Where to stay in Edinburgh
Edinburgh is a city full of history, culture, and stunning architecture. Each neighborhood has its own unique character, so it's important to choose the right one for your stay. From the cobbled streets of Old Town, to the Georgian elegance of New Town, there's a neighborhood to suit everyone's taste.
Old Town
The oldest part of Edinburgh, Old Town is full of charm and character. It's home to many of the city's most famous landmarks, including Edinburgh Castle and the Royal Mile. The narrow cobbled streets are lined with historic buildings, traditional pubs, and quirky shops. It's a great neighborhood to stay in if you want to be in the heart of the action.
New Town
Built in the late 18th century, New Town is a masterpiece of Georgian architecture. The wide streets and grand buildings give the neighborhood a sense of elegance and sophistication. It's home to some of the city's best restaurants, boutiques, and galleries. If you're looking for a more upscale stay, New Town is the place to be.
Stockbridge
Located just north of New Town, Stockbridge is a charming neighborhood with a village-like feel. It's home to a bustling Sunday market, independent shops, and some of the city's best restaurants and cafes. The streets are lined with beautiful Georgian and Victorian townhouses, and the Water of Leith river runs through the heart of the neighborhood.
Leith
Once a separate town, Leith has now been absorbed into Edinburgh. It has a rich maritime history and is home to the Royal Yacht Britannia, which is now a museum. The neighborhood has undergone significant regeneration in recent years and is now one of the trendiest parts of the city. It's home to a thriving food and drink scene, with many restaurants and bars located in converted warehouses and dock buildings.
Morningside
Located south of the city center, Morningside is a peaceful and affluent neighborhood. It's home to many independent shops, cafes, and restaurants, as well as some of the city's best parks and green spaces. It's a great neighborhood to stay in if you want to be close to the city center, but away from the hustle and bustle.
