Cumberland Hotel - Edinburgh

The Cumberland Hotel lies in its own attractive grounds overlooking the main A8 tourist route into Edinburgh. We are just 10 mins walk from Princes Street and 10 mins drive from Edinburgh Airport. The hotel is conveniently located for both exploring the delights of the capital city and the main attractions such as the Fife Tourist Route and The Forth Bridges, and further afield - St Andrews, Stirling, Glasgow, Loch Lomond - all within an hours drive. Cumberland Hotel is housed in two of the most architecturally attractive Listed Victorian Buildings in the West End of Edinburgh. The Hotel has been recently renovated to retain its original Victorian features, with superb cornices and large rooms. Visitors to The Cumberland are immediately aware of the elegance of their surroundings, from the attractive dining room serving full Scottish breakfasts with continental and vegetarian alternatives, to the spacious and relaxing residents' lounge and the intimate cocktail bar, with its traditional stone façade, where guests can enjoy a quiet evening discussing the day's events. For those who are perhaps coming to Edinburgh for the first time, The Cumberland, with its friendly and helpful staff, is the ideal choice. The hotel has a large car park with Surveillance camera. An attractive beer garden to the rear of the hotel allows you to enjoy a drink in a relaxed and peaceful environment. There is no lift at this hotel.
