9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,000 reviews)

Accommodation was faultless, room, decor and cleanliness unremarkable! We stay here ever year at this time and these are the main reasons, however we enjoy a nightcap in the bar but unfortunately when we returned at 2300hours it was closed due to staff shortages which ended our night earlier than it normally would.

#Detail#
The Tolbooth was built in 1591 and would have formed the local hub for the Canongate burgh, along with the nearby Mercat Cross where merchants met and conducted their business. The Tolbooth would have had many functions, serving as courthouse, burgh jail and meeting place of the town council. The building was constructed for Sir Lewis Bellenden, the justice-clerk for the burgh, and his initials can still be seen over the archway to Tolbooth Wynd.

Bakehouse Close

Bakehouse Close, Canongate on Edinburgh's Royal Mile is one of my favourite closes, because it's so well preserved. Edinburgh Heritage have documents from the 1700's with all the names of the people that lived in the historic close, including Lord Adam Gordon; David Doig, merchant; William Dunbar, weaver and Ewen. Visiting here gives a good impression of what living in the old city must have been like.
