Clean and convenient
Nice little flat within easy walking distance of Holyrood House and the Royal Mile. Property owner and managers were all quick to respond. Kitchen is well appointed. One caveat: Bathroom is very narrow and water pressure for the shower isn't great, but it's an old building, so not too surprising on either count. Overall a nice spot and good value in a city with expensive accommodation.

Central apartment with everything you need
We stayed with 6 people at this central apartment in Edinburgh. It was clean and it looked like it has been renovated recently. The communication was without any issues and the check-in was very nice as we have been welcomed personally and showed around. Unfortunately, our lock broke one day before our arrival so we had to leave the apartment quickly after our arrival for a few hours so the lock could be replaced meanwhile. We received this information as we arrived at the apartment and it would had been nice to know about this a little earlier. However, the rest of the communication was wonderful and very friendly. The bathroom is - as described by the owner - indeed very tiny so it is not very comfortable for someone with e.g. long legs to sit on the toilet. The sleep sofa was alright for 2 nights but if you have back issues, it is not comfortable. The 2 other beds were nice. All in all, we enjoyed our stay very much and would stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Tamsin Gallagher

Host profile image
Although we now live abroad, we met at university in Edinburgh, and so this city remains close to our hearts. We had many fun days and nights in Edinburgh and like to return regularly to continue to explore the city with our family. We have seen many sides of life in Edinburgh over the years and the wealth of activities and attractions the city offers.

Why they chose this property

Our desire to return regularly to edinburgh prompted us to purchase a property here. This apartment was spacious, with traditional features but with the potential for modernisation. It now has a contemporary and airy feel. It is close to all of Edinburgh's main attractions, to enable us to use it as a base for our family, and to share with others who also wish to explore the city.

What makes this property unique

This is a bright, airy and modern apartment with traditional features. The location makes it easily accessible to all of Edinburgh's attractions, with or without a car.
