Please note due to major TRAM works Princess street is completely closed to cars\traffic at the moment. Please phone and check in advance for best route in to avoid delay.
If you are travelling by car from any direction, follow the signs to the city centre. If you are coming from the west, you will arrive in Princes Street with gardens and Castle on its south side. From there, the map will guide you to Queen Street, which is towards the West end of Princes Street.
From the west, you must approach Queen Street via South Charlotte Street, follow the main "drag" of traffic turning right onto Queen Street.
Cars cannot travel in either direction along the length of Princes Street any more. Apologies - but Edinburgh city centre is very "car unfriendly". There are no through roads; one way traffic management and roads where cars cannot travel at all.
If you are arriving by plane, Edinburgh Airport is only seven miles west of the centre of the city.
Car hire is available at the airport to serve all scheduled flights. The journey time to the town centre is around twenty minutes, although commuter traffic may increase this slightly between eight and ten in the mornings and four and six in the evenings.
The airport bus is very good - the service is frequent and leaves from just outside arrivals hall. Please alight at the Mound next to Princess Street Gardens and follow the Map.
If you are arriving by train, Waverley Station is shown on the map. A short taxi ride will take you to Queen Street, although you may prefer to walk the 5-10 minute distance. Walk up onto Princes Street, and follow the map.
If you are arriving by bus, St Andrew Square is also shown on the map and is no more than a five minute walk from us, again follow the map.
