So many amazing things to see on the Royal Mile. I absolutely loved it. We found a nice restuarant on the Royal Mile and had some nice ales and lunch. Dave (my son in law) and I had the haggis. Yummy.

Lovely architecture and quite scenic. Unfortunately packed with tourist traps, so buyer beware. There are some true gems, local merchants and family-owned businesses that are worth seeking out for the best bargains.

We did a Hop-on, Hop-off bus in Edinburgh and stopped at the Grassmarket - very interesting and a must see is the Greyfriars Kirk and Greyfriars Bobby's grave. Toured the Holyrood Castle - very interesting and a lovely gift shop.

Lots of fun things to see and do and just a nice place to hang out. Loads of lunch spots; we would recommend the Whiskey and Haggis arcade and suggest try the Robert Burns Famous Haggis with whiskey sauce; one portion is enough for 2 people.

The real St Mary's Close.
The real St Mary's Close. Amazing "Museum" which is actually a series of uncovered streets that were originally built beneath the current road, below the town. When the plague hit, the poor were entombed there. The history of it was mind-boggling. A must to see. The Mile itself just great to walk, stop, sip a drink or two. The Dome restaurant and Bars wonderous at Xmas. Fantastic array of external and internal Christmas lights, trees.

Loved walking up and down the Royal Mile, it was the Fringe Festival while were there, it was a hive of activity and street performers were dotted along the mile. There are also some interesting shops selling souvenirs, if that's your thing

The hotel is located at the end of the Royal Mile, so it was convenient to see the sites around Old Edinburgh. It was a 17 minute walk from the bus station and about 10 minutes from the train station. The room was spacious and had everything we needed. The staff was very helpful and booked taxis as we requested. The breakfast was buffet style, and they had plenty of food to get your day started.
Very central location, train station is close by, bus station to/from the airport is also only a few minutes away. quite happy with the room and the facilitites. Great place to start exploring Edinburgh for the first time. Giles Cathedral and the famous walking street Royal Mile only a short walk away. The hostel had some activities and recommendations almost each day, like free salsa classes, pizza night etc. Free storage lockers were great to have, I appreciated that.
Fabulous apartment, it was clean and spacious and very comfortable. The location was excellent , the apartment is located opposite Holyrood park a short walk through the park brings you out at Holyrood palace and onto the Royal mile. Would definitely return.
The location was perfect, only a couple of blocks from the centre of the Royal Mile. There are restaurants, a pie shop and grocery store within 1/2 block of the apartment. And a wonderful bookstore across the street.
The apartment was really clean - impressive. And very spacious.
The property manager, Fan was very responsive to our questions.
Very conveniently located just off on the Royal Mile / old town and only a short walk to the newer town. Our room was spacious, comfortable and clean. The hotel is large so just be prepared it could be a little walk to the room. Our room was not ready until after check in time (they were fully booked) but the staff were lovely and helpful, they collected, sorted our bags and took them to the room when it was ready and we just wondered the town.
We enjoyed the location beings o close to the Edinburgh Castle, the Royal mile, and exploring the city. The hotel staff were welcoming and helpful throughout our stay, allowing us to leave our bags while we made last minute exploring.
Location is the best ever in the central of the downtown, only 2 mins walk from the Royal Mile and the Castle. The room was really clean and comfortable, the staff was helpful. Highly recommend this hotel.
The location was really good for Edinburgh Castle, The Royal Mile, City Tour buses which stopped outside the hotel and bars & restaurants just over the road.
Location on Royal Mile provides easy access to castle, train station, shops, and all site seeing in Edinburgh. Room was to the side of the hotel looking over a side road, so any noise from Royal Mile was minimal. There is option to request pillows of various firmness, card on bed explains the pillow options in detail.

Get away from the Royal Mile where tourists come to snap endless photos of token bag pipers wearing kilts. Walk to the Stockbridge neighborhood, full of beautiful flats, interesting shops and cafes. Walk to the old side of the city underneath the castle for pub crawling.

Walking from the Castle down the Royal Mile to Holyrood...
Walking from the Castle down the Royal Mile to Holyrood House with the new Parliament en route takes some beating in terms not just of historical content but also of ease of travel-it's a straight downhill walk. On the way talk to people-some of the locals actually know a lot about their City and take a pride in it.

St. Giles on the Royal Mile is several hundreds of years old. My family attended a pipe organ recital there one evening. What an awesome and thunderous sound that huge organ made, but could produce the most delicate melodies as well. Highly recommend taking some time to study the beautiful architecture as well as the gorgeous stained glass windows and the history surrounding this or any cathedral, for there is always a history to be known.

As a city Edinburgh is steeped in history, all the areas off the Royal Mile has a tale to tell. The city offers a number of good tours both by bus and feet for getting to know the past and how people lived. The city also offers an insight to famous personalities of the past such as Sir Walter Scott, Robert Louis Stevenson and Rabbie Burns
