With August occupancy rates reaching a record high of nearly 92% in 2009, the role Edinburgh's Festivals play in attracting visitors to the city is crucial to the health of its tourism and leisure sector.

Visitors coming to the Edinburgh International Festival make a particularly important contribution, spending an average of over seven nights in Edinburgh during the course of their stay.

Recognising our shared interests, our partner hotels work with us on a wide range of mutually beneficial sponsorships, joint promotions and hospitality initiatives.
