Hip stay in the Old Town

There are few more iconic locations for an Edinburgh stay than the historic Royal Mile, which sits at the heart of the Old Town in a World Heritage Site. Connecting the royal residences of Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood House, the cobbled streets of the Mile are home to ancient attractions, cosy eateries, and boutiquey shops, while the sweeping city views from here are worthy of a mention, too. 

Occupying an elegant building that was once a bank, the four-star Inn On The Mile is only a five-minute walk from Edinburgh Waverley train station and the many shops and sights of Princes Street. The hotel’s trendy rooms feature WiFi, a flat-screen TV, a minibar, and hot drinks facilities, while your private bathroom’s rainfall shower is a reviving treat at the start or end of a long day.

After exploring iconic attractions like Edinburgh Castle, the National Museum of Scotland, and the City Art Centre – which are all a few minutes’ walk away – you can return to the hotel’s pub, which serves delicious local food and drink, and also broadcasts live sports and hosts regular live music nights. The hotel’s Full Scottish breakfast is the perfect way to blow away the cobwebs the next morning, and there are also food options for little ones, too. 

With only nine rooms on site, be sure to book your stay while there’s still room at the Inn.
