Don’t worry if you’re rethinking your Edinburgh holiday package — you can cancel or amend your booking. And if you’ve booked it within the last 24 hours, you may be able to do it at no cost. However, bookings made more than 24 hours ago may incur a fee from your hotel, airline or car rental company. We totally get that your circumstances can suddenly change, so head to our Customer Service Portal if that happens. When you’re ready to make changes, we’ll be here to help.

New Town is a great base for your upcoming Edinburgh escape. Secure a room in a nice hotel and spend your days wandering around popular attractions such as Edinburgh Playhouse Theatre and Princes Street Gardens. Old Town is another option. Base yourself here and Edinburgh Castle and St. Giles Cathedral will be within easy reach of your hotel.

If you’re planning to stay in the New Town neighbourhood, some excellent options are InterContinental Edinburgh The George, an IHG Hotel and The Balmoral Hotel. West End is another popular Edinburgh area. We recommend Waldorf Astoria Edinburgh - The Caledonian or Point A Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket if you prefer this part of town.

It all depends on the airline, but you can generally compare international airfares on Expedia up to 12 months in advance. While it’s generally a good idea to book ahead of time, lucky travellers occasionally nab a cheaper flight only weeks before the date of departure.
