Hotels in Scotland, United Kingdom

Scotland, located in the northern third of the UK, is famous for its ancient castles and over 100 whisky distilleries. The climate is cool and rainy, with summer highs around 65°F (18°C) perfect for hiking the Highlands' Munro mountains like Ben Nevis, and winter lows near 32°F (0°C) ideal for exploring Edinburgh's medieval Old Town or skiing in the Cairngorms. The Highlands offer dramatic lochs and rugged trails, while cities like Glasgow buzz with live music-especially indie rock-and the Edinburgh Festival brings theater and comedy every August.
