Hotels in New Town, Edinburgh
Edinburgh's New Town is a Georgian masterpiece — wide streets, grand terraces and elegant squares laid out in the 18th century as a rational counterpoint to the chaotic Old Town. Princes Street runs along its southern edge with the Scott Monument and the castle in constant view; Rose Street, Charlotte Square and the boutiques of Stockbridge lie just beyond. Quieter and more refined than the Old Town, it suits travellers who want elegance and good shopping alongside the main sights. Waverley Station and the tram are easy from here; prices tend to sit below the Old Town's hotel premium.
190 hotels within walking distance of New Town, in the heart of Edinburgh, with nightly rates from around £220 to £806 (averaging £395), including 110 properties rated 4 stars or higher. The closest is Queen Street Boutique Suites, about 50m from the centre of the neighbourhood. The nearest major venues are Scottish Gas Murrayfield (2 miles) and Hive Stadium, Edinburgh (2.1 miles), as the crow flies.
