Tourist attraction in Edinburgh

“One of my favourite gardens in Edinburgh, it’s enjoyable to walk around or inside the park. The garden has a collection of different kind of flowers, either wild flowers and blossoms planted by gardeners from spring to summer. The garden is not huge but enough size to be awesome. Apart of that, the park has a coffee shop, playground area for kids, area for skaters and bikes, basketball and football fields and beautiful interior gardens with fish tank included. Everything in one place, what else you can ask for.”

“Corstorphine hill nature reserve, situated beside the Edinburgh zoo, is a peaceful retreat with beautiful greenery and some wildlife. It has nice trails and spots for picnics. It is a perfect place for a relaxing day outdoors.”

“First time exploring Cammo Estate and what a lovely serene place it was. Meandering meadows and woodland walks, dotted with ruins and a wee lake. It's quite small but perfect for an afternoon exploring. Toilets were open nearby the Leaf and Bean coffee van (on a Sunday, check opening times as I think they vary). Will definitely come back!”

“I love walking here and it handy it's right outside my door so many walks you can do and enjoy feeding the ducks if you fancy it”

“Nice wander up past the Royal Observatory, and you get some fabulous views over Edinburgh.”

“1 mile walk to the island over a somewhat slippy path. Beautiful views of the ocean and beach. Beware of tide times they're faster than you think”

“**An Unforgettable Stay – Simply Outstanding!** Our stay at this hotel was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with such warmth and genuine hospitality that we immediately felt at home. The room was absolutely stunning – beautifully decorated, impeccably clean, and offering an unforgettable view of the cathedral that took our breath away. Every detail was thoughtfully curated, and the level of cleanliness was truly exceptional. The breakfast was a real highlight – delicious, fresh, and with a wide variety that left nothing to be desired. But what made our stay truly extraordinary was Paul and his amazing team. Their hospitality goes far beyond what one would expect – they anticipated our every need, made us feel truly special, and delivered a level of service we have never experienced before. Their passion, professionalism, and care are unmatched. This hotel is, without a doubt, *the place to be*. We cannot recommend it highly enough and are already looking forward to our next visit. A heartfelt thank you to Paul and the entire team – you made our stay unforgettable!”

“After having stayed in Whitworth Locke before in Manchester and having such a good experience, we decided to book this hotel in Edinburgh for my birthday trip! And we’re so glad we did! The rooms are beautiful as they always are in Locke hotels, the cafe downstairs was great. And staff were lovely and friendly! The lady that checked us in was particularly incredible! After having a sleepless night we arrived to the hotel a lot earlier than check in time and we were dreading having to stay out all day running on empty. We asked if there was any chance early check in was available and she allowed us to check in a lot earlier as our room was ready! We were really grateful for this and really appreciate hotels that offer little extras for guests! Thank you :)”

“Exceptional - accommodating staff, great location and half/half pasta on offer! [invite but always honest reviews]”

“This has to be one of the best fine dining, tasting experiences we have had, and we are seasoned fine diners. From start to finish, everything was perfect. The head waiter and staff were amazing, they couldn't do enough for you. We had the anniversary tasting menu, and it was superb, not one dish could we find fault with. My daughter even said it was the best meal she ever had. Highly recommend to anyone.”

“Really nice Pakistani/Indian food with lovely service and great portions; Reasonably priced. Cafe is available upstairs too. Would definitely return and recommend”

“It’s a perfect place to have a nice walk with your dog.”

“Finding the right wedding venue can be so daunting but Dundas and their staff are very experienced and efficient. The venue itself also does not need anything extra as it is stunning! We got lucky with the weather in the end but even if it continued to rain, it was still an amazing day. You can see the value for money in the way they manage big events. It was a day to remember and would highly recommend any bride and groom to book the castle for their wedding. The location is also amazingly close to Edinburgh and the airport. Thank you to all the staff on the day!”

“Came here on the off chance we could get a quick and tasty meal, I have to say our experience was near perfect, the staff were pleasant and polite, the food was very tasty, we had lasagne and pizza with skinny fries. My lasagne was delicious and my partners Pizza was just as nice, the fries were cooked perfectly, on our way out we had a lovely chat with the gentleman who served us and he was pleasant, polite and made us feel welcome to return. only issue we had was my partner likes her pizza a little bit more cooked/charred but that is not a fault of the chef we forgot to advise. To finish my review I would like to say if you want good food and good value for money you cannot go wrong with this wee restaurant.”

“In for takeaway, had a chicken cesaer wrap, Food amazing in this wee place Deffo be back next time I'm in the area. Might look expensive for some folk but ye only get what ye pay for. And I certainly did! Compliments”

“If there had been an option for 7 stars I would have used it! Definitely the best cup of specialty and artisan coffee in the whole Edinburgh. They use the best ingredients from quality coffee beans to the best type of Oat Milk available in the region! A hotspot for coffee to be soon! Do not miss it when you are around the area”

“Lovely place even when market is on, great food and lovely clean area”

“Food was absolutely delicious,everything was fresh and made to perfection. Atmosphere was cosy and warm, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Definitely will be back.”

“Visited during at the end of the fringe. Friendly staff , you could feel the fizz of anticipation of festival finishing. Nice venue and stage. Relaxed bar with student vibe where ordering a pint or a chamomile tea is equally acceptable”

“A fantastic place if you ever wanna visit Edinburgh, great value for money, clean, modern, walking distance to many places.”

“Outstanding and professional friendly service from the outset. Having made a call to Lawford Kidd and with only a couple of days to spare to get my work place claim in and processed, Derek Carrigan took on my claim knowing time wasn't on our side but this didn't phase him and he dealt with it in a very swift and professional manner. Always kept me updated through every stage of the claim procedure. The claim was settled from start to finish in three months, a lot quicker than I ever imagined. I must thank Derek for the way he put me at ease regarding my claim. I would highly recommend Derek and Lawford Kidd to anyone that requires such services.”

“Tasty food and good presentation at a reasonable price. A good selection of food and cocktails. Service was prompt and attentive. Round tables suitable for group lunch and dinner. Thoroughly enjoyed my dinner.”

“Perfect gem of a restaurant tucked away in Edinburgh. Came in on a whim and it is one of our fave places. The dry rub is exceptional and the bbq sauce is a perfect compliment. The staff are phenomenal and could not do enough to help. Would give 10/10 if i could.”

“Fantastic place , fantastic staff very friendly very accommodating and fantastic prices, and I had the lentil soup which is vegan by the way , it was the best lentil soup I’ve ever had , I will be back for sure”

“We had a delicious Thai dinner for three yesterday. Best I’ve tasted outside Thailand. Also very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended, but be aware that it’s not really a restaurant though they have tables and high stools to sit at.”

“Just finished a Belly Buster Breakfast - was really tasty and will probably keep me going for 24 hours. Really friendly atmosphere, great breakfast and quick service. Will be coming back.”

“Really lovely place. Owner was super friendly and helpful. Room was beautiful and clean. Shower worked well. The breakfast was also great with lots of choices. There is a bus stop right outside that takes you right to the centre.”

“Be aware it is CASH ONLY!! Owner was patient with us and let us try out several darts. He was knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. Great place to get some useful souvenirs and flights for my dart team.”
