The 'Braemar' Guest House is on the west side of the city, close to Edinburgh Zoo and Murrayfield Stadium. Local shops and a good selection of restaurants and bars are only 5 minutes walk away.

We are also conveniently located for access to the many attractions of the city centre, including the castle. Public transport is excellent, with buses passing regularly. You can reach the City centre by bus in just 10 minutes.

Many visitors arrive either at the Airport or Waverley station. In either case, you can reach the 'Braemar' by bus or taxi in 15 minutes.

In addition to visiting local attractions, you may also be interested in one of the many Scottish tours which we can organise personally for you - Loch Ness, St Andrews , The Trossachs, etc. There are also a number of excellent golf courses in and around the city. We are happy to provide additional advice and assistance on any aspect of your stay with us, to ensure that it is an enjoyable one - there is plenty to see and do.

Edinburgh is most famous for its International Arts Festival and New Year celebrations, but has other festivities throughout the year.
