The best places to stay in Edinburgh while touring the city

Summer has passed and taken with it the long days of sunshine and pool parties. However, mid term break is just around the corner and it is the perfect time for a wee get away.

Summer has passed and taken with it the long days of sunshine and pool parties. However, mid term break is just around the corner and it is the perfect time for a wee get away. Our home town of Edinburgh offers stunning views of two worlds one new and one old and full of mystery.

Edinburgh is where two worlds collide. On your stay you will find beautiful vintage stores and high end ones, classic Scottish pubs or vegan restaurants if that is your preference, one of a kind coffee shops or if your prefer your Pumpkin Spice latte at Starbucks we have that too. Edinburgh offers a full range of experiences.

So stay at any of our properties for example the Edinburgh Castle Suite; this unique property provides you with a stay you will not forget as well as a stunning view of our very own grand castle.

The Edinburgh Castle View; this place is the ideal weekend apartment with its direct views of the castle and its close proximity to the city center you have everything you need within walking distance.

Quartermile Luxe; features a breathtaking terrace including a built in hot tub, perfect for warming you up on a cold autumn evening. 

Dean View; situated on the West End is beautiful on the inside and out, with room for four people it’s ideal for your family holiday. 

As the darkness settles over us and Halloween creeps closer we suggest delving into Edinburgh's darker side on your stay this October. One of our favorite things to do this time of year is taking the historical and ghost walks at Mercat Tours. It will make your historical stay in Edinburgh even more interesting. They even provide you with a dram of whiskey to warm your soul as you travel through time.

As the Mercat Tours sets you in the Halloween mood they also offer you a discount if you are a guest at The Edinburgh Address.
