Best Luxury Hotels in Edinburgh – Fingal Tops World’s Best Hotels List

Edinburgh’s Fingal has sailed to the top of the world’s best luxury hotels list in the TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice awards 2024.

Permanently berthed in the Port of Leith, Scotland’s only luxury floating hotel has been singled out by reviewers on the world’s largest travel guidance platform as one of the highest rated hotels on the planet and ‘Best of the Best’ in the UK.

The five-star hotel has been named among best Small and Boutique hotels in the world by TripAdvisor reviewers, taking first and second place in the UK and Europe lists, respectively.

The Travellers’ Choice Awards ‘Best of the Best’ title celebrates the highest level of excellence in travel. It is awarded to those who receive a high volume of above-and-beyond reviews and opinions from the TripAdvisor community over a 12-month period. Out of 8 million listings, fewer than 1 per cent achieve this milestone.

Opened in 2019, the former Northern Lighthouse Board (NLB) tender was developed and is managed by the award-winning team at The Royal Yacht Britannia. Fingal is now a world-class foodie destination with all the glamour and style of a superyacht, but with an air of old-world Art Deco luxury ocean liner elegance. 

Fingal is also ‘AA Hotel of the Year Scotland 2023-24’, as awarded by the internationally recognised Automobile Association (AA).

Director of Hospitality, Franck Bruyère said: 

“We’re committed to offering a world-class visitor experience to all our UK and international guests, so it’s a great honour to have been recognised by them as one of the world’s best hotels and the UK’s ‘Best of the Best’ in the TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice awards 2024.

“This latest accolade is yet further evidence of the dedication and professionalism of our entire crew, who work tirelessly to ensure everything is shipshape onboard Scotland’s only five-star luxury floating hotel.”

Analysing 12-months of review data for over 1.6 million hotels listed on TripAdvisor, winners of the Travellers’ Choice awards span nine categories from top hotels, to best all-inclusive, B&Bs, luxury, family-friendly and small and boutique. 

Dan Mitchell, Vice President & General Manager Hotels, TripAdvisor, said: 

“Our Best of the Best Hotels are marvels, acclaimed by thousands of travellers for their remarkable service, stunning design, and wealth of amenities that redefine what it means to have an exceptional hotel experience. 

“According to our Tripadvisor reviewers, each of the world’s best hotels caters to the traveller looking for accessible luxury and unique, tailored experiences.”

Open to non-residents for afternoon tea, dinner and cocktails, Fingal’s Lighthouse Restaurant & Bar offers a choice of self-contained private dining booths for small pre-booked groups. 

Fingal’s 22 luxury cabins are each named after Stevenson lighthouses, inspired by Fingal’s rich maritime heritage. The ship is now the ultimate in luxury accommodation and dining with a nautical twist.

Fingal’s double-height ballroom and bridge provide dedicated dining spaces for private events, corporate celebrations and weddings.

Fingal is located opposite the Port of Leith tram stop, which offers a direct and quick transport link between Leith and Edinburgh city centre.

Public Health Crisis Roundtable Team

Scotland is Facing a Public Health Crisis

Meet the Campaigners Hoping to Create a Safer Future

In recent years, there has been a massive increase in non-healthcare professionals offering medical treatments, often using counterfeit medicines and operating from unlicensed premises.

In addition, two new threats have emerged as a result of new English regulation creating a “border hopping” phenomenon. Firstly, non-healthcare providers from England are travelling to Scotland to take advantage of the void in regulation. And secondly, under 18s in England, where it is now illegal to have a procedure, are travelling to Scotland where it is still legal. The consequences of this public health crisis will be catastrophic if action is not taken immediately.

To that end, representatives from the Scottish Medical Aesthetics Safety Group (SMASG), British College of Aesthetic Medicine (BCAM), and British Association of Cosmetic Nurses (BACN) met with a cross-party group of MSPs at the Scottish Parliament on Thursday 13th June to outline their concerns and call for change. The meeting was a positive and proactive one, with those present expressing their agreement that urgent action is absolutely necessary.

Campaigners at the roundtable event

Here’s the list of campaigners pictured above from left to right.

  • Frances Turner Triall SMASG / BACN
  • Susie McMahon SMASG / BACN
  • Linda Strachan SMASG / BACN
  • Hamish Dobbie SMASG
  • Jacqui Cooney SMASG / BACN
  • Jackie Partridge SMASG / BACN
  • John Elder SMASG / BCAM

Jenni Minto (SNP) Minister for Public Health and Women’s Health agreed that action was urgently required and that a decade had been lost since the government created the Scottish Cosmetic Intervention Expert Group to advise on regulation. Stuart McMillan MSP (SNP) expressed his concern that the lack of regulation was allowing criminal gangs to exploit the situation by selling unregulated and unsafe products that endangered the public. Miles Briggs MSP (Con) voiced his worries that the lack of regulation would enable another blood borne disease scandal created by non-healthcare providers using unhygienic premises and sharing treatment consumables.

