Edinburgh’s history dates back to Roman times (AD79) with the city growing in size and stature throughout the middle ages. Much of the stunning architecture dates back to Georgian and Victoria times. Thankfully many of the beautiful buildings situated throughout the old town were preserved and returned to their former glory, during a time when other British cities were pulling down their heritage and replacing it with concrete. Edinburgh is a visually stunning place to visit.

Edinburgh Night Life

Monday, December 20th, 2010

Fancy expanding your horizons and going somewhere different for a night out? Why not try Edinburgh. The Scottish Capital has a lot to offer and provides an alternative night life to your usual Saturday night.  Edinburgh has a large number of pubs, clubs and restaurants. In recent years George Street in the New Town has grown in prominence, with a large number of new, upmarket public houses and nightclubs opening, along with a number on the parallel Queen Street. Stockbridge and the waterfront at Leith are also increasingly fashionable areas, with a number of pins, clubs and restaurants. 

The largest nightclubs are Lava & Ignite and City Nightclub, as well as The University’s student union, Potterrow. Smaller commercial venues include Base, Faith, Stereo and Karma. In recent year’s night clubs on George Street such as Opal Lounge, Lulu’s, Why Not and Shanghai have become popular.

The main alternative, indie and rock nights are hosted at The Hive, Opium and Studio 24. The Liquid Room re-opened on 4th August 2010 after undergoing a full re-fit, after being damaged by the fire that destroyed an Indian restaurant which was situated behind it in December 2008. The GRV, Cabaret Voltaire, The Bongo Club and Sneaky Pete’s now host the majority of underground events in Edinburgh.

An Alternative Choice Of Accommodation

Friday, May 21st, 2010

When visiting Edinburgh whether for business or pleasure it is instinctive to book a hotel to accommodate you for your stay. This is especially true when you are arriving by plane and the most convenient choice is the airport hotels in Edinburgh. Most people find hotels convenient and a relatively low cost option and don’t consider anything else.

Hotels in Edinburgh provide the basic necessities in a hotel room with very few extras, unless you are prepared to pay for a very high standard in a luxury hotel. These are few and far between as many people are looking for good standards at a low price, especially if they are travelling for a holiday or short break. Edinburgh hotels are usually quite noisy and busy places to spend time, especially at night time. Inconsiderate guests arriving at the hotel late at night, perhaps after spending the evening in town can be quite noisy and interrupt your rest. Whether you are on business or on holiday it is important to feel refreshed ready for the day ahead.

An apartment in the city is an alternative that should always be considered. Staying in serviced apartments in Edinburgh will allow privacy as well as peace and quiet so that you can recharge your batteries ready for a hectic day ahead. Locating an apartment that will provide luxury at a low cost is quite difficult but here at Serviced City Pads we have included all the essentials for a pleasant stay in Edinburgh as well as luxury to rival the airport hotels in Edinburgh.

Give Hotels Near Edinburgh Airport A Miss

Friday, February 26th, 2010

The Scottish capital is a delightful destination for a city break, and a great place in which to do business. If you need somewhere to stay while you’re here, there are plenty of hotels near Edinburgh airport and across the city.

The problem with hotels near Edinburgh airport, or indeed anywhere else, is that they confine you to staying in a single room, and you’re either limited to their dining times or face expensive restaurant bills.

Serviced apartments offer a real alternative to hotels near Edinburgh airport, and are actually cheaper, both because the accommodation costs less, especially over time, and because you can save money by making your own meals.

Not only that but you get a whole self-contained apartment to enjoy, rather than a single room. You won’t have to worry about cleaning, and you’ll find your bed already made up with clean sheets. Serviced apartments are kitted out with everything you need for your stay – from washing machines to DVD players and an Internet connection.

At Serviced City Pads, we have more than 100 fully furnished apartments in Edinburgh and nearby, and we’d be delighted to help you find one that’s perfect for you, whether you’re in town on business or taking a break in the area.

For larger groups, for example, the four-bedroomed Playhouse Apartments provide four star luxury in the heart of the city. Sleeping up to eight people, these excellent value properties cost under £200 a night for a weeknight stay. If you’re after somewhere smaller, choose our one-bedroomed apartment in Rodney Place from just £110 a night.

Visit our web site today and view our full selection of Edinburgh accommodation, all of it completed to an exceedingly high standard.

Get in touch today to discuss your needs further.

Think Before You Book Hotels at Edinburgh Airport

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

Everyone knows the Scottish capital is a fantastic place to visit, either as a tourist or to do business. Edinburgh is packed with history and fantastic architecture, has a rich cultural heritage, and comes into its own every August with its world-famous festival.

If you need somewhere to stay, there are of course plenty of hotels at Edinburgh airport and across the city, from small guesthouses to five-star luxury.

But hotels near Edinburgh airport are not the only places to stay– nor are they necessarily the cheapest option. Serviced apartments provide a home from home, and allow you to self-cater. You’ll also be able to enjoy some of the better aspects of hotel life – including maid service, clean towels and sheets and an Internet connection.

Many people are surprised to discover that, even though they are renting a whole apartment rather than just a room, they can save money by staying in furnished serviced flats rather than, say, hotels at Edinburgh airport.

Take a closer look at what we at Serviced City Pads can offer .With more than 100 self-contained serviced apartments across the city, we’re bound to have one which suits you. And, with prices starting at just £65 a night for an apartment sleeping up to five people, we really can slash the cost of staying in Edinburgh.

Choose from one, two or four bedroomed properties, and stay just outside the city centre, or right in the heart of things. Some of our beautifully finished apartments are just a stone’s throw from the glitz and glamour of shoppers’ heaven Princes Street, the Holyrood Palace or any of the other attractions in this fantastic city.

Get in touch today and you may never give hotels at Edinburgh airport a second thought.
