Choose an apartment-style base for days in the city and evenings at your own pace. Explore cooking facilities, comfortable layouts and hotel services for a short break or a longer visit.
An independent BRITARRIVE guide. Check current rates and availability, then book on the provider’s website.
A stay that fits around you
Apartment space with a hotel-style welcome.
An aparthotel combines apartment-style accommodation with hotel operations. Cooking facilities can give you more choice at mealtimes, while reception and shared spaces can make the stay feel more like a hotel.
Choose by the actual room and service schedule. Kitchens, bedroom layouts, cleaning and laundry arrangements vary; the word aparthotel does not guarantee they are all the same.
Two central starting points

What should you compare in an aparthotel?
The right option depends on the routine you want during your visit. Check room descriptions alongside property facilities and rate conditions.
| Your priority | Compare | Ask before booking |
|---|---|---|
| Cooking your own meals | Hob, microwave, oven, fridge and dining space. | Does the specific room have the equipment you need? |
| A smooth arrival | Reception hours, entrances, lifts and luggage storage. | Which route should you use with bags, a pushchair or mobility equipment? |
| An easy longer stay | Laundry, cleaning schedule, linen changes and included bills. | Are services in-room, shared or chargeable? |
| Family sleeping space | Studio versus separate bedroom, sofa beds and occupancy. | Can the exact category accommodate every adult and child? |
| Hotel-style extras | Café, breakfast, coworking, parking and shared facilities. | What is included in your rate and what costs extra? |
| Flexible plans | Cancellation, amendment, deposit and payment rules. | What happens if your arrival date or length of stay changes? |
Choose the address, not just the city
Where should you stay in Edinburgh?
George Street & New Town
Consider Eden Locke if New Town fits your plans. Compare its location with your sightseeing, dining and arrival route rather than assuming every central address offers the same journey.
St James Quarter & the east centre
Consider Roomzzz Edinburgh for a base within St James Quarter. Read its entrance instructions and check the walking route from your station or transport stop.
Old Town & the Royal Mile
If your visit centres on the historic streets, compare wider listings around your preferred sights. Check slopes and steps as well as distance, particularly with luggage or a pushchair.
West End & Haymarket
Compare wider listings on this side of the city if your plans or rail arrival centre on Haymarket. Check the journey to your main destinations before booking.
The featured aparthotels are in New Town and St James Quarter. Other areas are suggestions for a wider search, not additional property recommendations.
Coming for a festival, show or celebration?
Confirm your event dates and venue locations before choosing accommodation. Check the return route after late events and read cancellation terms carefully before paying for a non-refundable rate. This page does not show live room availability.
Make the details work for you
A little planning before you check in.
For a short break, focus on your room layout and a practical location. For longer stays, look more closely at laundry, housekeeping and the space you will use every day.
Compare the final total for the same dates and party size, including applicable taxes, visitor charges, parking and optional extras.
- Bedroom layout: a suite name does not necessarily mean there is a separate bedroom.
- Guest numbers: enter children’s ages and confirm cot, extra-bed or sofa-bed arrangements.
- Cleaning: check the schedule and the cost of extra housekeeping.
- Laundry: confirm whether you have a washer-dryer, shared facilities or a paid service.
- Access: ask about steps, lifts and the actual room if accessibility matters to your stay.
- Parking: check location, availability, height limits and booking requirements if driving.
- Special features: select a category that explicitly includes the view, balcony or layout you want.

Your questions, before you go
Edinburgh aparthotel FAQs
What is an aparthotel?
An aparthotel brings apartment-style accommodation into a hotel-style operation, often combining cooking facilities with reception and housekeeping. Compare the exact room and included services; the label does not guarantee separate bedrooms or daily cleaning.
Which featured Edinburgh aparthotels have 24-hour reception?
Eden Locke and Roomzzz Edinburgh both list 24-hour reception. Check their current arrival instructions and contact the property for unusual arrival times or specific access requirements.
Do the rooms include cooking facilities?
Eden Locke describes kitchen-equipped studios and suites, and Roomzzz Edinburgh lists kitchenettes in its apartments. Check the appliances in your selected room if you need an oven, dishwasher or particular cooking setup.
Is housekeeping provided every day?
Do not assume daily cleaning is included. Eden Locke lists weekly cleaning, while other arrangements depend on the property and booking. Confirm cleaning, linen changes and any extra-service fees before paying.
Can I book an aparthotel for a weekend or a longer stay?
Search for your actual dates on the provider’s website. Availability and minimum stays vary. For a longer visit, review laundry, housekeeping, payment terms and conditions for extending or shortening your booking.
Are these aparthotels suitable for families?
They can be if the chosen category accommodates everyone. Check children’s ages, bed arrangements and permitted occupancy. An open-plan studio is not the same as an apartment with separate bedrooms.
Are the featured properties airport aparthotels?
No. Eden Locke and Roomzzz Edinburgh are central-city options. For an early flight or late arrival, compare the journey with accommodation closer to the airport and check current transport for your travel times.
Do I book through BRITARRIVE?
No. BRITARRIVE helps you discover accommodation and compare practical details. Follow a link to the provider or booking platform to check availability, review conditions and complete your booking. Contact the company named on your confirmation for payment questions, changes and booking support.
