                                          Where to Stay in Edinburgh

                                          Choosing where to stay in Edinburgh is all part of the fun! Whether you're drawn to the historic charm of the Old Town or the trendy vibes of Leith, each neighbourhood has its own unique appeal.

                                          If you’re travelling by train, then you’ll definitely want a city-centre hotel. Edinburgh Waverley is right in the heart of all the best attractions, so you can easily walk from the station to your hotel and manage all the best sights on foot too.

                                          Look for something around the Royal Mile – either Castlehill, Canongate, High Street or Lawnmarket. This is the best region for wandering up to the Castle or visiting the unique Holyrood building, and you’ve got plenty of shops and restaurants on the doorstep.

                                          But if you’re driving, you might find it easier to pick somewhere on the outskirts for easy parking, and then use the trams or buses to get around.

                                          Insider Tips for Edinburgh

                                          • Skip the tourist shops and instead head to the Grassmarket area for more unique souvenirs and craft items.
                                          • A stroll along the Water of Leith Walkway is a great way to escape the bustle of the city centre and see a really beautiful, underrated side of Edinburgh.
                                          • For breathtaking views of Edinburgh's skyline, skip the crowds at Arthur's Seat and head to Calton Hill instead. It's a lesser-known spot, but the panoramic vistas are well worth the visit!
                                          • While we’ve got loads of options for last minute hotels in Edinburgh, try and book early for the Fringe – prices go up, and availability in the best locations can be scarce as you get nearer the festival.
