What an asset this would be for the City, the Country and the International Festival audience. It couldn't be called the Odeon so, perhaps, New Victoria Centre could be this cultural capital's latest and greatest venue.

I should like to see it promote social, economic and cultural diversity and success rather than solely seek to satisfy the wallets of developers by praying on tourists with a poor knowledge of Edinburgh's layout. Clearly, Clerk Street is not a prime tourism hotspot - to locate a boutique hotel here adds no public welfare benefit and is misleading for future guests given the busy nature of Clerk street and its location away from the centre.
