We really enjoyed our stay at this flat. The location truly cannot be beat—right in the heart of Edinburgh and on the Royal Mile, within walking distance to everything. The flat itself wasn’t luxurious, but it was comfortable and fairly clean overall (though we did notice a few cobwebs and spiders). A couple of small things could be improved: more linens and a throw blanket would have been nice as it did get chilly, and we couldn’t quite get the panel heating to kick on. Still, for the unbeatable location, it was a solid stay.

Location Location Location

The location of this property is spectacular. The communication with the manager of the property was excellent and check in was a breeze (once I found the property which was difficult only because I was confused). There are two negatives to the property, but if you are prepared for them (and we were), then they are not that big of a problem. The location, which is fantastic, is also what makes the apartment so loud. The street noise is loud all the time (day and night). Also, the building is hundreds of years old, which is very cool, but also makes it very loud inside (neighbors talking, walking, using the plumbing). Also, it was a challenge to get up and down the circular stairwell, especially with luggage (and obviously there are not elevators). I appreciated the newer appliances in the kitchen, that there was a dishwasher and a clothes washer was a big plus for our longer stay. The bathrooms are small, one shower was not usable because it is so small you cannot bend over to wash - you can only stand and rotate. But there is a second shower which is a nice size and we just used that shower during our stay. I really enjoyed our stay here and I would recommend the apartment to anyone who isn't bothered by the noise (come with earplugs) and who is able to get up and down a circular stairwell with their luggage.

Cracking place

Really enjoyed this flat. The location is second to none. The facilities all worked. We just loved being central during the Fringe. Paul was excellent with communication when necessary and very helpful with getting us into the flat on day one. This place is very, very special. We were two parents with our two teenagers who went in the twin room.

Best location ever, challenging steps

You simply cannot beat the location of this property, literally overlooking the Royal Mile about a hundred yards from the entrance to Edinburgh Castle! All amenities as listed. Minor gripes: filthy window panes and hallway outside the apartment, and no secure railing on winding stairway (perhaps not under the host's control), and listing should note that the apartment is accessible only by winding steps not friendly to the elderly or physically challenged. But a great choice for an Edinburgh stay due to the location alone!

Highly Recommend

Just enjoyed packed 4 day visit to Edinburgh. We once lived there so know the city quite well. This flat could not have served us better (3 adults). For location (!!), cleanliness, amenities, comforts, ease, host... can only offer accolades. One huge advantage... just one circular flight up/down, and you exit to the fun of the Jolly Judge! If available again, wouldn't consider anywhere else. Lovely!

Luxury Royal Mile Apartment

Nestled in the heart of Scotland's historic Royal Mile, this vacation rental is a delightful fusion of 300-year-old heritage and modern comfort. Despite its age, the apartment doesn't skimp on luxury, offering state-of-the-art amenities, sumptuous down comforters, and quality linens that promise a cozy retreat. The whimsical decor adds an element of charm, while the distant melody of bagpipes immerses guests in authentic Scottish culture. However, the quaint charm comes with a slight caveat: a narrow, winding stairway leading up to the apartment, a small hurdle for the promise of a stay that beautifully blends the old with the new. This rental is not just accommodation but an enriching experience that resonates with the heartbeats of Scottish history.

Top Notch Apartment

My very first time in Scotland and we wanted to be in the heart of Old Town to experience it all. This apartment was the perfect location making everything very walkable. The place was nice and clean, the beds were incredibly comfortable, and we just absolutely loved it! It was great being able to open the windows for fresh air and look out over the Royal Mile taking in all that the city has to offer. Paul was a great host and I’d definitely stay here again. -Stephen
