Edinburgh Zoo is set over 82 acres of sloping parkland and is home to more than 1,000 rare and endangered animals. It’s owned by the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland and first opened its doors in 1919.

They passionately focus on safeguarding species from extinction and have more than 800,000 visitors through the doors each year. Prepare to be wowed by majestic tigers, bowled over by cuddly koalas and entranced by the Asiatic Lions. There are a multitude of exciting experiences for visitors including the opportunity to be a zookeeper for a day, where you can get up close with all the animals… if you dare.

Scared of spiders? The zoo offers a special “fight your phobia” experience where you can overcome your fear of our eight-legged friends.

Benefits of a serviced apartment

Flexibility
Our serviced apartments allow you to experience your holiday the way you like it. With a fully fitted kitchen, you have the freedom to dine at home or eat out, as the mood strikes you.
A 24-hour reception desk means there will always be someone there to answer your questions, help you with your bags or give you directions, while paying per apartment, rather than per person, means that you can always decide to have a friend or family member join you at any stage throughout your stay.

Self-catering
One of the biggest barriers to sticking to your holiday budget will be all of the money spent on eating out – and while discovering new restaurants is often one of the best parts of any trip, one of the biggest advantages to staying in Staycity’s serviced apartment hotels is picking and choosing when and if you eat out.
With our fully equipped kitchens, complete with fridge/freezer, hobs, microwave and dishwasher, you can cook breakfast, lunch or dinner at home – venturing out to eat only when the mood strikes you.

Multiple rooms
Ever travel with a group of people, or with your family, and feel a little disappointed at being separated by, at a very minimum, two doors and a corridor? Whether it’s a fun group sleepover you’re after, or just the security of knowing that your children are in the same apartment, with no locked doors between you, there is definite peace of mind to be had from a serviced apartment with multiple rooms.
Add to that the fact that you have the extra space and comfort that comes with having more than one room at your disposal. Relax in the living room, cook breakfast in the kitchen – or just get away from your travelling companion(s) when things are getting a little too intense.

Fitted kitchens
Staycity’s serviced apartments, with access fully fitted kitchens, make it easy to prepare your favourite breakfast, fix yourself a drink or simply chop up some fresh fruit at snack time. Fancy a cup of tea? Coffee? A cold glass of water? Staycity apartment hotel living means you don’t need to leave the comfort of your apartment to get what you need.
For those travelling with children, it’s even better – sterilise bottles at home, prepare their favourite breakfast foods while you get ready to go out for the day or just have a family dinner at home, popping everything into the dishwasher when you’re done for no-fuss dining.
