Lovely apartment. Clean, fresh, spacious, well-equipped, and brilliant location for sites and for food. Also very useful to be able to have somewhere to leave luggage if arriving or leaving later than check-out time. Recommend full-heartedly, but beware… no lift!!

The apartment was fantastic. It was spotlessly clean, well equipped, comfortable and spacious. The communal areas were smart and well maintained. Great central location. My apartment was at the rear and had a Castle view which was wonderful. There was very little noise from the other apartments. An added bonus was having access to the building before and after check in and out for leaving luggage. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful stay in this very charming and spotlessly clean apartment. It is strategically located, making it incredibly convenient to explore the city on foot. The apartment was perfect for the two of us, spacious, well equipped with everything we needed, and exceptionally clean. The team made everything super smooth for me and my husband from start to finish. A special mention to Elizabeth, who manages the building, she was very helpful and accommodating, and her thoughtful recommendations truly made our stay feel extra special. She also checked in on us to make sure we felt at home, which we really appreciated. Just a small note for future guests: there are stairs, so it may be something to consider if you’re carrying large luggage or have knee problems. It wasn’t an issue for us at all. Overall, we highly recommend this apartment and would happily stay again.

Overall very good, good communication, clean, spacious and well equipped. Fantastic location. 8 minute walk to Royal Mile, 10 minute walk to Festival Theatre. Our apartment was on the side looking over a side street which unfortunately was noisy until late into the night. We did stay fri-monday so being a weekend maybe nosier

The apartment itself is lovely, spotless and central. Very cute and the kitchen came well stocked with what you would need for a short stay. The lovely staff member (I'm sorry I didn't catch her name!) helped us get our luggage up the stairs and was very sweet. The Italian restaurant, Vittoria, downstairs was tasty as well if you're too tired to travel far for dinner! The only downside to this apartment was the noise level from the street in the evenings. I was very grateful to have brought my ear plugs or it would have been a sleepless few nights for me. If you're not noise sensitive, it's a great choice, if you are, bring earplugs!

Such a beautiful space in the heart of Old Town, Edinburgh. The apartment was beautifully furnished and had all the amenities necessary. Perfectly clean and organized, this space felt safe with clear instructions on how to access and manage. Located in a perfect spot in the city centre, I absolutely loved my stay here! Would recommend profusely.

Once we got there, restaurants were nearby and it was a short walk to the castle and the Royal Mile. Thought the bathroom was very nice, also the rest of the space. There are lockers downstairs to leave suitcases as there is no elevator.

The suite was so well equipped; kitchen had fridge, freezer, washing machine, and dishwasher. There was also a small table and chairs. Wonderful bath/shampoo products. Great layout and amazing location. We were two staying but had relatives come for dinner and had enough space for 4 at the small kitchen table (moved to living area).

It's a central location in old town: 5 minutes from Castle and 2 minutes to Royal mile. Victoria street is next over so it gets a 5 star for location. That comes with its own downside, loud noise from bars was audible well into the night even with the windows closed. The apartment is very clean and spacious. Living room and kitchen are downstairs and king bed and sofa bed are upstairs. We were 2 adults and a kid and were comfortable. The only problem was the thermostat which had its own mind. While we were sleeping the heat would automatically come on and we would wake up feeling warm. The settings are locked and we could not change so it was a bit frustrating.

Given these have been recently refurbished the apartments are in excellent condition. The finishing and furnishings are of a high quality. One major let down is the noise from the street, it was a Saturday night but it kept us awake most of the night and spoiled what was otherwise a lovely break

The apartment was spotless and well decorated. We met a housekeeper who was cleaning some of the other apartments, and she was very nice and helpful to us, because we arrived a half an hour earlier than our check-in time and she called management to allow us to access the apartment. The only two problems was that 1. there was no traction in the shower, so my friend slipped and hurt herself. She ended up leaving Scotland a few days earlier than she was supposed to because she was having a hard time walking. I never reported it to the apartment management though. 2. There was no close parking, and the code that we were given wasn’t working, so we had to park at the Edinburgh Waverly parking garage, which was not convenient. Since my friend was hurt, we had to Uber back to the parking garage to get the rental car when we checked out. I have to say that management was very good about responding quickly to my email about the parking code not working for me. I would stay again because of how clean and modern the decor was, and how nice management and the housekeeper was.
