About St Christopher's Edinburgh
Internet Access Breakfast Included 24 hour reception
St Christopher's now has a fully refurbished Belushi's Restaurant and a separate entertainment venue for your enjoyment!
When you arrive we guarantee a warm and friendly welcome from our well travelled team - who are more than willing to help you with any questions you might have.
You can find us just next to Edinburgh Waverly Train Station and a few minutes away from the Airport Shuttle drop off point and the main Bus Station.
We are also near Princes Street which was built as part of the New Town - in the latter half of the 18th century. Today the street is a historical divide between the monumental Edinburgh Castle and the northern shoppers on the high street. In true Georgian style, towering over the the modern shops is 200 feet of the Sir Walter Scott Monument, circa 1846. Visitors looking for a tremendous view of the Edinburgh skyline are invited to tackle the 287 steps for the pleasure.
No trip to Edinburgh is complete without a taste of Scotland's foremost culinary delight - a steaming bit of Haggis. If you fancy it then you're in luck because the most famous Haggis maker in the world, Mr Charles MacSween, resides right here in our fair city. For the uninitiated Haggis diners, Scotland is full of the world's finest whiskey to help ease the way. Our staff are at your disposal when it comes to recommendations!

I thought the accomodation was good value for money and was impressed when we were told that the cost also included a free breakfast! The room was quite small so I wouldn't have wanted to share with people I didn't know
The location was very central, easy to get to from the station. The only downfall of this was the noise even though we were on the third floor
