Book historic Royal Mile hotels

The Royal Mile, which runs above New Town on a hill, is Edinburgh's most famous thoroughfare. Located in Edinburgh's ancient Old Town, it runs from Edinburgh Castle to Holyrood Palace. If you stay in Royal Mile hotels, you’ll be in a place of concentration of all the important and historic landmarks in the city. If you're feeling energetic, take a one-hour stroll to Arthur's Seat's peak and enjoy the city's stunning views. If you prefer a slower pace, Calton Hill, which takes only a few minutes to reach the top, is another alternative. The architecture in this area is ancient and typical for the town - you’ll immediately feel you’re in Edinburgh, the city full of secret stories and memorable events.
