Make Edinburgh yours

One extraordinary city. Your choice of ways to experience it.
Edinburgh Castle and the Old Town.
Arthur’s Seat and wide-open views.
Independent cafés, restaurants and bars.
Music, art and galleries.
Parks and green spaces.
World-famous festivals.
And a huge student community bringing energy to it all.
You can spend the day exploring the city, find a favourite spot for coffee, meet friends for dinner, deep dive into history or discover something completely new. And when you want a change of pace, Edinburgh’s parks, neighbourhoods and quieter corners are waiting to be explored.

Some cities are impressive. Edinburgh is unforgettable.
Dramatic architecture, winding streets and a skyline full of history give Edinburgh a character all of its own. But beneath the grandeur is a lively, creative city where cafés, music, culture, food and student life all come together.
The historic and political capital of Scotland, Edinburgh is both a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a UNESCO City of Literature, home to world-class events like the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and the Scottish Parliament.
It’s a city made for exploring - and for finding your own favourite corner to soak in the best of Scotland.
Your room is just the beginning.
The first friend you make.
The first night out.
The first time you find your favourite coffee spot.
The day you finally feel like you know your way around.
The random Tuesday that somehow becomes a memory you never forget.
These are the moments that make university yours.
