Edinburgh International Science Festival 2011 -Accommodation

The Edinburgh International Science Festival is coming back to Edinburgh again in 2011 for the 22^nd time. The festival will take place from Saturday 9^th April 2011 to Friday 22^nd April 2011. As usual the festival will feature hundreds of talks, tours and exhibitions for children, families and adults in various locations around the city.

If you’ve not heard of it before, the Edinburgh International Science Festival is one of the largest science festivals in Europe with the last event in 2010 containing over 200 different science events across Edinburgh.  Not only is it a great opportunity for the public to celebrate some of the inventions and innovations of the world of technology and science, but also gives scientists a chance to share their work and passion for science with the public. This is done through hundreds of different events including shows, workshops, exhibitions and lectures. Have a look at the festival website to check out the events for this year and latest news, www.sciencefestival.co.uk.

Last year’s Edinburgh International Science Festival was a great success and the festival won the title of ‘Best Cultural Event’ at the Scottish Event Awards in September. So expect more of the same in 2011 with a new programme of events ready to amaze and excite the public’s imagination.

As you can imagine the Edinburgh International Science Festival is a hugely popular event with children and families, and many parents will be looking to plan a weekend or week up in Edinburgh. As far as accommodation is concerned Edinburgh has a wide variety of options but there is one in particular that is ideal for families and that is serviced apartments. With a separate bedroom and twice the space of a normal hotel room, serviced apartments provide a much welcome change for parents away with their families. After spending a whole day out and about with the kids, having the comfort of your own bedroom and knowing that with the self-catering facilities you can cater for even the fussiest of children, a serviced apartment is the logical choice for family accommodation in Edinburgh.
