Kings of apartments

Thursday, April 21st, 2011

Kings of Leon have announced their biggest ever Scottish gig. See it and stay in Edinburgh with Serviced City Pads.

Highly-acclaimed American rock band Kings of Leon are to play Murrayfield next June. This afternoon’s announcement that the family group will play at the home of Scottish Rugby – on Sunday 26 June 2011 – follows hard on the heels of confirmation that Bon Jovi will play at Murrayfield on Wednesday 22 June 2011.

The rocker family will play Murrayfield Stadium, Edinburgh, on June 26 this year. It puts paid to rumours they were going to headline next year’s T in the Park. It also stops the grumbles from fans who were incensed the group didn’t include any Scottish dates in their December tour of the UK later this year.

The Murrayfield gig will see the group – singer Caleb Followill, his brothers Nathan, Jared and cousin Matthew – play at the home of rugby. The stadium has a capacity of 67,000 and the biggest Scots venue they had headlined before that had been Glasgow’s SECC in December 2008, although they also headlined T in the Park in 2009.

Our serviced apartments in Edinburgh offer a great alternative to hotels. The Edinburgh serviced accommodation we offer is value for money and will allow you the freedom that hotels can not. If you wish to come on a trip to Manchester then call our reservations team today on 08443358866. Serviced City Pads are the premier booking agency for serviced accommodation in Manchester and across the UK. Many of our apartments are available to book online. We can also offer you a personal booking service from a team with strong local knowledge

The band can’t wait to get back to Scotland and Caleb admitted they keep touring because he has been used to being on the road from birth. He said: “Immediately after my birth, my mom had a little suitcase and put it in between her legs in the footwell of the front seat and laid me in it. “From the word go I was always in the car, so touring was never going to be a problem.”

The band will perform in five UK venues next summer, including a return to London’s Hyde Park, the scene of last year’s triumphant headline performance to 65,000 fans. They will also play shows in Coventry, Sunderland and Manchester. They reached No1 in the UK album charts with fifth album Come Around Sundown which became their third consecutive album to debut at No1. It also took the biggest week one sales of the year and the biggest ever first week digital sales. The Followills, who release new single Pyro on December 6, were in London this week and played seven tracks f rom their latest album, including current hit Radioactive.

The band had a few teething problems early on as they struggled to kick off new track Mary, with singer Caleb later telling the crowd: We are doing some songs we have never played before and we are playing some we haven’t played in a long time, so bear with us.

We’re sure they’ll be better rehearsed in time for Murrayfield.

If you or anybody you know is coming to Edinburgh then try staying in one of our serviced apartments. They are more comfortable and more spacious than a hotel room, allowing you and your friends a place to relax and cater for yourselves. Serviced City Pads have apartments throughout the UK.

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.

As usual the festival will feature hundreds of talks, tours and exhibitions for children, families and adults in various locations around the city.

If you’ve not heard of it before, the Edinburgh International Science Festival is one of the largest science festivals in Europe with the last event in 2010 containing over 200 different science events across Edinburgh.  Not only is it a great opportunity for the public to celebrate some of the inventions and innovations of the world of technology and science, but also gives scientists a chance to share their work and passion for science with the public. This is done through hundreds of different events including shows, workshops, exhibitions and lectures. Have a look at the festival website to check out the events for this year and latest news, www.sciencefestival.co.uk.

Last year’s Edinburgh International Science Festival was a great success and the festival won the title of ‘Best Cultural Event’ at the Scottish Event Awards in September. So expect more of the same in 2011 with a new programme of events ready to amaze and excite the public’s imagination.

As you can imagine the Edinburgh International Science Festival is a hugely popular event with children and families, and many parents will be looking to plan a weekend or week up in Edinburgh. As far as accommodation is concerned Edinburgh has a wide variety of options but there is one in particular that is ideal for families and that is serviced apartments. With a separate bedroom and twice the space of a normal hotel room, serviced apartments provide a much welcome change for parents away with their families. After spending a whole day out and about with the kids, having the comfort of your own bedroom and knowing that with the self-catering facilities you can cater for even the fussiest of children, a serviced apartment is the logical choice for family accommodation in Edinburgh.

What You Should Expect From Your Edinburgh Accommodation

Thursday, May 6th, 2010

When visiting Edinburgh, it is vital you find the most suitable accommodation available. If you don’t plan your accommodation carefully, it could ruin your whole trip. Whether in the city for business or leisure, you need somewhere comfortable and inviting where you can return to at the end of the day for a well-deserved rest. There are two important factors to take into consideration when choosing your accommodation in Edinburgh.

You must find somewhere spacious. No guest likes to be shown to a small and cramped room. You immediately feel confined and restricted when presented with a space like this and this can be depressing. It can make you not want to relax there and this is not what accommodation in Edinburgh should offer. Where you stay should be a spacious and comfortable environment where you can spend your time working or relaxing.

The second factor which must be taken into consideration is price. The majority of us travel on a budget. We don’t want to be spending a small fortune on a luxury hotel in Edinburgh but we also do not want to slum it in cheap accommodation. It is important to find high quality accommodation at an affordable price.

Serviced apartments in Edinburgh can offer you both of these things. These apartments are spacious, tastefully decorated, comfortably furnished and affordably priced too. They are perfect for your Edinburgh accommodation needs.

We at Serviced City Pads know what visitors to Edinburgh are looking for from their accommodation and our serviced apartments in Edinburgh are suitable for these requirements.

Do You Know There Are Luxury Serviced Apartments In Edinburgh?

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010

When considering accommodation in Edinburgh, it is likely you immediately think of a hotel or bed and breakfast. However, hotels and bed and breakfasts cannot always offer visitors what they want from their accommodation. Accommodation of this kind does not provide guests with a lot of space, freedom or choice.

Those who choose to stay with a hotel will have a small room to call their own and will be very limited with what they can do within this room. They will not be able to prepare their own meal should they wish to, will not have much privacy as other guests will also be staying in the same location and will generally just feel like one of many.

Serviced apartments in Edinburgh are different. They offer those looking for hotels in Edinburgh somewhere special to stay. Edinburgh serviced apartments are spacious and are fully-furnished with top quality furniture and fittings. This means guests can enjoy a relaxing stay in these well-equipped apartments and will have everything they need. Serviced apartments provide visitors with a comfortable and luxurious environment and their own private space which they can call their own for as long as they need to.

We at Serviced City Pads understand the importance of accommodation. Our luxury serviced apartments in Edinburgh have been developed to provide you with a small piece of home even when you are away. Our Edinburgh serviced apartments are available in range of sizes and for varying budgets too.
