“Stayed here for a weekend. The flat is perfect. .10 min walk from Princes Street. Excellent sized flat. We had 6 adults staying and it didn't feel cramped. Will definitely use again.”
“A very comfortable, well maintained flat in a perfect location.
Terrific restaurants nearby, pubs across the Grassmarket, steps to the castle and Royal Mile.
Having breakfast every morning while looking at the castle makes for a perfect vacation. The kitchen and bath are well maintained and have everything you should need. The bedroom was wonderfully comfortable and nicely decorated. We just loved our time in this apartment. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay”
“Third time we have stayed in this flat and it was clean, comfortable and good value as always. It has been refurbished since our last visit which was a lovely surprise - the beds are so comfy....... The only down side are the stairs to get up to the flat and the fact that I'm not getting any younger!”
“Stayed in 1 BR flat in Sheriff Park, Leith neighborhood in Edinburgh, June 2013. Very handy to bus connection (#22 direct to Waverly) which we used on a daily basis -- purchased a 1-month bus pass (available just around the corner from Waverly: 1 block west then 1 block south) and found bus connections to be very convenient. Side trips we took were to Dunfermline, Glasgow, and Portobello, the last by local bus, an additional advantage. The flat in Leith is on the ground floor and although small it has everything we needed, as well as the spectacular view of Water of Leith and the bird life -- better than watching TV! Gillian, the contact, did not actually meet us on arrival but her husband John did, and he successfully checked us out on everything in the flat: central heating, redundant electric appliance activation, rubbish receptacles, and Gillian did check in with us in person later. She is very conscientious and helpful with questions we had. There's a Tesco just south of the flat, but I found the Sainburys a short distance north of the bus stop (to the first traffic light) then turning right, to be a nicer store and that's where we routinely shoppped for daily necessities. We pepared meals for probably half the time we were there, 3 wks, and had no problems with operation of kitchen appliances. This flat was just what we were looking for, and can't say enough about how helpful Janet at Edinburgh Flats was in her assistance with selection of this particular place -- location is a short bus ride to the city center yet has the advantage of a totally quiet location, not counting the music of the birds. Couldn't have been more pleased.”
“This is a fabulous flat, well situated and very comfortable. The owners made the planning very clear and the stay was very enjoyable. I'd definitely recommend it and will book again when next in Edinburgh.”
“During our visit of Edinburgh, we really appreciated the location of the flat. This appartement has a good decoration and well furnished. The only bad point is the sofa bed which is not confortable. But it did not ruin our week there.”
“We loved this flat. It was nicely appointed, bright, warm, and well-appointed. The location is absolutely perfect. We had planned on buying bus passes, but found we did not need them due to the central location. The people involved with the rental were helpful and friendly. We plan on staying here again and highly recommend it.”
“We loved this flat! It is very well-appointed (dishwasher, washing machine, well-equipped kitchen) and comfortably furnished (so rare in rental properties) with two huge sofas in the sitting room. The bed in the master bedroom is probably a standard size but seems a bit lost in the vast bedroom but this is the only very slight niggle.
The location could not be better being minutes walk from the cafes and delis of Stockbridge and a Waitrose a short drive away.
The owner is very helpful and key collection etc could not have been easier. Highly recommended.”
“We had a really good stay, everything was very clean and cosy. The location and views are great. It made our trip very easy. We completely recommend it.”
“My stay at this flat for some days was just great. Lovely landlord helped me out with all kinds of stuff, as I was in between apartments at the time. Very helpful and kind woman. As to the flat it was perfect for one person or couple. It was fairly small, but more than enough space with a nice bedroom, living room with dining table, tv and sofa - and a nice bathroom with toilet. Also a kitchen if you would want to make dinner "at home".
Thank you very much for a great stay, highly recomendable.”
“We stayed here for 4 nights with group of 7 people. Because parking is free only over night (except free Sunday), we spent most of time driving across Scotland and stay here only for nights. Rooms are small but enough for sleeping and breakfast.
There is also lots of friendly restaurants and supermarket nearby.”
“four of us stayed here for a weekend in September. great central location. very comfortable accommodation. we appreciated the tea and biscuits on arrival. plenty of hot water for four people and a found it to be a warm cosy apartment. definitely plan to return again.”
“We were delighted with this property. The living area is spacious, comfortable and immaculately furnished. The kitchen has top range appliances, all in good order, including a dishwasher. Bedrooms are clean and very comfortable. A quiet location but close to shops, buses and the city centre.”
“The flat is very well located. Close to all central scenic site, all within walking distance. With all facilities you need in the flat. Can do laundry by your own, if wished. The meeter is punctual and very helpful. Good sources of information for first time visitor. All in all, it was an excellent flat which provided a very pleasant stay. Will certainly rent the flat at next visit to Edinburgh.”
“This tidy little flat had everything we needed. 2 good sized beds and 1.5 bathrooms, clean and well stocked. The welcoming treats were very appreciated! The location was great with many buses a short walk away. Great deli a few blocks away as well as nice pubs. The huge park across the street was nice to walk through on sunny days. Would stay there again.”
“This is by far the best place we have found to stay in Edinburgh (and we have been to quite a few). Buses on the doorstep; as are pubs and eateries. Lovely quirky house; and extremely nice hosts, who live next door. We will definitely be returning. In fact this is the 2nd time we have been there.”
