Pretty sure that whatever hotel firm has bought it will have done their homework with regards to competition and capacity in their market.

Believe it or not, Edinburgh actually does need more hotel rooms to satisfy demand. Tourism here has been on the increase (overall) for decades and is the 2nd most important sector for bringing cash into the city (behind the banking/financial sector). More hotels please.

I dont think it is to satisfy demand, I actually work for a major hotel in that area and work in the accounts department so know exactly how many rooms we have left to sell and what rooms are available in the city at times. It is a growing market but my point is we are all raising our rooms rates just to beat each other and the customer is the one who ends up losing out, however if they are daft enough to pay £240 room only in August then that is there choice. Yes we bring in a lot of cash but at the end of the day profit is not as important as customer service (don't let my GM read this or I might be sacked!)
