Our accommodation at Fiona's was excellent. Great views of Edinburgh Castle from bedroom window. Private lounge a lovely place to relax and sometimes you have the opportunity to see wonderful fireworks. Approximately a leisurely 30 minute walk to city or catch bus close to Fiona's which takes approx 10 minutes to the city. Just be aware of the 3 flights of stairs with heavy suitcases otherwise highly recommend Fiona's as a wonderful place to stay.
