Where to sleep in Edinburgh — the neighborhoods and the picks, siesta side to fiesta side.
Old Town — on the Royal Mile
Closes and wynds between the castle and Holyrood — atmospheric, touristy, unbeatable.
New Town — Georgian calm
Elegant crescents and cocktail bars five minutes from the Mile.
Stockbridge — the village
Sunday market, bookshops and the Water of Leith walk.
Leith — the shore
The old port turned food quarter — Michelin stars by the docks.
Festival warning
August triples prices and halves availability — book months out or come in June/September.
