The best accommodations that is close to all sites

Our experience with booking and communication when arriving was top notch. Our stay was close to everything and many restaurants and pubs to choose from. When I come back I’ll stay here again!

Michelle, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fabulous property close to everything. Clean, quiet with views of the castle. Tesco Express directly downstairs is convenient
View from the flat
Mary, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean rooms, simple decor. GREAT views. Door closer on living room is a huge pain. Beds were a bit hard
Stephen, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The location was great. The front room was a little noisy from the street
stephen, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Liked that it was in a good location to tour city. A drawback to that was city noise including police sirens.
Melissa, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Ok it's on Princes Street so obviously really busy. The hallway going into the space was a little musty smelling but the rooms more than made up for that. We stayed in a two bedroom facing the castle. It was huge and great for 4 people. Immaculate and loads of dishes and cookery in the kitchen. I wouldnt hesitate to stay there again.
Pamela, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Ideally located. A very nice apartment.
Shannon, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Such a spacious and gorgeous space right on princes street! The view from our room was stunning and we slept so well!
Rainya, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a very nice apartment and great for a group. Modern amenities and QUIET. As stated in description , you WILL have to walk up some stairs to carry your luggage if you are staying in one of the top floor apartments. Close to the tram stop which is convenient for traveling to the airport. It is a small walk to Old Town and the big tourist attractions, but can be easily accessed with one of those Big Red hop on buses.
Andrew, 2-night trip

Loved this property, was everything we could have hoped for. Shopping, groceries, dining, etc was all within walking distance

Great location

Great place to stay right on Princes Street. Had a wonderful view of the castle and within walking distance of shops and restaurants. There were homeless by the front door, so safety when entering and leaving was a concern, but we didn’t have any problems.

The flat was quite beautiful and very well kept. The location is 10/10 with everything in walking distance, even the train to the airport. Loved the view of the castle also! Would definitely stay here again & recommend this location to anyone travelling through or wanting to explore Edinburgh
