The apartment is in a great location, convenient and walking distance to most everything we wanted to see and do. Beds were comfortable, heat and hot water plentiful. Owner was responsive and pleasant to work with.
We were very happy with our stay. The apartment was perfect for our family of four. The home was comfortable and very clean. Would definitely recommend to anyone and stay there on future visits.
We had an excellent stay! Shahid was kind enough to let us check in early since the property had finished being cleaned. That was really helpful for some weary travelers on the day of our arrival. The unit was spotless and comfortable. I loved the huge towels! Need to find some at home!The location can’t be beat! So easy to walk to a number of historic locations. Also very convenient to have a coffee shop right downstairs!
We went with our family and absolutely loved the property. The location could not have been better, and communication with Shahid was wonderful. We will be back.
We had a wonderful time! Everything is clean and well maintained and it is the perfect Edinburgh location. There are lots of steps to get to the condo- but you can’t go anywhere in Edinburgh without climbing some steps!
Everything at this apartment on the Royal Mile was great. Plenty of room, very clean, excellent location, and the host was easily accessible. This VRBO made our visit to Edinburgh a great stop on our tour of Scotland.
We arrived for a few days to visit the university
Communciation was prompt
Location is right in the middle of action
Walking distance to all restaurants and tourist sites
The property was very spacious for our family of 5. The location was ideal. We could watch the street performers on the Royal Mile from our window and it was very walkable to everything.
Two couples enjoyed this apartment in the heart of the Royal Mile. Unbeatable location with comfortable accommodations. Plenty of room, beds comfortable and had everything you would need for a fantastic stay. We enjoyed watching out the window at the crowds below. Very quiet however to sleep. Unbeatable stay!!!
Parliament Square Apartment was the perfect stay for our family of 4. Beautiful apartment, pictures are accurate. A lot of space, full amenities and location is in the heart of everything. Check in was easy and host answered all my questions quickly. I would absolutely stay here again! Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Aside from the Edinburgh weather :), everything about this property was perfect. It was clean and had everything we needed including comfortable beds. Highly recommended.
Very tidy, clean and spacious apartment. Well equipped. Ideal location for getting around Edinburgh. Owner was very accommodating when we wanted to check out a couple of hours later. Would stay there again, and would recommend to others.
Clean, tidy and well equipped apartment with a fantastic location. Owners were very responsive to queries. Only downside for us was the amount of stairs to apartment (no lift) particularly for older guests.
That said can highly recommend.
The property was beautiful, impressive size, clean, big windows, fantastic location. Property manager was responsive and helpful. We were not aware that the flat was many levels up with no elevator at booking, was a challenge for our senior parent. Nevertheless we would definitely recommend this rental for able bodied folks who want to be in the heart of the Edinburgh action!
Spacious, clean and comfortable apartment right on the Royal Mile, across the street from Mary King’s Close and blocks from the castle and train station. This is a fantastic place to stay to explore Edinburgh. Host communication was easy. The stairs are a bit of a challenge with luggage but worth it once you’re settled in. I’d definitely stay here again if we come back, which I hope we do!
We stayed at the Parliament Square flat during the Fringe - Fabulous location!!
Great communication from Shahid, providing clear check-in instructions well ahead of our stay as well as a phone call just after our arrival to make sure everything was OK.
There were also very clear instructions in the flat for how everything worked and what do do with dishes, rubbish etc. on departure - always helps.