He stated, “The lack of regulation is deeply troubling and makes it easy for people to procure unsafe products from unlicensed sources and could be set to get worse in Scotland if it doesn’t follow the example of England, which is moving to correct some of these issues.”

Foysol Choudhury MSP (Lab) asked if there were accurate statistics showing the scale of the problem and was informed there were not, since non-healthcare professionals are not currently regulated and therefore this information was not held by Scottish or UK Governments.

Jenni Minto explained that codes to track NHS treatments for complications from such procedures did not exist – so statistics were unavailable, and the establishment of such codes was not a devolved matter. However, she agreed to engage with her UK counterparts after the general election to resolve the matter. Finally, Katy Clark MSP (Lab) expressed her concern that further consultations and delays would result in regrettable public harm and that interim measures were urgently needed now.

Campaigners left the round-table event feeling hopeful, as Jenni Minto agreed to convene a cross-party group in September, after the Parliamentary recess, to fast track an effective solution. Hamish Dobbie, organiser of the roundtable event said, “Scotland needs action now, even if that requires interim measures. I was delighted with Ms Minto’s suggestion for a cross-party group to get consensus and momentum behind new regulation. A quick win would be to bring Scottish Law into alignment with the rest of the UK and make it illegal to provide and target under 18s in aesthetic procedures.”

Campaigners are adamant that to avoid a major public health crisis, a comprehensive approach is required – including stricter regulations, improved public education, and enhanced enforcement of existing laws. Both the UK and the Scottish Governments have had over a decade to formulate a strategy to combat the crisis which was identified in the Keogh Report published in 2013. Time is running out before unnecessary and wholly preventable loss of life occurs.

Moteh Parrott Edinburgh Singer

Local Indie Folk-rock Singer Moteh Parrott to Release Uplifting Debut Album Inspired by Loss and Love

Out Friday 6 September 2024 | Self-released

Stream Album / Download Audio Files / Download Images / Download Album Artwork

The Stones are Merely Sleeping is the innovative genre-blurring debut album from alternative singer-songwriter Moteh Parrott set for release on Friday 6 September.

Combining a signature indie folk-rock sound with elements of Celtic music, Moteh Parrott’s style has been described as “a Highland wilderness with all the sweeping colour and spirit which that encompasses”.

Shortlisted for BBC Radio Scotland’s Singer-Songwriter of the Year Award in 2019, Edinburgh-based Parrott brings together reflective, uplifting lyrics with open-tuned electric guitar and cello in this 10-track debut which has been years in the making.

The Stones are Merely Sleeping can be likened to concept albums – alongside upbeat anthemic songs, the tracklist includes interludes and poetry which explore overarching themes of loss, relationships and wider spiritual questions.

Influenced by a range of artists including Frightened Rabbit, Elbow, Laura Marling and Bon Iver, Moteh Parrott’s lyrics also take inspiration from nature and social and environmental justice and his early family life.

Born in Oku, Cameroon to parents working in rainforest conservation, Parrott writes about world events such as war and climate change, as well as tapping into universal human experiences of love and mental health.

With some of the music written as early as 2014, the album has been a decade in the making. While the recording took place over a few weeks, the album faced delays as a result of the pandemic and an unfortunate wrist injury and surgery earlier this year, which set back some of Parrott’s plans.

Moteh Parrott said: “I have struggled with mental health issues for a long time, but I’ve always been determined to use creativity to work through life’s challenges with light and optimism. Losing my brother in 2009 in tragic circumstances formed my main inspiration for pursuing music. Through songwriting I’ve been able to process my experiences in a positive way, process this grief and try to emerge on the other side with feelings of hope, peace and determination.

“This has helped me personally, but as a songwriter, the cycle of creativity isn’t complete until the music has found listeners who connect with it. The songs on the album come from a very genuine place, so I hope they will resonate with people and help them in their own healing. It’s been a longer and more complicated road than I had initially planned to release this body of work, but it feels fantastic to reach this point.”

Accompanying Moteh Parrott (vocals and guitars) on the album are Kathleen Rollins-McKie (cello), Marc Rollins-McKie (drums), Blair Young (bass), Nicky Murray (spoken word), Andy Ruddy (keys, rhodes and synth), Ryan Young (fiddle), and Melody McIndoe (percussion) with backing vocals from Rachel Sermanni, Sarah Irvine, Andy Ruddy and Hannah Charles and Edinburgh’s Castle Chorus choir. The record was recorded at Chem19 Studios in Hamilton and produced by Paul Savage (Mogwai, Arab Strap, King Creosote).

The album’s title comes from a poem Parrott wrote while kayaking on Loch Mhor in the Highlands which he included in the track Seven Generations. Written on a clear, sunny morning one New Year’s Day with the hills, trees and sky perfectly inverted in the water’s reflection, Parrott found inspiration to express an overwhelming feeling of connectedness. With this idea present throughout his music, it was the natural title to encompass and unify the tracklist for the album.

With two singles already released – Moth to the Flame and Seven Generations – the latest single Undertow, named after the strong current which moves below the surface water, will be out on Friday 23 August.

