Located in the center of Edinburgh, just a few minutes’ walk from the Royal Mile and 650 yards of The Real Mary King's Close, Market Street forms part of Edinburgh’s historic skyline.

The staff were absolutely wonderful. After a cold rainy day I was feeling under the weather. My throat was scratchy and instead I slept in and skipped going out for dinner. Late in the evening everything was closed so I requested a bit of honey for a hot drink from the staff and they so kindly obliged. I'm very grateful. The hotel was in a great central location and the room was very clean as well. Great shower too.

    Very good venue - to see it all would take days.

    Very good venue - to see it all would take days. Best advice is to pick a section and really look at it - gives you an excuse for a return trip to Edinburgh to see another bit of the museum, along with all the other atractions.

    Do not miss this place!

    Do not miss this place! It is huge and we could have spent all day there. An incredibly beautiful building. It was quite overwhelming at first to know where to start as there isn’t a route as such to follow. It was very busy and crowded in some areas and empty in others. Impossible to sit down in the cafe as it was so busy but there are lots of seats fitted around if you need a break. We almost missed it but there is a roof terrace which is well worth a visit with super views of the city. And it’s free!!!! But there are donation stations for making your own choice of what to give. A duper super place!!

    The location was across the street from the National Museum of Scotland, easy walking distance to pubs and restaurants, Victoria Street, Grassmarket Square, and the upper end of the Royal Mile. Furnishings were comfortable and attractive. No noise issues. Very private. A large bank of windows allowed ample light and a view of an old church.
