Explore Edinburgh Old Town
Edinburgh after the crowds
Nightjar is designed around the hours when the Old Town changes pace. Museums and closes give way to intimate restaurants, basement stages and long walks through lamplit streets. The hotel team keeps a concise nightly list of performances, late kitchens and neighbourhood bars, helping guests find places with real atmosphere rather than following the same familiar city-break checklist.
Why the hotel wakes up late
Breakfast continues well into the morning, the listening room becomes more animated after dinner and a proper small-plates menu is available until midnight. This rhythm suits theatre weekends, festival visits and travellers arriving on a late train. Bedrooms sit behind acoustically treated corridors, so the social energy downstairs does not follow guests when they decide the evening is over.
Choosing a room for the city
The Nook is compact and efficient for guests who expect to spend most of the day outside. Night Rooms add a deeper bath and more space to unwind, while the Eyrie works for longer weekends or anyone who wants a private place to listen to records above the roofs. Every category shares the same blackout, acoustic and bedding standards, making room size the main decision.
