My son Max and I had a magical stay at The Balmoral. The staff were just wonderful. Everyone went above and beyond to make our stay extra special for Max (age 9). Our trip to Edinburgh was a special treat because he's a huge Harry Potter fan. He absolutely loved Edinburgh and all it's Potter lore but the stay in the Balmoral was by far the highlight of his trip because of how kind everyone was to us (as well as it being a beautiful luxurious hotel of course).

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.

    An amazing historical city that is easily accessible by foot. Great food and ales. The Royal Mile is a great place to wander about but you really need to explore the rest of the city. We started with a hop on/hop off bus tour to get our bearings then walked from there. I’ll be back!!!

    Great City. The castle is a must see.

    Great City. The castle is a must see. Lots of different buildings, plenty of information, and fantastic views of the city. Went on two open-topped bus trips. One around the city - would highly recommend the red bus tour. Also did the blue bus one that went past the Royal Yacht Britannia. We got off and bought tickets for the tour (you get a discount by showing your tour bus ticket). So much to see! We needed longer but had to get back for a commitment. Luckily you can go on line and use the yacht ticket for a year. Hoping to come back and spend more time on the yacht and see other great attractions.

    Edinburgh is very picturesque and a such it is teaming with tourists. Hotel prices are exhorbitant; like it's Fringe Festival time, all the time. As such it's worth taking some time to find reasonably priced accomodation, preferably on a public transport route

    Definitely need more than a couple of days to see all of the top attractions on the Royal Mile and the National Museum of Scotland. Make sure if are visiting more than one castle in Scotland to get the Historic Environment Scotland Explorer Pass to save time and money with entry and with parking (at some locations).

    There’s many things to do so I’d really recommend following your own interests rather than following a tick box of must-see destinations. There are several bus tours which are a great way of seeing the castle, Arthur’s Seat and other highlights. We were most interested in art, so enjoyed getting another bus to Modern One and Two, and a train to the V&A at Dundee which was fantastic. We also enjoyed finding small independent places to eat which were very good.

    Edinburgh is a must see. My granddaughter saw everything! We could walk everywhere once we go to the city center. We toured the Castle, Palace, Hiked Arthur's Seat, ate at Sheep Head Inn in Duddingston, Museum & Art Museum were great & free. Food was great everywhere. Bus & train system is easy to use. You must go to the Scottish Design Exchange (all local artist).

    We came from Glasgow by bus stopping in front of the Hotel. Reaching Edinburgh city centre is easy (20 min) with many busses stopping in front of the hotel. Very easy to reach Edinburgh Airport by Bus (15 min) or Taxi for early morning flights Room very nice and comfortable. Pup/Resaurant very good and cheap, with menus includin alcoholic/non alcoholic beverages.
