If your kids are dragging you to Edinburgh to cast a wee, watery eye over the Greyfriars’ Bobby Statue and a grisly tour of the city’s ghostly underbelly then this four-star city centre hotel just up from the Meadows offers flexible accommodation that’s takes you and your kids holiday a little more seriously than most. Lodging at the Novotel Edinburgh City Centre is free to kids under 16 staying with parent or guardian’s bedroom and they even throw in a free buffet breakfast for the little tinkers. There’s also a children’s play area and a balanced children’s menu on offer and just occasionally, a personalized gift!.

Kids will enjoy splashing around in the swimming pool whilst the old folks can enter serious meltdown in the Novotel sauna and hot tubs. Grassmarket is just five-minutes walk and Princes Street is a 10-minute walk away. Kids of 16 years and under can stay free when sharing a room with adults up to 2 childrena room. Cosy and relaxing and about as central as they come – R4U
