General Details
This accommodation is located 1.5 miles from Princes Street in Leith Links, an area almost as historic as the city centre itself.
The first ever rounds of golf were played in the picturesque green park of Leith Links, right opposite Merith House Hotel.
It takes about 10 minutes to reach Edinburgh city centre by bus, or less than half an hour to walk.
Accommodation
Most bedrooms at Merith House have private en-suite facilities [with shower, toilet and wash basin].
Each room has a colour television, and tea and coffee making facilities.
There is a choice of double, twin, single and family rooms available.
Every bedroom comes with a key to unlock the front door, so that guests have unrestricted access and flexibility when visiting the many attractions of Edinburgh.
Food and Drink
A full Scottish breakfast is served each morning, in the bright and sunny dining room.
A selection of cereals, fruit juices, yoghurts and cheeses is also available at breakfast time.
If you decide not to take advantage of the many dining opportunities nearby, an evening meal can often be provided - please order well in advance if you require this service.
Location
Directions to Merith House Hotel can be provided on request.
The regular bus service between the city centre and Leith Links often runs late into the night.
Off street parking is available free of charge for guests in the private car park to the rear of the building - please request your parking space in advance.

The fashionable Portobello Beach is only a mile away, with the Leith Waterworld attraction and the Royal Commonwealth Pool also close to Merith House.
