The Spotlight on Tigerlily

Stylish Boutique Stay in the Heart of Edinburgh

Modern, glamorous, and right in the heart of Edinburgh, Tigerlily is a boutique hotel that blends luxury with nightlife vibes. Located on George Street in the city’s buzzing New Town district, you're just a short stroll from Edinburgh’s top music venues, restaurants, and bars. With plush rooms, a chic cocktail bar, and direct access to an on-site nightclub, it's a favorite for those looking to keep the party going—or retreat in comfort.

Why Concert-goers love it

Just a 10-minute walk from Waverley Rail Station, Tigerlily is incredibly easy to access for travelers arriving by train. Music lovers appreciate the central location, surrounded by bars and live music spots. After a show, you won’t need to trek far—many venues are within walking distance, and the hotel’s own nightclub, Lulu, is right downstairs. The vibe is lively but the rooms remain impressively quiet thanks to solid soundproofing. Plus, the 3:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM check-out give you time to recover after a late night out.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends heading out for a night of music and drinks
  • Solo travelers looking for both safety and style
  • Couples planning a romantic concert weekend
  • Fans seeking a quieter space post-event—rooms are cozy and well-insulated
  • Budget-conscious fans who want luxury touches without five-star prices

Food and Drink Options

Tigerlily’s on-site cocktail bar and restaurant serves up locally sourced meals in a glamorous setting. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the bar stays open late and the area is packed with walkable dining options. After a gig, you can slip downstairs for a nightcap or grab a bite nearby. Breakfast is available, perfect for recharging the morning after.

Nightlife Options

Guests at Tigerlily get free entry to Lulu, the stylish nightclub just below the hotel. It’s a hotspot for DJs and dancing, but if you’re after something more relaxed, the cocktail bar above offers a more laid-back vibe. George Street is also home to numerous bars, lounges, and live music venues, all within walking distance.

What People Say

Reviews often highlight the beautiful room design, the helpful and friendly staff, and the unbeatable location. Many guests love the lively atmosphere and say it’s perfect for a celebratory weekend in the city. The cocktails and food get high marks too.

Areas for Improvement

If you’re looking for a quiet, early night, the vibrant energy of the bar and club might not be your scene. Some guests noted that weekend stays come with a bit more background noise, and parking can be tricky since the hotel doesn’t have its own lot.

The Bottom Line

With its unbeatable location, stylish rooms, and nightlife right downstairs, Tigerlily is a top pick for concert-goers who want to stay in the center of the action without sacrificing comfort.

I’d tell people traveling to...

Liked: Different in a good way- very colorful, modern, artsy vibe. The location was excellent. The staff very attentive - especially as the key system was down and they had to escort us to our rooms each time for one day of our stay - they were quick, smiling and apologetic for something out of their control. The free drink for our trouble was a nice touch.
Disliked: Nothing

Liked: Great location, very close to Princes Street and to numerous buses (including a bus from/to the airport and hop on-hop off busses), restaurants, shops. You could also walk almost everywhere. The room was very spacious and clean and the bathroom as well! The shower was really spacious and hot water would come out almost immediately and loved it! The bed and pillows very comfortable! There was a complementary bottle of water and shortbreads each day. There was a coffee machine in the room and nespresso capsules, so you could make your own coffee at any time (tea was also available). The staff was polite.
Disliked: The quality of the breakfast was excellent and really enjoyed it! However, there was no breakfast buffet and you had to order dishes from a menu. This was not clear to me when I made a reservation. And breakfast was only starting at 8:00. I believe it would be better to have also a small buffer where you could have a fruit or a croissant. In addition, one day we waited for about 25 min to have our hot breakfast served and on that day we were on a tight time schedule. Maybe we should have made it clear that we would like a faster service. If you not in a hurry, then you can really enjoy relaxed breakfast in a very nice environment.Another thing is that on Friday and Saturday night, you can still hear a bit of the music from the club, but it did not really bothering me. I mention it though, because it might be an important point for people that might need total silence to sleep.
