Maybe It's Time To Look For Somebody Else?

I'm going to edinburgh with a friend for three nights over easter. i realise its not going 2 b cheap. we would like to stay in a hotel rather than a hostel but are conscious about price (we r both students!!!) any ideas would be much appreciated.

i've never been to scotland b4, so we will probably go to glasgow too. what are the best things to do in ether or both cities?

cheers.

Edinburgh is situated between the Pentland Hills and the South Coast of the Firth of Forth and is the capital of Scotland. A recent census put the population at around 450 000 people and growing. There is evidence of human settlement in Edinburgh dating from 1000 BC – making the city one of the longest continuously inhabited places in Northern Europe.The City of Edinburgh is 100 square miles in area and is twinned with Dunedin, New Zealand – Florence, Italy – Kiev, Ukraine – Munich, Germany – Nice, France – San Diego, USA – Vancouver, Canada and Xian, China. The city lies in the shadow of an extinct volcano called Arthur's Seat which at it's peak rises to 822 ft. Edinburgh has a number of nicknames: "Auld Reekie", "Festival City" and "The Athens of the North" due to the amount of fine architecture in the city. Scots speak English with a Scottish accent, so understanding the locals should not be to difficult and visitors to the city can be sure of a warm welcome and expect a safe and pleasant stay.

You could consider staying in a bed and breakfast establishment rather than a hotel. Because it is Easter both hotels and guest houses are going to charge optimum rates so if you are on a tight budget then you might have to stay in a hostel. There is one called St Christopher's Inn in Market Street just outside Waverley Station that might be worth a try.

You would be minutes from the Royal Mile which has Edinburgh Castle at the top and Holyrood Palace at the bottom and a lot of history in between. You will also want to visit the New Town and see Princes Street and Princes Street Gardens which both give good view of the castle.

Hostels can be good value, but cheap does not always equate to cheap.

For example a hotel room may work out better value. Rooms are for 2 , sometimes 3, instead of per person, they are often better situated, saving on transport, offer free inclusions like amenities and big breakfasts etc etc.

So in both Edinburgh and Glasgow , check out comparisons between hostels and hotels, especially on the last minute listings. There's a few links to directories below on Cheaperthanhotels – Glasgow and Edinburgh which may interest you, where you can sort alternatives by price, star rating, location and them go to the amenities, descriptions and photo galleries to get a better idea.

There's probably going to be some good deals coming up for Easter. If you want to be certain and pay a little extra, book early, otherwise take a chance and you may end up with some great deals.

For researching "what's to do" go to the VisitBritain site which is the most authoratitive overview of these great cities, because it is put together by the National Tourism authorities. There are other sites that you can then research, with links accessed for this site.

Have fun ….. and i hope this helped you
