If you’re looking for a real Edinburgh experience and you want to be steeped in the historical Old Town, then you might consider Fraser Suites on St. Giles Street, just off the Royal Mile. You’ll find that Edinburgh Castle, the National Gallery of Scotland and Princes Street are all within easy walking distance. The hotel has a restaurant and gym, and it offers a wide range of accommodation.

There are various categories of rooms available in this refurbished, Grade B Listed Building which first opened a couple of years ago.  You can get classic hotel rooms, suites and serviced apartments, so Fraser Suites is a good fit for parties of various sizes. The apartments are ideal for anyone seeking a central self-catering base and they include full kitchen facilities. Even the classic rooms offer a fridge and microwave. You’ll also get iPod docks, daily maid service, and high speed Internet.
