“Last room” lines

On a median night in Edinburgh, 53% of the places with a price showed the site's “last room” line, up to 66% on 21 November 2026 (71 nights where the line was read).

The site's own line for one room left, not a count of rooms: it can be marketing.

Sold-out nights and prices

On the nights in Edinburgh when more places than usual showed no bookable room (over the median 4%), the places with a price asked a median $369, +111% against $175 on the other nights (16 and 55 nights measured).

The two figures moving together is all this shows; it does not say which moves which.

  • A place counts as showing no bookable room when the one-night search returned it without a price: sold out, closed, held to a minimum stay, or left without one by a short read.
  • Only the places we track in Edinburgh are counted, not every place in town; a share is of the places checked that night.
  • Prices in USD: asking prices seen in a one-night search, not prices paid.

Source: asking prices for one night, read from public search results on the scan date; not prices paid, and not a forecast. How we measure →
