City North & East In the north of the city, the dynamic area of Leith has seen great change over the past decade, and the redeveloped waterfront includes the Scottish Executive, the decommissioned Royal Yacht Britannia (for which we can offer tickets to accompany your hotel booking) and the new Ocean Terminal retail and leisure complex with Conran restaurant. Contemporary bars and restaurants abound in Leith. Hibernian Football Club's Easter Road Stadium is also found in this area. To the East, Portobello and its beach lead towards Musselburgh and the A1 to Berwick. |

New Town Edinburgh's Georgian New Town is the UK's largest historical monument, and its parallel streets run north from Princes Street and George Street, the main shopping areas of the city centre. Waverley Train Station is found just off Princes Street, and the city centre is well served by bus routes and taxis. New developments include The Omni retail, cinema and health club complex in the east end of the New Town, and Harvey Nichols on St Andrew Square. George Street is peppered with newly opened bars and restaurants, and has a more relaxed, casual atmosphere at night. |

Old Town Edinburgh's historic Old Town is home to many of the city's tourist attractions, including Edinburgh Castle, the Palace of Holyroodhouse, the Edinburgh Dungeon and the Camera Obscura. The Royal Mile leading up to the Castle has specialty shops and restaurants, and doubles as a performance arena over the festival period. The Cowgate area is now well known for its bars and clubs which are open late and attract a bustling crowd weekround. Princes Street Gardens hosts seasonal events including concerts, firework displays and a Christmas village. On the western edge of this area is The Exchange, Edinburgh's fast-growing financial district including the EICC conference venue. |
