Accommodation FAQ

What type of Edinburgh stag accommodation is available?

We’ve been helping stag groups organise weekends to remember in Edinburgh since 2004. Not only do we have great connections with accommodation providers across the city, but we also understand what stag groups are generally looking for. We offer everything from budget hotels (cheap and cheerful but always comfortable and central) to more luxury hotels with additional facilities such as gyms and spas. 

We can find you a stag hotel with a bar for a few warm-up drinks before you go out, or a place moments from the train station if that’s what you need. As well-versed Edinburgh stag do organisers, we also offer stylish self-catering apartments, because we know that some groups want that extra bit of freedom and privacy. 

Where are your Edinburgh stag hotels located?

As a general rule, we aim to book your group into a hotel no more than 15-20 minutes’ walk, or a short taxi ride, from the areas where all the main stag do action happens. So we have plenty of central Edinburgh stag hotels near the Old Town for instance, in easy walking distance of the Royal Mile, and Grassmarket and Cowgate which are two of the top places to go in Edinburgh for stag dos.

We can also help with stag hotels convenient for Princes Street, the main shopping area, and hotels near Edinburgh Castle too. If you have a preference for where to stay on your Edinburgh stag do then let us know but general rule: the earlier you book, the more choice is available to you.

Is our hotel booking financially protected?

Yes. The Stag Company's ABTA membership provides you with total peace of mind when you book a package through us. 

Can we have breakfast at the hotel?

Of course! Many Edinburgh stag hotels will serve their group an excellent hot or cold breakfast each morning. Please be clear that you want a hotel that offers breakfast when booking. Alternatively, we can find you a hotel located close to the huge variety of welcoming cafés and pubs to be found in this fabulous city. 

What about Edinburgh stag hotels with car parking?

Some hotels have a limited number of car parking spaces available for their guests on a first-come, first-served basis - with a supplementary charge usually payable. There are plenty of secure public car parks in Edinburgh too, where you can leave your vehicle(s) with confidence for a reasonable rate, and these are usually not too far from the Edinburgh stag hotels that we use.

When should we book?

We always tell our groups that the earlier they get their deposits into us the better, as it means more choice when it comes to accommodation. But we also know that some stag groups are a bit more organised than others and some people take their time to commit. Most of the time, that’s not an issue, but if you do book very late in the day, you might (rarely) find yourselves staying a bit further out, or perhaps having to split the group into two hotels.

An additional complication crops up for stag weekends taking place during the Edinburgh Fringe, during the Six Nations tournament, or on Hogmanay. These are incredibly popular times to visit Edinburgh and as such, accommodation is in particularly high demand. So, if you’re planning an Edinburgh stag do in early spring, August or at New Year then you really need to be booking as early as possible. 

Can we stay for one night only?

Some Edinburgh stag hotels will accept groups for one night only, but your choices will be a bit more limited. And during peak season, such as over summer, most hotels impose a minimum stay requirements of two nights. Again, this is something best discussed with our Event Planners at the time of booking. 

Are Edinburgh stag hotels expensive?

Accommodation for stag groups in Edinburgh is quite pricey simply because this is one of the UK’s most desirable destinations. It’s never going to be cheap, however we make every effort to secure the best deals for our Edinburgh stag dos so that you have more money to spend on your activities nightlife and beer kitty! 

We have hotels to suit every budget, and you may find that our Edinburgh stag do packages, which include key elements such as accommodation, a few activities, dinner and club entry, offer better value for your group.

Do Edinburgh stag accommodations accept large groups?

We only work with hotels in Edinburgh that will accept stag groups, and they understand that groups come in all shapes and sizes. Depending on your group size, the room configurations you want, and how early you book, we may need to spend a little time finding just the right place, but that’s what we’re here for. Our aim is always to help you enjoy a stress-free Edinburgh stag that everyone remembers happily for years to come.

Can you help with stag do hotels during Edinburgh Fringe?

The Edinburgh Fringe Festival, held in August every year, is one of Europe’s biggest cultural events. As such, accommodation is in very high demand and you can expect to pay a premium. Many stag groups do choose to visit Edinburgh during the Fringe of course, because there is so much to do from comedy to live music, and an incredible, unique atmosphere.

If you want to organise a stag do during Edinburgh Fringe, you need to start organising it way in advance. We can’t help you with tickets to Fringe events, but we can sort out your stag accommodation and nightlife if you give us enough time - and as long as you're of the understanding that it will cost you more to stay in Edinburgh during this time.
