Edinburgh Hotels

This capital city of Scotland offers a wide variety of things to do. No matter if you're a history buff wanting to learn about the city's roots, or someone looking for more modern entertainment in the arts and culture, Edinburgh will have something special.

Edinburgh's modern Scottish roots can be traced back to the 10th century, giving tourists and visitors to the city plenty to see in art, architecture, and history. Edinburgh Castle is one of the most dominating and popular architectural destinations in the city. The castle is in Old Town. New Town, is not, as its name implies today, really new, but was founded in the 19th century as a way to reduce overpopulation in Old Town. Thanks to the almost 200-year history, New Town is also rich in historical reference. The city is also home to many museums, theaters, and art galleries and a modern convention center.

Leith, which is the port of Edinburgh, would be the port you would enter if coming into Scotland by cruise ship. Fans of children's literature will note that Edinburgh is also home to Harry Potter author J.K. Rowlings. From July through September each year, visitors will surely want to visit one of the festivities associated with the Edinburgh Festival.
