Edinburgh Hotel Reviews

It used to be that Scottish hotels were considered either rather better or much worse than their English counterparts; the good ones were very good, and the bad ones horrid. Today these distinctions no longer exist, and Scotland's capital has an expanding choice of delightful hotel accommodations. The inexpensive Scottish hotel, once reviled, is now at least the equal of anything that might be found in England.

Rooms are harder to find in August and September, when the Edinburgh International Festival and the Fringe Festival take place, so reserve at least three months in advance. Bed-and-breakfast accommodations may be harder to find in December, January, and February, when some proprietors close for a few weeks. Scots are trusting people—many B&B proprietors provide front-door keys and few impose curfews.
