Perfect stay! The location is excellent, very close to interesting tourist attractions and a bus stop, which made it super convenient to get around. The room was outstanding — clean, complete, and extremely comfortable. The hotel staff were all very polite, welcoming, and always ready to help. Another great highlight is that the hotel has partnerships with local restaurants, offering nice discounts for guests. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely come back!

Staying on the Ocean Mist was a unique, boutique experience and we loved it! It felt like we were stepping back in time, much like an ocean liner/ship from the past. Matt greeted us warmly upon arrival and helped us get checked in quickly. The staff in the bar were excellent as well, making us feel welcome immediately. It was a great experience and we hope to return someday to enjoy a longer stay.

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.

    We did a walking tour along the Royal Mile and Castle which was very informative (Viator). The Gin tasting at Edinborough Gin distillery was also quite nice. Be sure to follow the directions on the reservation as they recently moved and Google maps has the wrong location. Shopping along the Royal MIle and side streets was amazing. We did a day trip (11 hrs) up to the Highlands which are definitely worth seeing. If you have the time, just go up there and stay a while. There's lot's more to see in Edinburgh but we only had 2 days total. Would recommend 2-3 days in Edinburgh alone.

    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.

    Beautiful property. Clean & comfortable & spacious. Beds & pillows better than any hotel I've ever stayed in. Host replied within minutes of messaging. Very helpful & informative. Not far from city centre. Bus stop outside No.34 & No.35 takes you into city centre (10mins) We also downloaded City Cabs app for taxi to airport £32 Bar/restaurant 2min walk & local shop which sells everything. A great base for a 2 day stay visiting Edinburgh City.
