The Jam HouseEdinburgh
After several visits to Edinburgh Jam House I thought I would attempt a review. I have been lucky enough to attend ?Jam House? twice in the last 6mths. Since I live in Edinburgh I find myself trying different places from time to time, so rest assured I can happily compare this venue to many others within the city. This review is based on a visit that I made on the 11th April 2009. We were in a group of 7.

You'll see plenty of grand staircases, marble-plated halls and conference rooms, while - depending on the modd of the guide - you may also have the chance to go on to the balcony, which offers the defining view ...
Advantages: Informative and relatively unique. Disadvantages: Presentation gets a bit boring.
