Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club

8/10 Good

"Overall pretty good if a bit dated"

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Was a nice room. Not very big, but its expected. I was worried about the gym as the photos online show a poorly equipped room. However, they have upgraded since then! It is still a small room, where 1-3 people can workout at the same time. But they have dumbbells up to 22KG, a seated bench press up to 100KG, a leg extension machine, a decent rower and 2 other cardio machines. Its a big hot in there and I'm not sure if the window opens, but its much better than I was expecting. Location is good, off to one end of town more but was quite and still easy to walk to main transit stations."

When is the best time to go to Pilton?

The best time to go to Pilton is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is generally mildest and the days are long.

During this period, you'll find average temperatures ranging from 15°C to 20°C, making it pleasant for exploring the outdoors. The longer daylight hours, with sunsets often after 9 PM, provide ample time for sightseeing and enjoying the natural beauty of the area.

Couples looking for a relaxing escape will find the summer ideal for gentle walks around the Pilton Estate or exploring the nearby Pentland Hills Regional Park. The warmer weather also makes it great for enjoying al fresco dining at local pubs and restaurants.

For families, the summer offers the best opportunity to enjoy activities such as visiting the Edinburgh Zoo, which is a short drive away, or spending a day at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, both of which are more enjoyable in good weather. Many local attractions also have extended opening hours during this peak season.

While summer is popular, if you prefer fewer crowds and don't mind cooler temperatures, late spring (April-May) or early autumn (September-October) can also be lovely.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline − this is often within 24 to 48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy.
