A Guide To Hotels In Edinburgh
Whether you're in the city for work or enjoying a city break, Edinburgh is a fantastic city to visit. There is a big variety of hotels in Edinburgh to choose from with hotels to suit all budgets, from the low cost hotel chains like Premier Inn to the boutique luxury hotels like The Glasshouse hotel.
Getting To, From And Around Edinburgh
Many hotels offer parking facilities, and if they don't there are a number of overnight car parks that can be used, so if driving to Edinburgh is relatively straight forward.
Of course, train is often the best way to get into the city with Edinburgh Waverley and Edinburgh Haymarket train stations offering connections to much of the UK. Many city centre hotels are also close to the train stations so if you're arriving early, it's easy to drop your bags with reception before heading out to explore the city.
Edinburgh really is a city to explore by foot, however, the bus and tram services are easy to use and affordable if buying a travel card. If you're arriving into Edinburgh by air, the tram is the best and easier way to get from Edinburgh airport into the city.
Things To Do In Edinburgh

If you're in Edinburgh to watch a game at Murrayfield, while there is the Murrayfield Hotel close by, you may find it better to stay closer into the city centre and travel in to the stadium.

Private Apartments
If you fancy a little extra space or want to feel a little more like a local, swapping the hotel for the apartment can be a great option. Having your own kitchen allows you the freedom to save money by cooking in, even if it's just making your own breakfast instead of eating out. These apartments can also be a great fall-back option if you're looking at last minute hotels in Edinburgh but struggling to find availability.
