I love Edinburgh I was a student there for 5 years so I'm biased. There's something magical about it for me. The fact it's walkable and you're surrounded by Arthur's Seat, Salisbury Craggs and the castle it's like a film set. Also feel safe there.

Edinburgh has got a lot to offer and is very walkable. I would recommend visiting Dean Village, Old Town, Calton Hill, st Giles, Cathedral, Bus Tour, The Royal Botanic Gardens. Museums are mostly for free, unless there's a temporary exhibition on.

I have wanted to visit Edinburgh and all of Scotland for over 50 years. My jaw was always dropped from the beauty of this city and this countryside. The buildings in Edinburgh are gorgeous. The people are lovely. The history of this country is tops.

Great shopping in St James Centre. Also recommend Bonnie and Wild marketplace to eat with a great choice of food and drinks. Edinburgh playhouse nearby. Not far from the Royal mile and the Castle. We went to the Christmas Markets which was great.

Edinburgh is a great city with many cosy pubs, restaurants and plenty of shopping. Set in a landscape of beautiful buildings and of course the castle. It's also easy to travel from there to the surrounding areas if your looking to see more.

Beautiful city to explore. We loved the castle - much more to see than expected. The open top bus tour was great- we went all the way round first ( about 1 hour) then stopped off at the museum and the palace. Loads of places to eat & drink

Edinburgh is a very touristy city. We enjoyed walking around the sites and taking a bus tour up into the highlands. It was very, very busy when we were walking around the mile, I wouldn't want to attend much later into the busy season.
"I booked this hotel for a trip to Scotland with my adult children without knowing much about the area. Were we ever amazed to arrive and have Edinburgh castle across the way with a view of the castle from our window. Walkable to tons of shops and restaurants. Absolutely wonderful helpful staff. So friendly. Highly recommend this hotel! "
"This facility is a most unique establishment, capitalizing on its early history as something other than a hotel and/or hostel. Applying a great sense of humour to the accommodation was also enjoyable."
