This flat is perfectly placed for access to anything in the city centre of Edinburgh. The castle (10 minutes), Holyrood Palace (15 minutes), Museum of Scotland (5 minutes), and so much more are right on your doorstep. The morning light in the family room is lovely. At times I didn't want to leave. Check in is via a lockbox, but it was easy (once we figured out the strange flat numbering scheme). This could be a great stay for a family (like us) or a group of friends.
