Great location. Our host was very accommodating and check in was simple. The added bonus of a parking space was very nice. Highly recommend this location for a trip to Edinburgh.
It was a lovely flat with a fantastic view of Salisbury Crags. We were two couples on holiday together, and it perfectly met our needs. Comfortable, clean, and with all the amenities we needed.
Very clean and well maintained apartment. Great location and easy walk to Edinburgh’s old and new town attractions.Great option if you need to do your laundry while traveling!
Stayed in October for 5 nights, the location is absolutely perfect , a 3 minute walk to the royal Mile , 6 minutes to the palace at Holyrood and within walking distance of Edinburgh castle. There are tons of pubs and restaurants and Santu coffee shop close by. The rooms are clean and well appointed. Two bathrooms is a huge plus. The location is quiet and safe and the included parking spot is great. The owner is quick to respond and accommodating. Would definitely stay again !!
Perfect home away from home for my sister, brother in law and husband and I . Close to everything. Very comfortable apartment, would recommend to anyone

Thanks for your kind comments Sai.
You were all great guests and I look forward to your return
Easy to find and in a great area. We loved the tea room just around the corner and it was a great place to come back to at the end of the day. Had everything we needed- hair dryer, fridge, iron, etc. I love outlander so bakehouse close being just around the corner was a dream!
This was a really nice apartment. Grateful for the lift and the location was amazing. Right off the Royal Mile. Easy check in and out. Definitely recommend and would stay here again.
My niece and I had wonderful stay at the Shahids apartment. He was most gracious, made sure we were comfortable. The apartment was in a great location. We were 1 street off the Royal Mile. Also within walking distance to most everything. The Mimi mart store was up a few blocks for your grocery needs. I would stay here again. Very clean and secure.
The location was great and we had a wonderful time. There is plenty of room and it has everything you need! We would stay again when back in Edinburgh.
Amazing house and great location. The house and its amenities were perfect for our stay and family. The loft access and private parking were great benefits but the location cannot be beaten. It was 4 minutes walk from the royal mile, 10 minutes fromHolyrood house and just perfectly situated to some amazing bakeries and restaurants as well. Would HIGHLY recommend.
The apartment was great for our family of four. Very clean and close to so many of Edinburgh’s attractions. We were able to walk to everything.
