Two-night stays at Brooks Hotel Edinburgh are now £129 -- that's less than £33 per person, per night -- and include daily breakfast, afternoon tea, a bottle of prosecco and late checkout.

The 19th-century property is in the West End, a 10-minute walk from Haymarket railway station and 20 minutes' walk from Edinburgh Castle, and has a cosy lounge with a log fire and an honesty bar stocked with whisky.
