One of the coolest hotels we've ever stayed in. The room was lovely and big, the staff were amazing and the breakfast was wonderful (lots of calories though 😄). Surprisingly, the hotel itself (rooms & lounge) was very quiet although the restaurant and bar were always hectic with lots of happy people🍺. Great stay overall!

truly enjoyed my stay at The Scott. The property is beautifully designed in an elegant Scottish style that makes you feel like you’re staying in a small castle — a perfect blend of charm and understated luxury. The staff were exceptionally polite and attentive, always ready to help with any questions or requests. Although the room was not very large, it was thoughtfully furnished, cozy, and had everything we needed. I particularly appreciated the small touches — like the daily treats, cookies, and coffee provided in the room. These little details made the whole experience feel extra special and warm. I would also like to highlight the breakfast — the atmosphere was simply wonderful. The dining room was stunning, the service excellent, and the food both delicious and beautifully presented. There was a nice selection to choose from, and it truly felt like a luxurious start to the day — the perfect way to begin exploring Edinburgh.

Palace of Holyrood House

Still the official Scottish residence of the British monarch, Holyroodhouse has been a seat of royalty since the 16th century. Today, you can visit the former chambers of Mary, Queen of Scots and hear the tale of her doomed reign. And if you look out her oratory window, you can see the well-preserved ruins of the 12th-century Holyrood Abbey.

This palace at the end of the Royal Mile was the ancestral home of Mary Queen of Scots and many more of her Stuart dynasty. The palace is well worth a visit with it's own audio guide so you can travel at your own pace. Some pictures are allowed; some places it isn't. If you keep your ticket, it is good for return visits for up to a year from the date of ticket purchase.

The palace is truly beautiful.

The palace is truly beautiful. The audio tour offers the option to choose your preferred language, which I used to guide myself through the castle using the audio device and the accompanying map. The map is both informative and user-friendly. You can take as much time as you like exploring the rooms, the façade, the interior, and the exterior. The staff are unobtrusive during the tour, yet very attentive and helpful. For a memorable keepsake, there’s an opportunity to shop at the palace store, visit the gallery, or treat yourself at the café.

Much better than Edinburgh Castle for someone wanting to feel like you're stepping back in time. Beautifully maintained! Also, we didn't reserve tickets. I recommend not, we walked up.. got in line, got tickets, and were inside in half the time it took for the pre-reserved ticket holders to get through their line.
