If you’re after great value have a look at the Best Western Bruntsfield Hotel. With rooms from only £70 this hotel is the perfect base for those on a budget.

The busiest season for tourists in Edinburgh is summer (between July and September) and particularly in August, for the world-famous Edinburgh International Festival, when the city is abuzz with cultural activity.
