Venues: 8 with bookable meeting rooms

Room sizes: 2 to 50+ people

Hourly rates: from £20 to £63

The character of meeting spaces varies more than in most UK cities. You can book a Georgian townhouse boardroom on Charlotte Square, a modern conference room in the Exchange District, or a creative space in a converted Leith warehouse. That mix means you can match the room to the occasion, whether it is a formal client presentation or an informal team workshop.

If you are also considering other Scottish cities, meeting rooms in Glasgow has a comparable selection with pricing that starts slightly lower.

Choosing the Right Room

For formal client meetings or board sessions, the New Town venues on and around Charlotte Square provide a setting that matches the occasion. 5 South Charlotte Street has rooms with period features and a professional reception, five minutes from Princes Street.

For longer sessions like workshops or training days, look for rooms with natural light and space to rearrange seating. Hive Spaces in the city centre has larger rooms with a more flexible layout. If you want something more informal for a team away-day, the Leith venues tend to have a more relaxed atmosphere, though they are further from the main stations.
