The Scotsman Hotel is based in the same building that used to house the ground-breaking national newspaper of the same name and is steeped in a long history of the area.

This upscale historical boutique offers unique views and a feel for days of old.

The most affordable option is to take the Line 100 bus, which will take around 36min and cost roughly £5. The bus stops at the station on South St David Street, which is about a 7min walk away from the hotel. For the most efficient option, consider hiring a taxi from outside the arrivals area. This trip will take close to 20min and will cost around £25.
