If you regularly book Edinburgh hotels and have visited the many attractions to be in the Scottish capital, why not broaden your horizons and seek out daytrips further afield? Once you've found the perfect accommodation for your needs, you can set about exploring the wider area and discover stunning landscapes, ancient towns and flavourful whiskies. Choosing the right hotel for a Scottish holiday can be difficult, but if you're looking for a comfortable stay without the frills why not consider the bright and modern Express by Holiday Inn Waterfront hotel? Situated near a leisure and shopping complex, the accommodation is beside the historical harbour of Leith and features comfortable rooms with facilities like free parking, a bar and a laundry service. Rooms are equipped with power showers and Sky TV and Wi-Fi is available in public parts of the hotel. After you've settled in, you might be keen to get exploring, and where better to start than the pretty and historic town of St Andrews? Home to Scotland's first university, you'll be able to see the buildings along with all kinds of medieval features that still stand in the location if you book a coach trip for the day. St Andrews is famously the home of golf, so if you enjoy playing the greens be sure to spend a little time on the links course here. Another great place to visit is the renowned Loch Ness. The journey here by coach is just as enjoyable as visiting the lake itself as you'll catch sight of Stirling Castle and the Wallace Monument, as well as the Pass of Glencoe as you travel. Why not arrange to stop at these locations along the way, and you can even fit in a quick trip to Fort William before you reach Loch Ness. However, if you'd like to see these destinations in more detail, you might decide to divide your days between the different places. Once you reach the lake, keep your eyes peeled for the famous monster. You can take a cruise on the lake to get closer to the watery depths or alternatively spend some time exploring the tranquil village to be found on the banks. And of course no trip to Scotland would be complete without a taste of one of the nation's most famous exports - whisky. Make the journey from Edinburgh to Glenturret - the oldest distillery in Scotland - where you can learn more about how the country's best-selling whisky, The Famous Grouse, is made. If you're a connoisseur you might like to invest in a bottle to take back to your hotel and enjoy a nightcap before turning in for the night in your comfortable room. Why not take advantage of some of the Edinburgh hotels available for breaks in the city this year? There are many to choose from, from trendy boutiques and cosy B&Bs, to luxury hotels such as the Express by Holiday Inn Waterfront hotel.
