Car park in green drive

ONE of the city's top places to stay has declared its car park the "greenest in the city" after revealing plans to donate all profits to planting trees.

The Knight Residence, the Lauriston Street apartments which were named the best place to stay in Europe by users of travel website Expedia in 2008, said it would charge guests 5 per night to use the car park, with 100 per cent of the profits donated to Trees for Scotland.

General manager Colin Stone said: "Since opening we have tried to minimise our environmental impact."
