I'v been up there thrice, first time i stayed in this nice place by haymarket called Palmerston Hotel that is just by tht church called St.andrews i guess but not pretty sure..The place is quite decent and is a B&B lodging with twin room as well as dormitory.
The second time i stayed over in budget packers and trust me you wouldnt want to go there, the place is just pathetic and itz more like a red-light district than a decent lodgin i mean with all the porno on the walls and the dungeon kinda appearance of the whole place in all. the third time we played it safe and took out tents with us coz we went on a camping trip to north of scotland then....So i guess you can try out palmerston place which is quite near to haymarket...good access to the bus station as well as nearby to princes street,quite a walking distance really...

The Apex European is near Haymarket and is cheap, or try the Premier Travel Lodge near Grassmarket. All the big budget hotel groups have hotels in central Edinburgh - Ibis, Holiday Inn Express, Travellodge etc.

Try The Auld Reekie Guest House on Mayfield Gardens cheap clean and friendly. To be honest I stay in Edinburgh and the Guest Houses are much nicer than others around the UK. Plenty of them to choose from in the Newington district where you have off road parking which is free, a great selection of shops (Cameron Toll shopping centre close-by and the city centre 5 mins away on public transport), lots of pubs and some teriffic takeaways and restaurants. Hell of a lot better than the many faceless hotels who are understaffed and most whom are employed are Eastern European and struggle to understand basic requests. Hope this helps.

best to look on the net for deals as they can be cheaper than the ones the hotel will sell you direct.
i stayed at the carlton meridian (near edinburgh waverly station) when i went to the fringe festival this year. loved the city and people there but the hotel was not all that (rooms with 'character' just means old and dusty). staff were sweet though

I stayed at the Holiday Inn. It was pretty reasonably priced. I believe it had a breakfast included. It was close to the water, if that helps. I have no idea if it's near the areas you are looking at, though. I was only there 2 nights.

Try the guys at premier travel inn, their a bit like the Hotel equivalent of McDonald's but at least they are reasonably cheap & clean.

The Mount Royal, Princes Street is very good but it is central Edinburgh and may not suit your wedding destination. I can recommend it though, stayed there once and it was very good.

I haven't been to Edinburgh before
but my best advice would be to
go on www.yell.co.uk
and look for hotels and see if they have websites that show you pictures and prices of the place
