The best hotels Edinburgh

Staying in a yacht? Treat yourself to a luxurious suite in an exceptional building, on the water, and imagine yourself sailing away from it all, in the calm and pleasure of a top-of-the-range cruise. Cabins as spacious as they are luxurious, excellent welcome and service, authentic and generous Scottish breakfast, gourmet afternoon tea, fine and elegant dinner... So many things to enjoy! And nothing was said about the whisky bar, the breathtaking view of the waterfront... This hotel has won several awards, and it only takes a visit to understand why!

Mrs Moira Conway offers you unparalleled hospitality in a quiet and bright house. It will share your knowledge about the city and tell you the timetables, routes to borrow or avoid, buses to take…

Caddon View is a Victorian house built in 1850. You will stay in tastefully decorated, comfortable and charming "classic" and "superior" rooms (8 in total). All have TV with DVD player, storage space, hairdryer, hospitality tray and en-suite or private bathroom. In May 2019, Lisa and Steve, the owners, opened the Sitooterie Café, offering a selection of Scottish produce, light lunches (100% local and homemade) and afternoon teas.

The Market Street Hotel's prime location, within walking distance of the castle and the Royal Mile, is just one of its many assets. Its 98 rooms and suites are modern and carefully decorated, even the Cozy rooms, which are the least spacious. The staff is friendly and attentive. The breakfast, at an additional cost, is tasty and made from regional products. In short, a beautiful address, which effectively links the city's heritage with its present, embodied by the New Town just north.

Malmaison has a knack for putting its hotels in the most beautiful buildings. Edinburgh is no exception. This luxury sign is here in the former Sailor's Home, a building dating from 1883 where sailors once spent the night. The 100 rooms are very pleasant and the proximity of some of the best restaurants in town will delight gourmets. The service is of course impeccable and a brewery is accessible to all. Good plan: Malmaison often offers very interesting prices, for a top-of-the-range standing.

Opulence and grandeur make Prestonfield House an extraordinary destination in Great Britain. This stunning property was built as a rural retreat in 1687 and has lost none of its splendour. Converted into a luxury hotel in the 1960s, Margaret Thatcher, Winston Churchill, Sean Connery and Elton John stayed here. The 23 rooms exude luxury and their rustic furnishings give the stay a feeling of a Highland castle in the middle of the capital. The vast garden at the foot of Arthur's Seat adds much to the character of the place.

This hotel combines comfort and quality at an affordable price. The 46 rooms have been recently renovated. The original features of this house of character have been carefully preserved and are enhanced by vintage rooms in a fresh, contemporary and family atmosphere. In the elegant dining room on the ground floor you can enjoy an excellent award-winning breakfast every morning, prepared to order by the chef using local produce. Good plan: breakfast offered in direct booking via the site!
