Ah! S**t.

Is there a secret hotel up there I might not yet have come across that anyone knows about?

This looks to be available

And then get a train 🙂

VERY doubtful. My family visit me here every year as my brother does the marathon - free places are in very short supply.

Glasgow is only 45mins away on the train (?)

got a tent?

Normally, I would be happy with slightly offbeat ideas (like a tent), or staying far out of the city, but this time, I arrive at the train station after 8 p.m., and need to be fresh for business by 9:00 the next morning in Leith.

15 min taxi ride

Bloody good! I got it!

Thanks to all of you for helping out. 8)

My flat is empty just now, near the Conference Centre. (between tenants)

Too slow ! But thanks for tip, time for a Gunmtree ad for weekend a let.

No chance! 15 mins to the outskirts maybe. I'd give it at least an hour if your going to Leith for 9am.....at least!

Edit - Just re-read your post, looks like your not travelling in rush hour. If its Sunday your heading to Leith 30mins will do.

I think Jodafett is referring to the weekend road closures in town for the marathon. Including London road / Leith. Definitly give yourself some extra time and maybe consider walking the last part if required.

Whereabouts is the meeting?

Just off Leith Walk. I can't remember the name of the cross street.
But to all, thanks again.
@Hels
Could you send me an email? I am in Edinburgh quite often, and could be interested in a let arrangement.
