Edinburgh was recently ranked 16th in the world. One place behind Yale and three places above Princeton. Literally Ivy League standard.

And how much would it cost an American to attend Edinburgh university?

I believe it’s about £20-30K a year for foreign students depending on the degree. Generally speaking an American would break even going to Edinburgh for an undergrad. For postgraduate Edinburgh (and the Russel group in general) is fairly cheap compared to the Ivy League.
