The bed, pillows etc were great. The personnel were very helpful, sweet and accommodating. The room was very nice and the whole boat gave a sort of Agatha Christie-vibe (in a positive way^^). The bar served amazing drinks! The location was good too, only a few minutes from the tram station.

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.

Edinburgh is, without a doubt, one of my favourite cities in...

Edinburgh is, without a doubt, one of my favourite cities in the world — a place that feels like stepping into a storybook. Every corner has a soul, every street whispers history. From the cobblestones of the Old Town to the elegance of the Georgian New Town, the city is a seamless blend of past and present. There’s something almost magical about the way the mist rolls over the castle in the early morning, or how the light turns golden at sunset along Princes Street. The atmosphere is both mysterious and comforting — it’s a city that feels alive, yet calm; ancient, yet full of creative energy. Walking through the narrow closes, you can almost feel the centuries of stories that have unfolded there. Cafés tucked away in quiet courtyards, traditional pubs with live music, and the ever-present scent of rain mixed with roasted coffee make every stroll feel cinematic. Arthur’s Seat offers one of the most breathtaking views you could ever imagine — standing there, with the wind on your face and the whole city spread out below, it’s impossible not to fall in love. The people are warm and genuine, the food scene surprisingly vibrant, and the city itself seems designed to inspire. Whether you’re exploring ancient castles, browsing vintage shops, or simply sitting by the Water of Leith watching the world go by, Edinburgh has a way of capturing your heart quietly, deeply, and forever. It’s not just a city you visit — it’s a place you feel.

A Fantastic City, steeped in History.

A Fantastic City, steeped in History. From Gothic type Buildings to the Castle, Edinburgh is a very Classy City that we Enjoyed Immensely. Full of character and the people are Extremely Warm and Helpful. Id Highly recommend a Castle Visit, but booking early is necessary to avoid disappointment. We also took in the Edinburgh Dungeons tour. A Med-evil role play Show takes you through the Dark Ages of the City. Eating in Edinburgh has something for everyone. The vast array of Restaurants, Cafes and Fast food Outlets caters for all Culinary needs. An Overall amazing Experience I'd highly recommend to anyone

I know Edinburgh well , but on this trip I visited two places new to me . I toured the castle and used the audio guide . I recommend the castle as a good place to visit . The views are terrific . I also did a tour of the Johnnie Walker visitor centre on Princes street . This may be a bit pricey for some , my tour was £45.00 ( £4.50 off for over 60's , my category ), but I thought that it was good enough value . It lasted an hour and I tasted 6 different whisky brands . The building is very impressive , the staff are attentive and knowledgeable , and there is an upmarket bar on the top floor .

Both the "old" and "new" cities are wonderful walking experiences. Great architecture. Lots of great dining choices. Took the hop-on, hop-off bus around town to get a sense of things. Then walked to see the things we wanted to explore. Self-guided walking tour was very helpful. So much to see and absorb. Great history. Wonderful museum.
