Moored in the Lochrin Basin, within a short walk from Princes Street and Edinburgh Castle, The Four Sisters Boatel is a four star, luxury, self-catering houseboat. The accommodation includes free WiFi access and stylish bedrooms.

Lovely boatel, nice location, and it’s perfect for family with child. Special thanks to Udam who is very nice guy and kindly explained everything you need to know about the boat and the area around. Great experience!

    We had a Queen room which was quite compact but the space was well utilised providing outstanding comfort. The boat was o a great location; 10min walk to Royal Yacht Britannia and only a short bus ride into Edinburgh city centre.
