The location was absolutely perfect — right in the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town. Almost everything I wanted to explore was within a 15–20 minute walk, which made my stay super convenient. The surrounding vibe was lively yet charming, with historic streets and attractions all around. I really appreciated how easy it was to get around without needing transport.

What can I say, from the minute you step in the door the fire is so inviting. We had our wedding ceremony at 3.45pm and the hotel made sure our room was ready on time, we had a welcome glass of champagne as well as the hotel bringing us a bottle to our room. Stunning view, modern decor, nespresso machine, immaculate and a Dyson hairdryer shows the quality and attention to detail in this hotel. Thanks to all who made our stay special ❤️

    The proprietor was charming and most helpful. The accommodations were exceptional. Great care taken on attention to detail. Breakfast was superb with a generous selection of a fresh fruit plate. Well located with a good bus route. Ample parking. Very happy with how quiet and relaxing it was. It has set the bar high for the rest if our vacation!

    Location was fantastic with a bus stop immediately outside. Great communication from owners. Felt like a family home not a holiday rental. Really comfy bed. Very spacious apartment. Everything you could want for a break away. Restaurants and supermarket opposite. Although on a main street, the area was quiet and there was no noise in the building. Would definitely recommend this property and would try and stay here again if we needed accommodation in Edinburgh. So much to see, but wear comfy shoes!

    This was a great little place to stay. We needed accomodation for the final two nights on return to Edinburgh after touring the rest of Scotland, and frankly these were the best accommodations we had in the country. Staff was very accommodating,, room is completely updated, and although small, was very comfortable. Food in the restaurant was very good, parking was available next door, and advice from the barkeepers for breakfast was very good.
