Simply the quickest way to book a central hotel with pretty nifty map availability, I have not seen it on any other site.
A good source of the top three-, four- and five-star hotels and apartments in Edinburgh and what to do in the city. You can also book online and find business meeting rooms based on numbers required.
Accommodation and travel directory for Edinburgh with more than 200 hotels, hostels and guest houses listed.
It is the place to stay in Edinburgh, it looks absolutely stunning on the outside and from the polite doormen to the Michelin-starred restaurant this is the height of luxury. Well worth a look around, even for a coffee if you cant afford to splash out for a room!

Cheap especially for a single room. I paid £24 for a single ensuite room. Centrally located, 10 minutes walk from Waverley rail station and Princes St. Breakfast not great, but good if you want budget accommodation with your own bathroom at a cheap rate.

A beautiful, gothic-style, top-class hotel which whisks you away to another world. It's luxurious, the staff are great and the Secret Garden restaurant serves fantastic food. You do have to book well in advance, but it's definitely worth it!
Right next to Edinburgh castle

Fantasy-like love nest hotel snuggled into the castle. It's unbelievably camp and over the top with roll-top baths, bizarre mix of busts and antiques, four-poster beds, and it just feels so unique and so sexy. Daily bottle of champagne helps, and there's great food in the Secret Garden. Not cheap, but worth it for a night of unbridled passion.

I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a really luxurious treat. It’s new and very opulent, and that bit different. It has eighteen rooms, all themed around a city (for instance: LA, Dublin, Marrakech, Beijing). We stayed last time in Atlantis, which was absolutely beautiful. Attention to detail is first class, staff are really friendly, and you get a welcome drink on arrival. Right in the centre of Edinburgh on the very stylish George Street, it also has three bars called Paris, Milan and Vienna and a nightclub called Tokyo in the basement. I particularly enjoyed the French martinis in Paris bar. Definitely wish to go back soon.

This luxury five-star hotel features a striking clock tower which defines Edinburgh's skyline. It can be seen from anywhere in the city.
If you're lucky enough to stay, the views from the top floors are amazing. You can see the Princes Street gardens and all of the Old Town.
The Balmoral Hotel lies at the eastern end of Princes Street just a 10 min walk from Waverley Street train station.
