"Amidst the Tony award-winning musicals, famous shows, high calibre ballets, and musical prodigies are some of the major comedy kingpins. The Edinburgh Playhouse has been host to the likes of Amy Schumer, Louis CK, Jack Whitehall, Jimmy Carr, and Catherine Tate, to name just a few. This former cinema, which was built in the style of The Roxy cinema in New York, has been around since 1929 and makes for the most brilliant of comedy venues due to its sheer size and acoustics."
"EdinburghThe Edinburgh Playhouse has some great shows throughout the year including a great Panto. There are also childrens events in the school holidays and youth drama activities"
"Perhaps one of the most-adored venues of the Fringe, The Pleasance Courtyard can be considered the heart and soul of Edinburgh’s comedy scene. From internationally and critically acclaimed acts during the Festival, to the year round comedic wizards who cast their spell on unassuming audiences, this chilled university drinking hole is a portal for some smashing comedy acts. The Pleasance, Edinburgh, Scotland"
"Typically, The Traverse is thought of for its meaty plays and explorative theatre. Within such performances sit an array of expertly produced acts containing some of the best comedic relief in town. From satire and farce to slapstick and dark, sick, and twisted humour, this theatre is a fail-safe spot for getting your well-deserved laughing fix."
"Located on the Royal Mile a short distance from the castle, the John Knox House & Scottish Storytelling Centre attraction is a treat for anyone interested in Scotland's rich cultural heritage. It was built in 1470 and is said to be the one time home of the protestant reformer after which it's named. A highlight of a visit is exploring the exhibits and displays related to the Scottish Reformation, a pivotal moment in the country's history."
"The John Knox House dates back to 1470, making it one of the oldest buildings in Edinburgh, as well as the oldest on the Royal Mile. Today, it’s a beautifully maintained museum that showcases the house and those who lived here, with special attention paid to the Scottish Reformation. Although it’s not on every tourist’s trail, those who do their research will be well rewarded with a fascinating trip back through time."
"The Physicians' Gallery is a free public exhibition space which is part of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh. Our exhibitions are based on the wealth of historical medical material which the College has collected over the last 300 years. ‘Moonstruck: 500 years of mental health’ is our new free exhibition– opening on 14 June 2019 and running until Spring 2020"
"A majestic building in Edinburgh’s quiet west end, The Bonham Hotel is ideally placed for all the main attractions the city has to offer, and the historic, luxurious atmosphere or a genuine Edinburgh legend. A range of formal dining options give you a choice of cuisine, while you can enjoy afternoon tea in the traditional way in a club-style environment for a relaxed, enjoyable time. Rooms vary from the beautiful Townhouse to the opulent suites, all with period features and bespoke furniture."
"Situated in a peaceful, leafy crescent in Edinburgh’s well-heeled West End, The Bonham offers guests a gorgeously indulgent stay in spacious rooms and suites. These three former townhouses have recently been given a revamp, and, while the hotel has retained its period features, including wood panelling and huge bay windows, this place is anything but stuffy. Furnishings are upholstered in bright velvets, and the beds are deep and piled high with pillows and cushions."
"Located within The Rutland Hotel at Edinburgh’s West End and boasting enviable views of Edinburgh Castle, Kyloe is an award winning gourmet steak restaurant. Kyloe, an old Scots word for Highland beef cattle, highlights the strength and versatility of Scottish beef produce. The restaurant uses cuts from pedigree Aberdeen Angus – supplied by some of Scotland’s top farms and butchers – to bring customers the best possible steak experience."
"Situated in Edinburgh’s West End, Kyloe is Edinburgh’s first gourmet steak restaurant. Kyloe’s award-winning head chef John Rutter uses a selection of traditional cuts, along with some more unusual cuts chosen for their texture and flavour.
