Discover the Historic Grassmarket, Edinburgh

Nestled in the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town, the Grassmarket is one of the city’s most vibrant and historic quarters. Once a bustling medieval marketplace dating back to the 14th century, it also holds a fascinating, if dramatic past as a site of public gatherings and historic executions beneath the shadow of Edinburgh Castle.

Today, it has transformed into a lively hub filled with independent shops, traditional pubs, cosy cafés, and characterful restaurants.

As the weather begins to warm and spring sunshine returns, there’s no better place to soak up the atmosphere than the Grassmarket’s charming pavement tables; perfect for relaxing with a coffee, a meal, or a refreshing drink while watching the world go by in one of Edinburgh’s most iconic settings.

Staying in the city has never been easier or more convenient. Destiny Scotland Apartments offers stylish, centrally located accommodation within easy walking distance of the Grassmarket and many of Edinburgh’s major landmarks, making it the ideal choice for exploring everything the city has to offer.

Did you know?

The iconic clock on Edinburgh’s Balmoral Hotel is set 3 minutes fast and it’s been that way since 1902!

Originally known as the North British Station Hotel, the idea was simple: give travelers a little nudge so they wouldn’t miss their trains at nearby Waverley Station.

For over a century, this clever time trick has helped keep people on schedule, with the clock tower visible across much of the city.

But there’s one special exception ....On Hogmanay (New Year’s Eve), the clock is set to the correct time so everyone can count down to midnight together.

A small detail with a big history, proof that even time itself can have a Scottish twist.