The Stones are Merely Sleeping will be available to download, stream, and purchase on CD and vinyl from Friday 6 September. 

Physical copies and merchandise can be ordered from Moteh’s Kickstarter and digital copies can be pre-ordered now. Visit https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/motehparrott/the-stones-are-merely-sleeping.

Pleasance at EICC Edinburgh

EdFringeFood & Drink

EICC teams up with Johnnie Walker and Cold Town Beer as Fringe Foodie Destination

One of the Fringe’s most luxurious venues is back for 2024 with a bigger and better line-up than ever before.

The Edinburgh International Conference Centre (EICC), which transforms into Pleasance at EICC during the Fringe, is partnering with an array of high-profile local businesses to create a dining and drinking hub in the heart of the city during August, to complement its stellar line up of world-renowned artists.

In collaboration with catering partner, Leith’s, the event catering division of Compass Scotland, the EICC will have a street food style offering, serving festival favourites, tacos, toasties and waffles. Toasties will be on offer throughout the day, with tacos and waffles available from 4pm.

The food is in line with Compass Scotland and the EICC’s commitment to sustainability, showcasing Scottish produce and working with local suppliers. Toastie options include venison, haggis and masses of local cheese, while taco flavours include fish and plant-based, banana blossom. Waffles will be available, with sweet and savoury toppings, including Cranachan, Biscoffee and Blue cheese and fig.

Enhancing the food options, the EICC is working with much-loved local partners, including Johnnie Walker, Cold Town Beer and The Little Parlour from South Queensferry; as well as Aperol and London Essence from further afield. The partners are working collaboratively, and the chef at the EICC has worked with Cold Town Beer and Johnnie Walker to create bespoke dips for the toasties, while London Essence has formulated a range of perfect serves with Johnnie Walker. 

Johnnie Walker will bring a modern whisky vibe to the venue. A ‘grabber’ games machine offering merchandise and discount prizes and a Skee ball machine will be providing entertainment. Visitors will also be able to enjoy Johnnie Walker’s ‘perfect serves’, Johnnie & Ginger (Johnnie Walker Black, London Essence Ginger Ale), Pina Colada Highball (Johnnie Walker Black Label, London Essence Roasted Pineapple Soda, Coconut Water & Lime) Brown Derby Highball (Johnnie Walker Black, London Essence Grapefruit Soda, Honey Syrup). Meanwhile, Aperol is bringing the outside inside, with a Spritz Garden.

Cold Town Beer will be providing freshly brewed local beer, aligning perfectly with the EICC’s sustainable approach to hospitality, as the beer is brewed just half a mile away at the Grassmarket venue – keeping travel extremely low and championing local supply. Cold Town Beer is also working with the EICC creating ‘reverse stencilling’ to promote the partnership, getting the details out to audiences through the use of biodegradable paint on surrounding paving slabs.

In addition, Cold Town Beer will be hosting ‘meet the brewer’ sessions on Thursday 1st, 8th, 15th and 22nd August from 7:45pm to 8:45pm and Sunday 4th and 11th August from 5:30pm to 6:30pm, allowing visitors to sample the beers and ask some burning questions.

With a new outdoor seating area, the EICC can cater for any weather, offering a sunny corner of the Capital or maintaining the Festival atmosphere in a safe haven from the rain.

The line up of shows at the venue for 2024 includes the return of sell-out shows from 2023, Trainspotting Live and Sh!t-faced Shakespeare, along with Italian illusionist, Arturo Brachetti with SOLO; a new show from Miriam Margolyes; and Buffy Revamped, among others.

The first shows for the Fringe at the EICC begin on 31 July and run until 25 August.

Claire McHardy, Leith’s General Manager at EICC said: “We’ve got a fantastic food and drink offering this year – along with a full range of incredible shows. Our chefs have been working hard over the last few months to create mouth-watering items for the street food stalls. The tacos are always a favourite; the waffles are impossible to resist, and we’ve perfected the toasties to ensure an unbeatable cheese pull!

“We’re bringing all the fun and atmosphere of George Square into our world-class venue – so whatever the weather, we’ve got audiences covered and entertained. We can’t wait to get started!”

David Hay, Managing Director of Compass Scotland added: “August in Edinburgh is like nowhere else – it’s little wonder people flock from all over the world to experience it. We’re proud that the EICC is playing a central role in entertaining the visitors to the Capital and working with such amazing partners, with everyone pulling out the stops to make the EICC a destination for all to enjoy.”

Marshall Dallas, Chief Executive at EICC, said: “We’re really excited about what’s on here at Pleasance at EICC this August – from the diverse line-up of artists to our exceptional street food and bar offering. Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do at the EICC, so we’re thrilled to be partnering with a collection of well-loved local food and drink brands to create something really special for visitors and locals as they enjoy this year’s Fringe.” 

Under the brand Leith’s, Compass has been catering partner at EICC since it opened in 1995. Working collaboratively, they continuing to enhance the food offering to focus on sustainable, local Scottish produce in line with the company’s journey to net zero.
