If you are looking to be in the heart of the action right next to Edinburgh Castle, then this is the flat! We luckily still had views of the castle as they were already putting up the bandstands for the military tattoo which takes place in August.
Easy to get to royal mile and walkable to lots of old and new town locations. Kids loved having own room and own beds. Cool history associated with the building. But be warned, there are 4 flights of spiral stairs up/down which our kids loved but is definitely a workout.
Overall, a great stay!
