The Haymarket one is pretty close to the main centre - we stayed there a few months ago and it's OK. These offers don't stay around for long though - bear in mind that it's also the easter hols!

I lived for a year
A stones throw from Haymarket. Love Edinburgh I do. Might even turn up at the bash if I happen to be working down south in the next few months.

Captain V, if you give piston_broke a nudge we were thinking of filling up a family room, so your more than welcome to gaz him with this and suggest thirds?

and if you (or anyone else) live above Cambridge on the A1(M) north im piling up on the Thursday if anyone wans lifts, and 5 hours in a car listening to 80s thrash metal and watching me chain smoke

edit: im driving and he's responsible for booking accomadation

Thanks Halfy
I'll have to pass on the lift on two counts - I'm below Cambridge and I doubt I'll be going up before Friday night or, more likely, Saturday morning.
