Even for a city centre venue, the COSLA Conference Centre could hardly be better located. Transport links are excellent by rail, air or road.  We’re just a couple of minutes walk from Haymarket station, on the bus route for the Airport Express (20 minutes from the terminal) and close to a number of large car parks.  

If you have time away from the meeting, we’re only a 15 minute stroll from Princes Street and George Street where history, architecture and superb shopping come together in a spectacular, unique setting. The Scottish National Galleries, the Scott Monument and Edinburgh Castle are within easy reach too.
