A well-connected Edinburgh base

Frequent Lothian bus services from Inverleith Row, including the 23, 27 and 8, provide useful links into the city centre and across Edinburgh, making the area practical for researchers working across different university, hospital and professional locations.
The University of Edinburgh’s Central Area, including George Square and many academic and professional-services buildings, is readily accessible from the city centre. King’s Buildings, the University’s principal science and engineering campus, can also be reached by public transport across the city.
Western General Hospital is particularly convenient from Goldenacre, with associated medical and research facilities close by. Stockbridge and the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh are also within easy reach, making this a practical north Edinburgh base for postgraduate researchers, visiting academics and other professionals.
