Prestigious Apartment in the heart of Edinburgh

West End

"The location was very good especially for buses and trams. The flat was nothing special, in fact it was very poorly furnished, cheapest of furniture, no tissues, no paper towel, no cloths to wipe the counters or bathroom, two tiny containers of soap and shampoo for two people for an entire week. Give the minimum and pay the maximum. Also, asking for more money as an excuse to get access to the key box was the final straw. I will NEVER rent with Altido or Joivey again."

Top Haymarket Hotel Reviews

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, good food and drinks but mostly the location! A short walk to the Royal mile, Grassmarket right across the street."

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"No laundry facilities for guest use—only laundry service. Otherwise fabulous! The staff were so friendly and helpful. They allowed us to check in early in the morning, which was a lifesaver because we were wiped out from traveling. They helped us figure out how to use the train station when we were leaving as well. The train station is a stone’s throw from the hotel—very convenient. We loved our stay and would stay here again!"

Britannia Hotel Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Breakfast okay. Regular English options. Room cleanliness needs work, a bit of a hoover and dusting around ends would be great. Shower curtain was mouldy at the bottoms so that was a bit gag inducing. Shower itself pressure okay. Room was noisy at nights as could hear the plumbing for everyone's shower. Constant sounds. 2 single beds, nice, clean sheets, comfy pillows. All in all okay for price and distance into Edinburgh was good. Within walking distance to Dean village if you have that on your check list."
