Great large apartment right at the bottom of the castle off Princes street. We stayed with our two young kids and they loved having the extra space. Walkable to everything.

The apartment is marvelous. Everything is in good condition and it is pretty. Really comfortable and it has everything you could need when traveling. Pretty good size and location. We would prefer that the apartment had a lift and AC. I definitely can recommend this place.

Great location
The property is fantastic. located extremely well for Princess and George Street with the apartment being well presented, clean and all the facilities needed and as described. The only area to improve on is that the property does not have air conditioning and if the weather is good the sun shines directly in and you cannot really leave the windows open due to noise emanating from Princess St

Central location
Beautiful apartment overlooking Princess Street, couldn’t get a more central spot. Apartment was spotless, cosy and comfortable with secondary glazing which kept the noise down and underfloor heating in the bathroom. Had everything you would need for your stay with good quality bed linen and towels. Would definitely stay there again.

Fabulous Edinburgh Apartment.
An absolutely wonderful stay in a beautiful apartment. Well appointed and spotlessly clean. What an awesome location. Everything you need is on your doorstep. Tourist attractions, fabulous restaurants and bars as well as great local Tesco. Would definitely recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay. The only thing I felt was unfair was that our sons paid (xmas gift) for a castle view from the apartment, and a big section of the main window was poorly boarded up spoiling the view that was paid for.

We had a great experience! Communication with staff was prompt and professional. The apartment was wonderful and in excellent condition. Our only regret was that it was just for one night. I would certainly rent this apartment again!

Lovely central apartments
Both our apartments were lovely. We were overlooking princes street. Very central location. Spacious apartment, nicely decorated, plenty of toiletries in bathroom. Car parking was a 5-10 min walk away, quite expensive but we did receive a discount staying here. Would recommend and would stay again in the future.

This was a great place to stay in Edinburgh. It was nice, had all updated modern amenities and centrally located to tasty restaurants and tourist locations - we walked almost everywhere. I would definitely stay there again - It was nice having a spacious studio.
A few items I read in other reviews that were helpful: 1. The office, several blocks away, will let you store your luggage until you can check in. We arrived early, so this was nice. 2. There are no elevators - This was good to know in advance. I highly recommend these apartments.

Fabulous base for visiting Edinburgh. Apartment for brilliant, with everything we needed. Traffic noise outside, which didn’t bother me as I slept like a log but woke my husband a few times. For the room price though, well worth it but maybe take ear plugs.
