About this property

Home-from-home; 10 mins from city centre; Free on-street parking; Well-equipped

Located on the ground floor (but with steps), the Restalrig Apartment, with free Wifi and free on-street parking, welcomes two guests maximum.

The one-bedroom apartment features a fully equipped kitchen with a two-seater breakfast table, while a dining table and chairs can be found in the living room.

The apartment is located in a residential building, so late check-ins are not possible - 2200hrs being the latest.

This is not a party flat. CCTV protected (cameras located externally obviously!).

Maximum number of guests: Two (2) for licencing, fire & insurance reasons. Extra guests are strictly forbidden and the booking will be cancelled.

CEC STL Licence number: EH-71449-R

EPC rating: Band C

I will pay the new Tourist Tax of 5% on your behalf - until the booking websites and local council sort out their systems! This is reflected in the slightly higher rate cost per night.

Wonderful experience at "home-from-home" in Edinburgh

It truly felt like a home away from home. Comfortable and cute. Clean and quiet. Great location in residential neighborhood with a small grocery store and coffee shop just across the street and a local pub a couple of blocks away. The bus stop with buses to old town, downtown, and the marina right outside. Our host was quick to respond to our questions and she provided lots of information on things to do in Edinburgh.

We enjoyed staying at this property. It was very clean and had everything you could possibly need for a short stay. The location was great too and there is a bus stop right outside the front door to get into the city centre. There are also shops right on the doorstep. If I was returning to Edinburgh, I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone.
