10/10 Exceptional

Excellent room & facilities

Comfortable room with twin beds and kitchen. All basics included for eating in the room inc tea/coffee, sugar, tea towels, washing up liquid, dishwasher and washing machine tablets. Very well equipped for a short stay
H, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

3 night stay october 2025. Hotell is located very nicely if you want to visit the old parts of Edinburgh by foot. Breakfast was stashed in the small kitchen of the apartment and was ok, basic but everything we needed was there. Rooms were clean, quit and comfortable. Elevator was slow but working so really only a small irritation.
Adam, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent location

Third time staying here, 2 bedroom apartment was a little worn compared to previous stays, new washer/dryer was great?, location excellent. Small amount of mould in bathroom and this apartment had very creaky floors, compared to others
Vicki, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel location was excellent and very relaxed. Amenities are ok; however, if there was shower curtain, it’s easy to take a shower.

perfect location!

6/10 Good

The room we had was clean and refurbished but the rest of the hotel could be doing with an update. Didn’t feel safe at night getting to property.
Maureen, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very convenient for all attractions, clean and well maintained. Added bonus of a kitchen & washing machine for self catering if you require. Helpful staff.
Ann Elizabeth, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was so close to everything. Sights, train station, restaurants, etc!!
Hannah, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Tucked off a "close" in the back of Canongate Street, it is in a great quiet location, near many interesting sites and restaurants. The room was large and comfortable. We made good use of the kitchen.
Eric, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good location. I went to Edinburgh for the fringe festival and this property was in walking distance to all of the venues. They also provided a lot of items for breakfast which was a nice surprise.
Donna, 4-night trip

Joshua, 2-night trip

Thoroughly reccommend

Spotless and quiet an location 1 minute walk from royal mile
anthony p, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place was great for what we wanted as it had more room than many hotels rooms and was like an apartment with kitchen, dishwasher and washing machine. Downsides was hotwater was tempid at best and the lift was a spaceship without a rocket.
Duncan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Comfortable spacious. Love this
LIN, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Two bedroom apartment allowed our family to stay in the same room. Washer/Dryer meant we were able to pack less and wash our clothes. Stocked pantry was nice.

jennifer, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Anniversary stay

Stayed here for 3 nights, its in the heart of the Royal Mile. Close to all amenities. The check-in was fast and friendly service. The room had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. My only concern is that it needs some kind of hand rail over the bath to enable you to get in and out of the shower with ease.
Lesley, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Washing machine and kitchenette
jose, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I spent two weeks seeing the Fringe here. It's about 10-15 minutes from the the heart of the action. That's bad (walks), good (walks!), and quiet. It's on a cool old street. I had a great time.
Yosef, 14-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very clean & quiet, stocked with some groceries (coffee/tea, milk, cereal, bread) & laundry detergent on arrival. Grocery store a few minutes walk away. Windows open only a few inches so with no air conditioning, we had to ask for fans.
robert, 8-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property is conveniently located one street back from the Royal Mile. It is one of the only apartments in Edinburgh with parking and a lift, which is handy if travelling with families. However, the wifi did not work the whole time (which was a common complaint on other reviews) and the floor was soooo noisy (squeaky - poorly laid) you couldn't walk around without waking up everyone in the flat
Stephanie, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Has a kitchen for those who will use it.

The room is good, as it has a kitchen for those who will use it. Close to the old town, in the lower part. One of the curtains is not blackout, so it gets too bright early.
