Perth (Scotland) AccommodationSearching for hotels in Perth (Scotland) ( United Kingdom) or Perth (Scotland) accommodation? The town of Perth, in Scotland, used to be a Royal Burgh, and is currently home to a population of around forty three thousand people. It perches on the banks of the River Tay, and while it is still an important administrative centre for the area, it is one of the three places in the United Kingdom that were downgraded from city status.The area of Perth and its surrounds have been occupied by human settlements for around eight thousand years, but the town itself traces its history back to the 12th century, when King David the first granted it burgh status. To see more of this history, its worth paying a visit to the Perth Museum and Art Gallery, which is located near the River Tay on George Street, and if you are in town during May, visiting the Perth Festival of the Arts is a great way to spend some time. Visiting the St John’s Kirk is another way to find out more about this interesting former city’s history, as the building dates back to the 12th century, and the nearby Huntingtower Castle and Elcho Castles are also well worth planning a visit to. - Browse the Perth (Scotland) Map or compare Perth (Scotland) accommodation from Hotels, Motels, B&Bs, Lodging & Hostels to Holiday & Caravan Parks.
