from EICC to Royal Terrace Hotel late on a Sunday night?

Going to a show and staying at said establishment. (Courtesy of daughters birthday pressie to her indoors).

No mates rates req'd will be a flag down on Lothian Rd(ish)

Any reviews on hotel would be appreciated good/bad/indifferent.

Thanks all for feedback, £10 it is then. Don't want to look like a down at heel taxi driver from the sticks. Wait a minute I am. :cry: :lol:

How about the hotel? Website naturally looks brilliant, but how accurate?

Listen, I have a great rapport with my customers.

I once had a female passenger tell me, "Dirver, that was the best ride I ever had".

Must be doing something right, eh?
