Perfect and Convenient Place

The apartment was perfect for 3 adults. The space was clean and had all the amenities we needed. The location couldn’t have been better. We visited during Hogmanay and it was walking distance to everything but far enough away so there were no crowds or noise from the celebration around the apartment. We were very pleased with our stay and hope to be back one day!

Holyrood apt

This flat was great- definitely on the historic side but clean! Worked perfectly for my husband, son and I while staying in Edinburgh. We walked to the royal mile and up to the castle from the apartment- beware it’s all uphill but totally worth the walk! There was a tesco right around the corner and lots of cafes for coffee or a pastry in the morning. We would definitely stay here again!

This is in a truly great location. You can walk to most if not all of the top 10 things to see/do witin Edinburgh. We walked everywhere. We stayed 3 nights. The beds are comfortable, the property manager was great and the cleaners werd kind and helpful. This is a bit dated and the furnishings/decor are not high quality but its clean and comfortable.

Nice stay

Great location. Lots of room. Easy communication with owner. Main bedroom mattress could use a refresh as well as shower, which has mold and needs caulking to prevent leaking all over the floor. And as others have noted, the toilets need attention. Overall, a nice place to stay!

Wonderful stay at Holyrood!

The apartment is a perfect home away from home. It is safe, quiet and really spacious by European standards. I was traveling with my young adult son and we had plenty of room to spread out. It is fully equipped with necessities and is close to everything. We walked everywhere we went, but there is convenient transportation nearby. I will definitely plan my next trip to Edinburgh around the availability of this sweet, sweet apartment!

Great time in Edinbourgh

The greatest plus of the apartment is of course it location. It is located in the very heart of Edinbourgh. The Royal Mile is only a few steps away. Many highlights can be reached within a short walk. I also recommend going up to Arthurs Seat, great view! The apartment was tidy and has everything needed for a comfortable stay in Edinbourgh, including parking. I can highly recommend the place!.

Spot on!

As everybody mentions the location really is as good as it gets. The host very kindly allowed us an early check in which was very kind. The apartment was very comfortable and exceeded our expectations. The one downside was the carpet in the en suite bedroom. It wouldn't cost a lot to replace it and it really does need to be replaced! If this was to be done I would stay here again without a doubt.
