Car if arriving by car, I shall give specific details. Also, see parking below.

Parking:– I have a parking space too that guests can rent, for the duration of their stay, for a small surcharge. Please advise at time of booking whether you would like to use this space. The parking period pertains to the whole stay and is not available for partial let. More parking details are available in FAQ’s section.

Parking Space Booking

Applicable to whole stay duration only. The parking space can be booked by guests only, for a surcharge of £10 per day from check in to check out. 

The cost of, (City of Edinburgh), on-street parking at Infirmary St is £7.20 per hour, from Monday to Saturday 8.30am to 6.30pm: Sunday 1230pm until 630 pm and this is only for a maximum of 4 hours (and that is if you are fortunate to obtain one of only eleven pay-and-display spaces.

The space not only offers guests flexibility for parking but also the convenience of not having to move the car every 4 hours. Please be, ‘fore’ advised, though, that the street on which to access the parking space, hosts a popular venue, ‘The Caves’, and as such, (particularly at busy times i.e Edinburgh festival), the space, requires skill (and patience) to access due to pedestrians, (and sometimes unloading vehicles). The parking space itself is suitable for most cars.
