There is currently an error with our online booking system which shows no rooms. We are working to address this].<\/strong><br>The University of Edinburgh manages a number of hotels and guest houses all of which are a short walk from campus. You can book UoE managed accommodation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uoecollection.com\/summer-stays-at-the-university-of-edinburgh\/\">here<\/a> (please use the discount code &#8216;EVENT&#8217;). All rooms include breakfast. Note, cheaper options are likely available elsewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\"><strong>Private Accommodation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As a tourist destination, there are numerous options for accommodation in Edinburgh that will suit all types of budgets. We recommend consulting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitscotland.com\/destinations-maps\/edinburgh\/accommodation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Visit Scotland<\/a>,&nbsp;or popular hotel booking sites&nbsp;to find suitable accommodation in the city. There are ample hostels available on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/\">HostelWorld<\/a>.<br><br><strong>Currently, &#8216;Hostelling Scotland&#8217; is offering a 4 night stay in Edinburgh Central for 1-4 September for \u00a3115. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostellingscotland.org.uk\/\">Book here<\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are staying as a group, College Wynd flats (5 mins walk) is ~ \u00a3150pp for 4\/5 people sharing a flat for 1-5 September (Booking.com). We will set up a forum for attendees to find accomodation together shortly. <br><br>Good accommodation options can be found in Leith, Morningside, Polwarth, and Gorgie. Check Travelodge, EasyHotel, and Ibis, for the cheapest rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\"><strong> Accommodation<\/strong> outside of Edinburgh<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Glasgow is a 45 minute train ride away and accommodation is generally much cheaper than in Edinburgh (even taking into account the return train ticket). You could also consider staying in Musselburgh (6 mins train), Queensferry (15 mins train), Livingston (18 mins train), Linlithglow (18 mins train),  Dunfermline (21 mins), and other stations in the commuter belt of Edinburgh. Central campus is a 10 minute walk from Waverley Station. If budget options are not available in Edinburgh, we&#8217;d recommend considering staying in Glasgow or the surrounding areas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Below you can find information on suitable accommodation in the city.
