Pocket Guide: 5 Stars Hotels in Edinburgh

Edinburgh is a city of undeniable character and historic importance. Travellers arrive 365 days a year to visit the city’s landmarks, take part in its many festivals and experience authentic Scottish culture. It has a number of exquisite 5 star hotels for those looking to make their stay extra special.

City Centre Attractions

Whether you are walking up the famous Royal Mile towards Edinburgh Castle or strolling through rows of townhouses and secluded parks in the Georgian New Town, Edinburgh will delight and surprise you. Stay in style at one of the city’s luxury hotels as you explore the famous streets and attractions of the Scottish capital.

Like Edinburgh born author Robert Louis Stevenson’s famous novel Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, the iconic centre of Edinburgh has two distinct sides. The difference here being that both the Old and the New Town are absolutely lovely.

Old and New

Containing magnificent buildings like Edinburgh Castle, St Giles Cathedral and the Palace of Holyroodhouse, Edinburgh’s Old Town has preserved much of its medieval street plan, giving it an antique feel.

Often considered a masterpiece of city planning, construction of Edinburgh’s New Town began at the end of the 18th Century. Cultural highlights include the Scottish National Portrait Gallery on Queen Street and the Royal Botanic Gardens on Arboretum Place.

For an unforgettable luxury city break, book yourself a 5 star accommodation in Edinburgh.
