Why choose MEININGER for your group trip to Edinburgh?

Edinburgh is made for group trips: it's easy to get around, packed with fun things to do, and full of moments you’ll talk about for years. If you’re looking for group accommodation in Edinburgh, MEININGER Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket is the kind of place that keeps everyone together without blowing the budget. Comfy rooms, shared spaces, and a chill vibe make it simple to explore the city as a team and have a great time doing it.

Edinburgh has this easy charm that just pulls you in. You’ve got medieval streets, elegant Georgian homes, cozy pubs, and so much culture packed into one walkable city. The Old Town and New Town are both UNESCO sites, and everywhere you wander there’s something worth stopping for: a tiny lane, a leafy square, or that perfect view of the castle sitting proudly on its rock.

One of the best things about Edinburgh is how simple it is to get around. You can go from the Royal Mile to Princes Street Gardens or hike up Arthur’s Seat for those amazing views, all in one relaxed day. The city is full of museums, markets, cafés, and friendly pubs, and when festival season hits in August, it feels like the whole place comes alive. December is just as magical with Christmas markets and Hogmanay lighting up the city.

You’ll find our hotel in Haymarket, a lively and super convenient spot just west of the center. We're super close to everything: the EICC, Usher Hall, Dean Village, and the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art are all an easy walk away. Plus, Haymarket Station is right there, so getting to the airport or hopping on a tram or train is a breeze.

If you’re looking for Edinburgh hotels that feel friendly, relaxed, and comfortable (or you just like staying somewhere cool and budget-friendly), well... we hate bragging but our central hotel in Edinburgh is the perfect place to start your adventures.
