forthcoming events
As we are so close to Edinburgh, what’s on in and around Edinburgh is really what matters. And ‘what’s not on’ might be a better question, in a city of great vibrancy and diversity.
Major forthcoming events near the hotel include the superb Edinburgh International Film Festival - the longest continually running film festival in the world.
