Edinburgh Marriott Hotel Holyrood
Premier Inn Edinburgh Cc Royal Mile
Great location near the Waverley train station, Princes Street, and Royal Mile. Property is quiet, very clean. Staff is wonderful and very hard-working- breakfast ( and dinner) was great- a good start in the morning and a welcome evening meal if you are tired after walking all over!
