"We had a brutal walk to get the hotel from the train station. That had more to with too much souvenir shopping but it did make getting there unpleasant. The hotel was a great place to stay. Nice sized rooms right in the royal mile. I will definitely stay here again. But next time I will hire a taxi to get there."
