As I climbed up out of Edinburgh's Waverly Train Station with one bag too many, I thought, "Let my hotel be close!" There in front of me were the words "Royal British Hotel"!!! It could not have been closer! I really liked the Princes' Street location, easy to pop out the door and go sightseeing, find a shop or restaurant. VERY easy to cross the street from the train station and be there already. One night- a Friday- there was blaring music from a nearby pub or disco, but I travel with earplugs (important tip, esp in "budget range" hotels!) and it wasn't a big deal. The very next night, there was no noise at all, so clearly it isn't a constant thing. I would stay here again in a flash. The price was great, the room clean, the desk staff friendly, and the bed comfortable. Also, if you arrive by plane, the "AirLink" bus that connects the airport to the train station also stops about a block away, on Waverly bridge. Verrry convenient!

The Falkirk Wheel is a marvel, both as an engineering masterpiece and a work of art. Roughly half an hour by train to any of the 3 Falkirk train stations. I did it to Camelon, walked along some of the best preserved parts of the Antonine Wall, then along the Union Canal, through the tunnel, arriving at the wheel from above. After riding the wheel, returned to Camelon along the Forth & Clyde canal.

Check out the stand up comedy club a few streets from princes street and is in a lot of the tourists brochures. Quite a laugh.

The Guildford is just round the corner. One of Edinburgh's great pubs and ideal for the real ale enthusiast.

Everything is expensive comparing to what we pay in the states. Treat the pound sign as dollar sign, otherwise you will be starving. Finding a near-by super market (Sainsburry is a couple of blocks away) to get your snacks, sandwiches, fruits and drinks there. Having a big lunch in an all-you-can-eat Italian buffet in the ARK building or trying some authentic Chinese "Dim sum" in Saigon Saigon (two blocks away).

The hotel it's self was beautiful with it's old world look. Yes there were flaws, but it just added to the atmosphier. My room was everything I expected. Clean and well kept. The service was one in a million. All the staff were ready to help in every way. This trip was my first over seas experiance and I was nervous about everything, but the hotel staff made me feel safe and right at home as if I were one of the family. Any questions I had, they were right there to help out. if I ever get a chance to go back to Scotland, I know where I'm going to stay!

room was filthy, couldn't touch anything, very badly needs to be revamped and cleaned. the only difference between this and a hostel was that you had your own room
