Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection is a centrally located hotel set directly on Princes Street, one of Edinburgh’s most iconic and lively thoroughfares. Its prime position places it right between the Old Town and New Town, making it an ideal base for exploring the city on foot, with landmarks like the Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle, and Waverley Station all just a short walk away.

The hotel has recently been fully refurbished under The Unlimited Collection, giving it a more design-led, contemporary identity inspired by Scottish culture, literature, and vintage travel themes. The interiors mix modern comfort with characterful touches such as textured fabrics, leather details, and nods to Edinburgh’s railway and storytelling heritage. Rooms are generally compact to mid-sized, but thoughtfully designed with modern amenities, comfortable beds, and city or landmark views depending on category.

What makes Mount Royal stand out is its unbeatable central location combined with its refreshed boutique-style concept. Guests also have access to an on-site restaurant and bar, which lean into locally inspired food and drinks, making it more than just a place to sleep. It’s especially popular with travellers who want maximum convenience and easy access to Edinburgh’s main sights, nightlife, and shopping without relying on transport.
