 The King James by Thistle – formerly Thistle Edinburgh

The King James by Thistle – formerly Thistle EdinburghThe King James by Thistle – formerly Thistle Edinburgh features Craig's Restaurant, very much appreciated, where all the dishes are prepared using the finest local produce. Situated in the heart of Scotland's capital, valued throughout, just off the world-famous Princes Street, a short walk from Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace and the National and Scottish Galleries. In your en suite room you'll be able to make a hot drink, highly regarded, with ironing facilities and a flat-screen TV, which is Freeview, on hand. For an interesting contrast, and above all, try the Boston Bean Company, an informal alternative, serving an excellent range of meals all day.
