Perfect location. Just 1/2 a block from the Royal Mile. Gorgeous historic building. Having a cozy apartment that is centrally located was great.
The apartment was wonderful and exactly what we hoped for. Highly recommend!

Great location on The Royal Mile. The area was really busy because of the festival, but our apartment (no 4) was out the back and really peaceful. We are in the 3 Blind Mice pizza restaurant below which was good.

Fabulous location and ambience
Amazingly cute and quaint place in a PERFECT location right off of the Royal Mile. ONLY downside is there’s no lift (old building!), and the stairs are a killer with lots of luggage. But it was worth it!

Great base for an Edinburgh adventure
This apartment was an excellent base for our trip to Edinburgh. There was plenty of room, and the full kitchen allowed us to decide when to eat out versus making something for ourselves. The combo washer/dryer also allowed for a simple clothing refresh when needed. The bedroom/loft was not ideal to access for the over 60 crowd. I would love to stay at this property during my next visit!
