Splendid castle hotel just to the South of Edinburgh. Super popular with wedding planners and visitors seeking castle experience. Award winning.

A stunning stylish, chic contemporary hotel in the centre of Edinburgh,  great funky Italian bathrooms and plenty of amenities. However can be rather pricey - check out deals on Laterooms for best bargains. Great location in the centre of the action.

Central to Old Town of Edinburgh and posh as all get up. Chester Residences are aimed at a combination of the discerning business traveller (aka those with major expenses budgets) and the weekend visitor looking for comfort and luxury. They hit bullseye with both! The winner of Tripadvisors Travellers Choice 2010. Recommended.

Wonderful location on the roof with rooms facing out onto Calton Hill. Private and modern but in the centre of town. Snap it up if the rate is good.

Traditional five star in the New Town with a somewhat staid quality but very traditional and also popular with international visitors. The way hotels used to be!

Luxury boutique townhouse hotel in Edinburgh's new town. Highly recommended.

The Scotsman Hotel in Edinburgh provokes wildly differing responses from its guests: those who love it and its staff and those who find is tired and lacklustre. For some the Scotsman is the highlight of their trip with particular praise for the concierge who is all knowing about whats on in town. The Scotsman's central location makes it perfect for visitors who plan to browse through Edinburgh.

On the downside, some guests complain of noise from Waverley Station and the 06:50 train announcements as well as hot rooms with dodgy thermostats. Parts of the Scotsman could do with a bit of a makeover.

Ideal weekend break and romantic weekend hotel located in the very centre of Edinburgh and containing its own cocktail bar and nightclub. Chic, loud and brash and also a lot of fun. Recommended.
