After looking at a map of Edinburgh we decided that Waverly Station is not that far from the hotel and we should easily be able to walk it with our luggage. The only problem was the map didn’t specify the topography; it’s quite a steep walk up to the Royal Mile from the station. I would definitely recommend getting a... more

Perfect location for a business visit to the Scottish Parliament and a block away from the Royal Mile. Its a 10 minute walk to the Castle assuming you can resist the pubs that line the route.
