A view of the Palace of Holyrood
Holyrood Abbey is a ruined abbey of the Canons Regular in Edinburgh, Scotland. The abbey was founded in 1128 by King David I. During the 15th century, the abbey guesthouse was developed into a royal residence, and after the Scottish Reformation the Palace of Holyroodhouse was expanded further. The abbey church was used as a parish church until the 17th century, and has been ruined since the 18th century. The remaining walls of the abbey lie adjacent to the palace, at the eastern end of Edinburgh's Royal Mile. The site of the abbey is protected as a scheduled monument.
The palace as it stands today was built between 1671–1678 in a quadrangle layout.

Great room, clean and perfect location for the airport. Most staff lovely but a couple seemed really put out with our being there. Bar area and food are fine but super busy and not enough staff. Overall great and would stay again, just wish they had happier staff!

As a young, female solo traveler, this hotel was perfect. Good location for the bus and proximity to the city center. The staff was very friendly and at the desk 24/7. And the room and amenities are good for the price.
