definitely book again if we return to Edinburgh. Worth every penny.
Very beautiful hotel however you are paying a premium for this - right opposite Edinburgh Castle - they are many beautiful historic hotels in Edinburgh.
The apartments at The Chambers Hotel in Edinburgh, were in a great location, just a minutes walk from the Royal Mile, and 5 minutes walk to Edinburgh Castle. The apartments were stylish, spacious, very well appointed and very modern with old world charm.
My wife and I spent 4 days at the Bonham Hotel in Edinburgh. The hotel is ideally located for enjoying the beautiful city of Edinburgh. We walked into town every day and had a lot of fun exploring the entire city. The hotel is about a 5 minute walk from New Town and about a 5 minute walk from the Edinburgh Castle.

My wife and I spent 4 days at the Bonham Hotel in Edinburgh. The hotel is ideally located for enjoying the beautiful city of Edinburgh. We walked into town every day and had a lot of fun exploring the entire city. The hotel is about a 5 minute walk from New Town and about a 5 minute walk from the Edinburgh Castle. We enjoyed the wide array of restaurants for dinner and cafes for breakfast that were all in easy walking distance of the hotel. Our room was clean and the internet was great. If there was anything that was less than excellent from the perspective of the hotel it was the water pressure in our shower was not great, but at the same time it was plenty serviceable. Otherwise the hotel is beautiful and all of the staff was very helpful. I would definitely stay at the Bonham Hotel again in the future.
We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel, shame it has no pool like our usual hotel in Edinburgh. Great reception staff. The only downside to our stay was the cocktail bar where the staff took ages to serve you and when they did they got it wrong (tried to give us someone elses bill) Restaurant was excellent food and service and would reccommend.
Highly recomended for a budget hostel in edinburgh. I should come and stay from the first day in edinburgh. But because the picture not so appealing, so i choose other hostel one fine day back from my highland tour, i booked this hostel to try out, because the best rate for the day.

My wife and I stayed for 1 night in a Club room with castle view for our anniversary, can honestly say it was one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in, everything clean and fresh and the food and facilities fantastic as were the staff who were very helpful and friendly. Spa facilities are second to none.
The place was fantastic, especially for family or group stay. The bus stop just in front of the restaurant, supermarket across the street, and it was very easy to reach the city center. I will stay here again when I visit Edinburgh next time.
I treated my 17 year old daughter to an over night stay. WE absolutely loved our stay. Everything was perfect and will be coming back again. I booked restaurant vouchers on Itison for Xmas presents and will be recommending to all my friends and family.
This was definitely a 5 star experience, highly recommended
It is a very nice, clean and cozy hotel, which the manager/owner, Paul names their home. I agree to Paul as it really is. The services here are excellent. Paul provides good recommendations on where in Edinburg to go. Paul is a nice guy. His warm hospitality to every guest is unforgetable.

Paul provides good recommendations on where in Edinburg to go. Paul is a nice guy. His warm hospitality to every guest is unforgetable. The breakfast that Paul's wife, Susan prepares every morning is superd. It gives you a good start of the day and the energy you need for your travel. You can feel the warmth and heart of the person who prepares it. I miss the home made breads, cakes, poached eggs and many other. Thank Susan.This is a place I and my wife will definitely recommend to our friends if they visit Edinburg. Thie is a wholehearted recommendation from a friend of the years of dragon.
Very personal service, beautifully decorated rooms, gorgeous drawing rooms and restaurant. Don’t even look at other hotels in Edinburgh any more!
We travel to Edinburgh regularly to visit our daughter at the university.

We travel to Edinburgh regularly to visit our daughter at the university. We have stayed in many wonderful hotels (and have two regular ones same standard as the Balmoral)) but this was the first time at the Balmoral. We stayed two nights in three rooms for our daughter's 21st. Perfect location, facility and staff. The afternoon tea in the The Palm with attentive staff was brilliant and a perfect end to a 21 birthday celebration. Too much food so either don't have breakfast on the day or book your tea for very late afternoon. Only negative comment I have is one of the reception staff was a bit "cold" but this could be due to either language or cultural difference. We have two more years of visit to Edinburgh and we will certainly stay here a few times and treat our daughter to a break from her student flat. Thank you.
Easy to travel to Edinburgh Airport
We were really really impressed with our stay, the Nira Caledonia hotel is small and boutique.

The restaurant is top notch and worth putting on your list of places to eat, it wasn’t on any of the restaurant reviews we scanned but it should be. Great food and a very personal service, fantastic. We won’t bother looking at other places next time we go back to Edinburgh, we will just rebook at Nira Caledonia

We had our second breakfast in the room as it was so large & interesting-so many items to look at,we didn't want to leave the room From the moment we climbed the old circular staircase to or "Old Rectory" we knew we were in for a treat. Bathroom was super,heaps of quality amenities,& the daily cookies,sparkling water & champagne made this place special. 10/10.
John cooked up some really tasty breakfast each day. Everything was homemade and it taste wonderful.

