The property has a lot of Scottish military history that you can peruse on the various levels of the establishment. The staff were amazingly helpful giving us directions to the various tours and attractions in and around Edinburgh. They had good maps of the area and arranged taxis for us when we needed them. All and all a wonderful place to stay.
