Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

Overview

Ready for a boujee Scottish adventure? Virgin Hotels Edinburgh is where it's at, plonked right in the heart of the action with a seriously cool vibe. This 5-star stunner is perfect for city breakers looking for a stylish pad to crash after a day of epic exploring, mixing historic charm with modern luxury.

Location

You're basically living inside a postcard here, just steps from Grassmarket and a cheeky 10-minute stroll from the iconic Edinburgh Castle. Head a mere kilometre in any direction and you'll hit the University of Edinburgh or the Royal Mile, with Edinburgh Airport a quick 12.5km jaunt away when your jollies are done.

Rooms

Forget bog-standard; these 222 guestrooms are pure gorg, decked out with Smart TVs for all your binge-watching needs and free Wi-Fi so you can spam your mates with holiday snaps. Sink into a plush bathrobe after a day of sightseeing and know you've got a laptop-compatible safe and desk for any 'urgent' work emails (or just planning your next adventure).

Food & Drink

Fuel up for your Scottish escapades at Commons Club Restaurant, one of two delish spots serving up grub that'll make your tastebuds sing. When the day is done, hit the swanky bar/lounge for a well-deserved tipple or two – because what's a city break without a bit of evening indulgence?

Sports & Entertainment

While there might not be a waterpark to splash about in, you can still get your sweat on at the 24-hour fitness centre, perfect for burning off those haggis suppers. The super helpful concierge team are also on hand to point you towards all the mega sights and sounds of this historic city, so you won't miss a beat.
