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.

Most of my life decisions were made in this hotel. From choosing what Uni I went to and my husband proposing to me here so it holds a lot of good memories . I even decided to apply for a job whilst taking High tea here! I love the facilities, and the view from our room was breathtaking. The service is impeccable ! Worth every penny ! We will be back for many years to come.

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.

    Great city full of history, lots of hidden gems to discover as well as the popular landmarks. We did the city bus tour, the castle, we also caught the tram to the Royal Yacht Britannia before squeezing in a little whisky tasting at Johnie Walkers and enjoyed the roof top bar there

    What a magical city.

    What a magical city. Calton Hill, Edinburgh Castle, the Palace of Holyroodhouse and the Old City are must see for first timers. We loved the ghost tour in the evening, it was excellent. We stayed near the Portobello beach, enjoyed it tremendously, especially breakfasts in a local café with an ocean view. Can't wait to go back!

    It was very crowded.

    It was very crowded. I did not check that due to the number of visitors in this time of the year we need to buy the tickets to the castle at least one day prior our visit. All tickets were sold out when we arrived. Keep this in mind.

    Good city transport.

    Good city transport. Local buses (Lothian) and Trams are good to explore the city. Ticket prices are affordable. Museums, beaches and City Centre are a few examples of fantastic tourist places in Edinburgh. The live digital display trackers for local buses & trams are superb! A variety of cuisines are available. Booking. com and Google Maps supported me a lot in organising my travel schedule. I stayed at HFS The Mill House. Very good place for short holiday stays. I visited the following restaurants: Chennai Marina, Flavors of Andhra and McDonald in Gorgie Park Road. I enjoyed the Indian cuisine. The food quality and taste was good in all the above-mentioned restaurants. Ranga Indian restaurant (near Portobello beach) was superb!

    Edinburgh has so much to offer, especially during the Fringe month. Sightseeing buses. Hundreds of comedy, music, theatre, children’s and cabaret events taking place. Ghost tours and history tours to take. As well as the Castle and the Tattoo there are places just a short bus or tram journey away to visit, Leith, Newhaven, Portobello beach and many more. Everywhere we went the service was good and those serving very friendly and pleasant.

    Edinburgh is a vibrant fun city with surprises around every corner. Saturday's Farmer"s Market on Grass Market Street is not to be missed. Great place for shopping, pubs and cafe's and people watching. Any of the hop-on, hop-off busses is a great, cost effective way to see the major sites of the city. And if you can visit during the first 3 weeks of August, the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo is not to be missed! The Tattoo is a performance by international military bands and performers that takes place on the esplanade of the Edinburgh Castle. The venue is spectacular and the concert stunning!!!!! We had dinner the night of the Tattoo at the Cannonball Restaurant on Castle Hill Road. It has an interesting history and great location but we found the food quality to be average and overpriced. But from Edinburgh Castle to the Palace of Holyroodhouse along the Royal Mile to Arthur's Seat and the Royal Yacht Britannia, Edinburgh doesn't disappoint!
