Beautiful apartment, central location with so many places to see within a 15 minute walk. Started every morning with a coffee and our amazing view of Edinburgh Castle.
Doug, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

Great place to stay. Very central. We only would have loved to have a mirror in the bathroom!! The mattresses were also very soft and a bit worn. Otherwise all great.

10/10 Excellent

What a wonderful place to stay. I never dreamed we’d be able to book such a lovely place to stay with views of St John’s and Edinburgh Castle from our window. Staff was friendly and helpful, and I can’t thank them enough.
Keith, 4-night trip

Very nice location and clean apartment.
Naleendra, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Apartment was wonderful inside and building next to a TESCO. Washer and dryer a bit tricky. Dryer locks so best to operate the night before check out.
Brenda, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Good view of castle from flat. There is no elevator . Parking an easy walk but through a busy area. Great pubs and restaurants nearby. Unfortunately there is a food store at geound level that drew the homeless and trash.
Kathy, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great location and condition.
Ann-Maree, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great apartment - and location.
gina, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great location, close to everything you need

Our family came from London to visit Edinburgh. We loved it. Our stay was great. The only downside is that there isnt a lift. So we had to carry up things and down the stairs, including my 16 month old son and his big stroller. Other than that, its a great place to stay!! Super clean and pretty updated.
Omar, 5-night trip

8/10 Good

Property management was quick in helping us with a parking problem. Every hotel is in the same situation as there's only free parking at a church. Otherwise you have to pay €10 a day between eight and 6 o'clock. But the area was great and we had a fun time.
Diane, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Perfect stay for family of 4!

Great Stay for our family of 4. Perfect location. Will be back!
Melissa, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

The location is fantastic! The castle view cannot be beat. Everything is within walking distance. Having Tesco next door is beyond convenient. The flat itself was super clean & just perfect for the two of us. Having said that the windows could use a cleaning & other comments about the homeless (only 1 guy) are true but he didn’t bother us & isn’t always around. There is often some litter around the front door but usually cleaned up during the day. None of it bothered us, it’s part of living in a big, old city. I do feel a ceiling fan would be a great addition as the flat did often feel stuffy & for safety I’m sure-the windows only open maybe 2-3”. Would definitely stay there again & I do highly recommend the property.
