King James Hotel

The Thistle King James Hotel in Edinburgh is ideally located in close proximity to world-famous Princes Street, and just a short walk from both Edinburgh Castle and the historic Royal Mile. The King James is a suitably royal name for an Edinburgh hotel located near the Royal Mile, which is dominated by Edinburgh Castle at one end, and the palace of Holyroodhouse - still the Queen’s official residence in the Scottish capital - at the other. Edinburgh is a cultural, sporting and shopping delight, and The King James Hotel is the ideal base from which to explore museums and art galleries, theatres and concert rooms, traditional pubs and sophisticated restaurants. There are 143 guestrooms at the King James Hotel, all boasting speedy and free Wifi internet access.

The City of Edinburgh On The Map: Edinburgh is located in the southeast of Scotland. Edinburgh is well served by a good network of roads and motorways, including the M8 from Glasgow to the west, and A68 from Newcastle, England to the southeast. Edinburgh knows how to welcome travelers with grace and charm. She also knows how to kick up her heels and enjoy a nice shot of Scotch Whisky after a festival. The hill that Edinburgh Castle stands upon has been Scotland’s remarkable silent witness since the Bronze Age. Today her streets are filled with cutting-edge galleries and museums, tributes to the love of literature and music, fine cuisine, quirky shops, theater, and an extravagance of festivals. Four ancient streets, called the Royal Mile, are the main thoroughfare. Running through medieval Edinburgh with her 66 alleys, tumbling shops, cobblestones, and tight homes the Royal Mile takes you to New Town. Here you’ll stroll through fine gardens, perfect Georgian architecture and broad squares. The mix of time, while lost in time, is a heady brew. There may be no finer city than Edinburgh Scotland, to participate in the gifts of the past with an eye to a brilliant future.
