The hotel looks stunning, bus stop outside that takes you in the city centre in 10 minutes. Lovely setting plenty of alternative car parks in the ground, might be awkward parking when the University is open. Right by Arthurs Seat which is a must to do for fantastic views over the city.

The Best Stay ever!
There are no words sufficient to express the degree to which we loved our stay at the Scott Hotel in Edinburgh. The staff are the nicest, warmest, most friendly people imaginable, and all catered to our smallest - and largest -requests! They moved serving tables to accommodate us and our friends for a supper in their cozy Velvet Lounge, and served the meals from their adjacent Brasserie restaurant, and all with smiles and bonhomie. We felt, not like guests, but lords of the manor! A marvellous p, comfortable and most enjoyable visit.
