What is recorded here

Seven Castle Street stands in Edinburgh as a hotel, its rooms stacked above the street like a tower built for passage rather than permanence. People may have climbed those stairs tired from travel, hungry for heat, or eager to be near the castle without touching it. The building still works the same way: it gives a room, a bed and a little rest, then sends them back into the city.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Edinburgh, 7 Castle Street as Hotel (period Unassigned). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
