Location is 100% worth it! Amazing stay.

This was honestly one of the best bookings we have made on our trip. Location was excellent and lots of room inside. Kitchen was large and an elevator helped with all of our luggage we had to carry. Would 100% recommend you book if you are going to hit up all the sites in Edinburgh and want to have lots of pubs and restaurants close by.

Comfortable Stay in a Great Location

Wonderful location right off the Royal Mile. Our apartment was modern, clean, comfortable and quiet, even though we were in a busy area and there was construction going on towards the back of the building. More than enough space for our family to stretch out and relax after long days of touring the city! Linens provided were ample and clean, bath products were available in the bathrooms and the kitchen was well equipped. We would absolutely book again!

The only reason I gave 4 starts instead of 5 was there was strange smell in the hallway. Otherwise a nice place and right in the heart of Edinburgh. P.S. I think I lost my white Calia hoodie there. If you found it would you be able to return it?

Very nice property in the heart of the royal mile. We really enjoyed our short stay there! Only challenge was parking - we chose the train station as it was just a short walk, but a little pricey.

Loved the location and size of the property. Only recommendation would be to add a separate dryer. The combo didn’t dry and hanging them to dry is not ideal when you’re vacationing.

This property was wonderful. Directly on the Royal Mile. Large living area, well maintained, comfortable beds and amenities. Was a little difficult to locate. The gate to the property is in Bishops Close. The closest parking garage was about a 10 minute walk, so drop off luggage first! We used St. James Quarter garage. This was close to all sightseeing. Would definitely recommend!
