About
If you're strolling along Queen Street in Edinburgh's New Town, you can't miss YOTEL Edinburgh – a sleek, modern hub that effortlessly blends style with function. Step into the atmospheric Revolve bar and lounge, where you can sip a local craft beer while watching city life through floor-to-ceiling windows, or grab a table in the co-working space if you need to catch up on emails. The real showstopper is Imaginex, a dramatic two-storey 360° screening room that hosts everything from film premieres to themed brunches like the monthly Brunch Club. Insider tip: add afternoon tea (£24) when you book – it's a quintessentially British treat served in the lounge. The ultra-modern gym is open 24/7, and the entire hotel is cashless and wheelchair accessible, so you can check in hassle-free at the self-service kiosks.