Traveler impressions of Edinburgh
I thought Edinburgh city was too expencive and some of the shop owners was very rood but is a good city and always something to do.
make a list of all the attractions and sights you wish to visit. its a great city with plenty to do the quality of dining was fantastic and suited all types of budgets the only down side was the amount of homeless people who you came across every where in the city.
a very sad sign of the time im affraid. well worth a visit fantastic city.
A quiet and not too crowded city, that offers a fantastic experience staying in the Old Town of the Edinburgh area.
Nearby is the Calton hill which is a good spot to have a leisure stroll in the early morning to have a breadth of fresh air, and a good view of the city.
Edinburgh is the most beautiful city in United Kingdom. It history and attractions make it even more attractive.
If have chance, is a must go city.
you should stay in london and save money for a good meal or shopping instead of sitting ur butt for almost 5 hours to go to Scotland which is not much different with London.
this city is a great place there is always somewhere to go and see. the food is fantastic and suits all pockets.
so many beggers everywhere on the high street you must remember not every one is as desperate as they make out. i love this city and wil be returning for many more visits try the ghost tours or the student tours around the royal mile . fantastic must see city

Lots to do and see, too much for a couple of days. Variety of things to do, shopping, history, entertainment and shopping.
Great blend of old and new.
A Wonderful buzzing city rich in culture and history. Great Nightlife too most especially during the summer time
I found the souvenir shops in Edinburgh had the best selection that I did not find in Glasgow and could not find everything that I had picked out to buy at the end of our trip.
for your entire of life i suggest you have to visit this town at least once. you will never regrade and you will love it.
believe me..
Simply love the town and the buildings are all so beautifully designed. A very historic town worth visiting
it is ahistorical city. While there you must see the Castle, princess street for shopping, and Royal botanic garden
A lovely city, being the capital of scottland since ancient times, Edinborugh is indeed the center of scotts.
From the memorial in princes streets to the famous carstle, the hole city is telling its history in its very own way. A good place to start you jorney in Scottlan and to learn more about the country, its culture and its people.
I used to live here in the 1960s and remember it with great affection. Still so much to see when I visit
Fun city with lots of things to do. Loads for the kids to enjoy but great nightlife for the adults too!
Edinburgh is a FABULOUS city. It has historic buildings, it is the home of the Scottish Parliament, it has culture, it has great shopping, it has a variety of museums and galleries.
It has pubs. It has restaurants. What hasn't Edinburgh got? It hasn't got adequate parking and it has a VERY aggressive ( and rude) army of Traffic wardens. What parking it has, is OBSCENELY expensive. Take a tip from me....stay outside of the City of Edinburgh and travel in, on the excellent( and cheap) bus service! Tom Reynolds. Take a tip from me
We went to Edinburgh when they had the Art Festival which was during August. The city was really full of fun.
Most of the galleries, theatres, and nightclub were parts of the fest. Apart from having such a beautiful architecture, this city is so friendly and artistically interesting.
Edinburgh is nice city to explore arising from the long history of British empire. However, my stay in the city is totally upset by unhelpful, rude hotel officer.
It is my favorite City in the world. You can wander and the history is everywhere. The shopping from Harvey nicks to primark is fantastic.
The theatres, castle, holyrood, are only a few places with walking round.
Getting around Edinburgh and highland of Scotland may takes more than 5 days. I was regret to plan only 3 days in scotland
The cities was very beautiful with old building surrounding it. Should spend maybe 2 night above to explore the town.
Great historical city with beautiful architectures. A great place to experience one of the most beautiful and cultural city in Europe.
Several sightseeing attractions; offers a hop on/hop off tour bus at a reasonable cost; food is very good; several places to shop; overcast weather is only negative
Lots do and places to go, lots of culture and beautiful building and architecture. Can be very hectic and tiring, take comfortable shoes.
Amazing! probably the most amazing city I cam across. It is rather small however it has plenty to do and see and an amazing atmosphere.
Also, there is enough to see and do for a full week, without including nightlife, clubs, pubs and comedy.
neat. clean. well equipped. visit to castle. musueum. city bus tour and cruise etc. historical places with natural beauty.
Charming place but expensive. great for seeing historical sights. The real action is out in the countryside which is beautiful.
An historic city with everything for everyone. We ate very well in Michelin starred restaurants, drank very good ale in the local pubs and had an enchanting afternoon tea at a tea shop selling antiques.
The people are marvelous, friendly outgoing and helpful. I would recommend Edinburgh to anyone. It is not cheap (what city is?) but a lot cheaper than London and everywhere is easily accessible.
I had a good time in Edinburgh. It's not a big city. Two days should be enough. There are some tours you can take.

More about Edinburgh
Crowning the Old Town is Edinburgh Castle, an emblematic fortress with 1,000 years of history behind it. The entire historic quarter splays under it in a maze of cathedrals, stony architecture, and parliament buildings. Visitors can walk the Royal Mile from the castle to Holyrood Palace for the quintessential Edinburgh experience.
Across the valley from the Old Town is the New Town - a misleading title as the area has a few hundred years of history and its own UNESCO recognition. Characterized by late Georgian architecture, tidy streets, and leafy parks, the New Town has more commercial offerings.
Edinburgh receives a varied lot of tourists, and it excels at catering to mixed budgets and tastes. There are hotels near Edinburgh to suit everyone, spanning hostels and backpacker haunts to full-service luxury hotels.
Be sure to check out the interactive map of Edinburgh for information on hotel locations, attractions, and must-see destinations.
