I can't believe what an amazing building this is. We stayed in the rooms with the lofts, and they are gorgeous and very well appointed. Each room had a turntable a guitar and lots of nice little amenities (I used the hot water bottle to sooth an aching shoulder). The guitar has a tuner on it too. The mini bar area is very well stocked, and it is quite reasonable priced. They want you to have a beer, and they're not going to make you pay £10 per beer like some hotels. We also got a keg in the room for a little bit more money, and there are of course the famous shower beers. The decor is really cool too--all based around their funky art they use for the beers. Even if you are not a big beer person, it is a great place to stay, The restaurant downstairs has delicious food with really nice portion sizes, and the breakfasts were included with our room--full breakfasts right off the menu, not a sad hotel breakfast. I especially recommend the vegan breakfast. We also got a free welcome beer and a free beer for not requesting towel laundry, although housekeeping did come every day to make the beds. They are well staffed and have lots of chill, friendly people there to help you out. Even if you're not staying at the hotel, go there to hang out in the bar or for brunch. They also have a nice terrace and patio to sit outside. The hotel is just a 10 minute walk from the last stop on the 100 Airport Bus, and it's really close to all the downtown sights. We were able to walk to just about every attraction from there. Finally, I have to say that it's a nice and quiet hotel too. It's on a quiet street, and the walls are very thick, plus there's two doors between you and the hall. I slept great there. Definitely a nice place to stay for anyone wanting to explore Edinburgh.

Palace of Holyrood House

Still the official Scottish residence of the British monarch, Holyroodhouse has been a seat of royalty since the 16th century. Today, you can visit the former chambers of Mary, Queen of Scots and hear the tale of her doomed reign. And if you look out her oratory window, you can see the well-preserved ruins of the 12th-century Holyrood Abbey.

    This palace at the end of the Royal Mile was the ancestral home of Mary Queen of Scots and many more of her Stuart dynasty. The palace is well worth a visit with it's own audio guide so you can travel at your own pace. Some pictures are allowed; some places it isn't. If you keep your ticket, it is good for return visits for up to a year from the date of ticket purchase.

    The palace is truly beautiful.

    The palace is truly beautiful. The audio tour offers the option to choose your preferred language, which I used to guide myself through the castle using the audio device and the accompanying map. The map is both informative and user-friendly. You can take as much time as you like exploring the rooms, the façade, the interior, and the exterior. The staff are unobtrusive during the tour, yet very attentive and helpful. For a memorable keepsake, there’s an opportunity to shop at the palace store, visit the gallery, or treat yourself at the café.

    Much better than Edinburgh Castle for someone wanting to feel like you're stepping back in time. Beautifully maintained! Also, we didn't reserve tickets. I recommend not, we walked up.. got in line, got tickets, and were inside in half the time it took for the pre-reserved ticket holders to get through their line.
