or Edinburgh accommodation? Edinburgh, a city in the United Kingdom, is the capital of Scotland and is the second largest city in Scotland after Glasgow. It is the seat of the Scottish parliament. It is also the 7th most populated city in the UK. The city is considered as one of the most picturesque cities in Europe, owning mostly to its landscape and its collection of Georgian and Medieval structures. It has been given several nicknames including the ‘Athens of the North’, and ‘Auld Reekie’. Edinburgh is also well known for its ‘Edinburgh Festival’. The Edinburgh Airport serves the city.
The place where Edinburgh now stands was established during the 7th century. It was given a Burgh charter in 1125 and in 1889 it was given a city status. Both the old and new town in Edinburgh have been registered as UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
The Edinburgh Festival is one of the major tourist draws to the city. It is estimated that the number of tourists that arrive in Edinburgh for the festival equal its resident population, which is roughly 470,000. The festival features several events, perhaps the most famous of these events is the Edinburgh Fringe. Other notable events that draw tourist traffic to Edinburgh include the Edinburgh International Book Fair, Burns Night, St Andrews Day, Hogmanay, and the Beltane Fire Festival.
Outside of London, Edinburgh has one of the strongest economies in the UK. It thrives on its diversity and provides a hub for business, service, tourism, and retailing industries. Banking and finance are also top industries in the city. The manufacturing arm of Edinburgh, however, has not been as strong as that of Glasgow.
Some of the top hotels found in Edinburgh include the Hotel Missoni, the Rocco Forte Balmoral Hotel, the Scotsman Hotel, the Fountain Court Apartments, and the Glasshouse Edinburgh. - Browse the Edinburgh Map or compare Edinburgh accommodation from Hotels, Motels, B&Bs,
