The penthouse is charming, comfortable and convenient. The queen sized beds were just fine, and the kitchen was very well appointed. The elevator was a must for us older types who wouldnt have been able to carry our luggage up that far. There is so much to see and do, three days were not enough. We may have to return!

This was a wonderful property for us to decompress after a hectic couple of weeks of touring the wonders on Northern Scotland. We did spend two nights in the crowded chaotic Edinburgh town centre and it was so nice to get to this spacious apartment, close to all necessary amenities but with out the crowds. I felt sorry for the people below us, as even tho we tried to be quiet, the floors were pretty squeaky!

Fantastic Apartment

Excellent location close to the tram line with easy access to all of Edinburgh’s highlights. Great views from the balcony for a relaxing glass of wine at the end of the day and some lovely personal touches from the host such as a nice box of shortbread on arrival. Looking forward to the next visit!

Nice Spacious Apartment

This was a really nice apartment. Plenty of space and nice for a group of friends travelling together. The kitchen was well supplied. There is an elevator, but there is a 1/3 of a flight of stairs down to it. The location is a little far from most of the tourist attractions, but it worked well for us.

About the host

Hosted by Fiona

Host profile image
I am a working mother living in Edinburgh! I grew up in Aberdeen in Scotland and have since lived and travelled in Azerbaijan, Australia and Finland. I've now been back in Scotland and in this fantastic city for just over 3 years, and I can really say that Edinburgh feels like our home.
There are so many hidden places to discover in (and around) Edinburgh, it constantly surprises me even after years of living here.

I look forward to sharing this beautiful city with you. :D

Why they chose this property

I live nearby and love the area. It's so close to the city centre with all its attractions and all my favorite shops and cafes are nearby.

What makes this property unique

Ideal for larger families or small groups, I love the space in this apartment. It's huge, bright and sunny and has great views across Edinburgh's rooftops.
