“Wow what a beautifully decorated flat in an awesome area. The only downfall is the street is opposite some pubs so it was noisy, but we ended up falling asleep easily! Sean couldn't have been more helpful! I would highly recommend this place.”
“The flat was delightful, in a very convenient location and provided everything we needed at a competitive cost. It was very useful to have the parking space as well. The flat felt a little damp initially but the heaters were remarkably efficient and we had no problems after they had kicked in for the first time. Similarly, our hearts sank at the mention of an immersion heater for hot water but it povided all the hot water we needed with no problems. The flat was clean and comfortable and we would definitely recommend it and use it again.”
“My husband and I stayed at this apartment for 5 nights with our 2 small children (1 and 2 years old). It was an ideal place to stay and provided a lot of room for the whole family. The owners were lovely and were always quick to reply to queries during the booking stage as well as during our stay. The apartment was very well equipped and the small touches of flowers on the table, hand wash and lotion, coffee etc made us feel very welcome. The car parking facility was very convenient and the apartment was walking distance to restaurants and a Tesco express supermarket. We very much enjoyed the Italian restaurant 'Vittoria' recommended to us by the owners. We would definitely recommend this apartment.”
“The entire process from booking to collecting the keys late at night, the stay was extremely comfortable. The apartment is centrally located with nice views of the castle.”
“Everything about this flat was a pleasure. A well stocked , practical kitchen, a relaxing lounge with a pleasant outlook and comfortable beds. We had a great time and it was a joy to come back to and wake up in.”
“The location is amazing, it is on the Royal Mile practically a stones throw from the Castle with great views all round. Waverley Station is a short walk & so are the shops on Princes Street as well as the places of interset such as Museam & Galeries. Good location for busses (short ride to the Royal Botanical Gardens)not to mention bars & restaurants.
The flat itself is on the top floor - so pretty hard going if you have a lot of luggage, but we have a toddler & we happily managed everyday we were there (with buggy & all!) The flat was clean & well presented, decorated simply & well equiped. The beds were very comfortable - a must after a long day out walking/sightseeing. All in all, we really enjoyed the flat & would happily go there again.
Thank you Gill & John ;-)”
“My family (father, mother, and grandmother) recently stayed in this quartermile flat while visiting my husband and I and really enjoyed this accomodation. The flat is very spacious and fairly well equiped with a washer/dryer and an assortment of kitchen supplies. We were able to cook a few meals there which saved us a lot of money, a great perk to renting a flat vs. a hotel room. I'm told the beds were comfortable and warm. The two bathrooms were a selling point. Three adults sharing one is tricky so they were happy to have a second. The views across the city and to aurthers seat were stunning. We could have done with some more comfortable seating as there is only one couch and dispite having an assortment of chairs, they aren't for snuggling up to a movie on the flat's big screen tv. Also they would have appreciated some information on how to work various items in the flat. Overall though, a great stay for a great price and would recommend it to anyone looking for space, comfort and location in Edinburgh.”
“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful apartment. Thistle street itself is full of lovely little bistro's and restaurants and yet it is quiet. The apartment is decorated in good taste and we enjoyed all the extra little touches. The apartment owner was so friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome. A home away from home. We will be booking in again! 10/10”
“This really is a lovely apartment it's very clean and nicely decorated. There are extra little touches that makes it feel homely. It is ideally situated for the train station,shopping areas of Edinburgh and many of the tourist attractions.The Landlady was very pleasant and helpfull too. We would happily stay here again.”
“The apartment are great. The photos and the reality is true.
Excellent facilities and are super central localizated.
We come back as soon as possible.”
“Were in Edinburgh for the weekend to get my wedding dress and had appointments at various bridal boutiques across the city. The location of the flat provided an ideal central base for us to come back too. Great view onto the Grassmarket & you can even spy a wee corner of the castle from the lounge window. Internally cannot fault the aesthetics of the flat, beautifully decorated, just so happens to be exactly my taste. Milk and shortbread are waiting and there's plenty tea & coffee, sugar too. Only negative aspect was the noise at night, but to be honest you shouldn't be staying at tht Grassmarket or any other central location if u want peace and quiet. I really enjoyed watching & listening to all the merry people outside, my mum, not so much! Anyhoo, will definitely be back to this little gem, loved it so much I wish it was my flat! And I got my wedding dress too, which topped off an already awesome weekend. Ps I highly recommend Armstrong & Sons for vintage lovers... I am a vintage junkie and was delighted I could see Armstrongs out the living room window!”
“A very comfortable and homely feel to the flat. The owners seem to have thought about everything a guest will need to feel comfortable and at home away from home. I would definitely return and also recommend to friends visiting Edinburgh.”
“Well-equipped flat, busstation is nearby (takes 20mins from city centre. We really enjoyed our stay there and can only recommend renting this lovely flat!”
“This apartment was excellent. It had everything you could need, for a self catering stay. We arrived late and were very pleased, to be shown the welcome pack including breakfast. Although on the top floor, the view over roof tops, made up for it. Plus, the walk to Park Street over Dean Bridge from Stockbridge, is very level. There are plenty of shops near by for supplies and some nice local restaurants.”
“We were 4 friends staying one week in Edinburgh and this flat was great. It is central, well equiped, clean and the owners were very welcoming. It is a very central flat, so you have everything you need in a 5-10 minutes walk : shops, royal mile, calton hill, princes street, train station, Edinburgh castle... It was a great trip and we totally recommend this flat for future travellers!!”
“A clean wonderfully equipt flat. Fantastic views over the park and the binoculars were a great extra. It was rather a trek to catch the bus especially pushing a wheelchair as it is uphill. The bus route was great though once you got there. The only difficulty was it is advertised as a ground floor flat but be aware that the front of the flat has five steps to access it. a great holiday would book it again.”
“The apartment was excellent, equipped with more things than we could hope to use, and the owners were very kind and helpful. All in all, i would definately recommend it to everyone without a second thought.”
