About this property

Gorgeous Georgian apartment in the heart of Edinburgh's City Centre.

The apartment is beautifully decorated and is packed full of Scottish fabrics, original Scottish paintings and drawings, warm colours and heaps of personality. It's a great base from which to explore Edinburgh on foot, and once you're worn out from a great day of shopping or sightseeing there's a fab kitchen in the apartment and a wood burning stove for a cosy night in. For the more energetic just dump the shopping bags, get the 'glad rags' on and walk a few hundred yards to some of the best bars and restaurants that Edinburgh has to offer. After a few nights here you're almost guaranteed to feel Scottish and you certainly won't want to leave!
You enter the traditional 'shared stair' at pavement level and make your way up the original, stone steps to the apartment door on the 2nd floor (the top). There are two bedrooms; one very large and one large. Both rooms can be set up either as twin beds or double beds (Super King size and King size). The beds are naturally 'Luxury Hotel' standard. The master bedroom has a lovely dressing table with an illuminated magnifying mirror for the ladies.
There is a very well equipped large dining kitchen with oven, hob, microwave and everything you need to cook up a feast! It also includes a dishwasher, washing machine and digital radio.
The Lounge is beautifully decorated and features a wood burning stove and original fireplace. There is wifi, digital cable TV and a Bluetooth speaker for your entertainment and the side board is crammed full of fun board games for a lively night in! There is also a sofa bed available in the lounge for larger groups.
The bathroom is a warm and welcoming room with its large tub, big traditional shower head, stone tiles, warm colours and the all important under floor heating!

Ideal apartment for a family stay

This apartment was ideal for our family, having all we needed and is located close to the centre of Edinburgh. The host was proactive with communication and was very helpful in making arrangements ahead of our arrival. The check-in arrangements worked well and were straightforward. The apartment is attractive inside and made for a very comfortable stay for our family.

Superb apartment in central Edinburgh.

Apartment was very clean and spacious. One of the few with a king sized bed. Main tourist attractions within walking distance. Great pub across the road and wine bar next door. Host was excellent communicator and provided all the food basics and some special treats too. Highly recommended.

Amazing!

Een geweldige locatie en een hele vriendelijke eigenaar. Reageerde snel op berichten. Het huisje was prima. Het enige probleem was dat de bank niet geschikt is voor 2 personen. Dus voor 6 volwassen personen is het niet fijn. Maar verder zou ik het zeker aanraden!

Spacious apartment in great location

A large apartment ideally situated close to Princes Street and the castle. Great communication from the owner. Probably not best suited for anyone with mobility issues. Some minor maintenance issues but these did not affect our stay and the owner is to resolve.

Great location and great host

We absolutely loved staying in this beautiful flat on our recent stay in Edinburgh. The location was perfect, a short walk to old town to take in all the events going on during Fringe but tucked just far enough out that we were able to get a sound sleep. LOCATION: The street it is located on has the cutest shops and restaurants including a fantastic little wine bar below, a bustling café we grabbed breakfast at and a little wine shop and deli for some evening snacks and drinks. If we were staying longer we would have also popped into the florist. There was a Sainsbury’s local right around the corner for basics. There is a tram stop a very quick 2 minute walk from the front door. FLAT: The flat itself is gorgeous and filled with natural light, it is beautifully and comfortably decorated, we loved the large-scale artwork, it felt like we were staying in a boutique hotel. It was also very clean and fresh. The shower was clean with excellent pressure, and the nice deep bathtub would have made a great spot to relax, if there had been time. The beds were very comfortable, especially after a long day of exploring the city. Having a washing machine and a dishwasher were appreciated features, the last thing I want to do on a vacation is wash dishes and the washing machine was an excellent feature for us on a multi-city tour. There were also tons of interesting titles to read and games to play if you’re looking to spend more time in the flat during your visit to Edinburgh.

Cozy Edinburgh City Apartment

Our apartment was bright and airy. We were greated with fresh cut flowers, bread, milk and butter-nice treat. Our beds were clean and comfortable. Our stay was for four nights. Our apartment was very close to all of the downtown Edinburgh attractions. A two minute walk to the tram.

The nicest apartment I’ve ever stayed in!

After climbing three flights of stone steps we were delighted to find the most beautiful, spacious apartment, really close to the castle. It’s an old stone building with high ceilings and the flat is beautifully decorated with everything you need for a fantastic stay. It’s so close to everything including restaurants and shops. I Hope i get to stay here again!

Lovely stay

Really pleased with the accommodation and felt it good value. Close enough to all . sites and amenities but in a quiet area, away from the crowds. Not having to buy things like washing up liquid, loo rolls, milk, tea and coffee, etc were a bonus. The property was easy to find and getting through the front door was hassle free. Public transport is about 100m away from the flat and is frequent

Awesome flat!

So nice and homey, yet nice and updated with all the amenities you need. Great location; very clean and close to restaurants & sites. We loved the flat overall! The bread, butter, coffee, fruit & sweets were an extra plus! Just an FYI: Would not recommend for anyone with physical limitations: My 80 year old Mom is quite spy, but the 3 sets of steps were a wee bit difficult.

About the host

Hosted by Maciej

Host profile image
I've been involved with property in Edinburgh for 12 years and have always loved Georgian and Victorian architecture with all it's grandeur! I have renovated and upgraded many original Edinburgh properties but the 'Snug' is my first Holiday Apartment and I absolutely love it. I live a short walk down the hill from the apartment in an old townhouse in Stockbridge with my wife Rebecca and our 2 little boys. If I ever need a quiet sit down I sneak off to the Snug and hide!! My father in law is a famous Irish poet (Michael Longley) and my sister in law is a well known Scottish/Irish painter and most of the books are Michael's collections and the art on the walls are Sarah Longley originals or sketch work from her bigger collections. Also, if you'd like a kilt made whilst you're here - my brother in law is a kilt maker!!

Why they chose this property

The West End of Edinburgh is a hidden gem of a place, full of boutique shops, delis, coffee shops, proper pubs and restaurants and it just so happens to be less than 5 minutes walk from Princes' Street. It's such a great location that as soon as I saw the apartment I knew it had to be shared! Doing interiors is one of my passions and I was able to cut loose on the William Street Snug with Georgian colour schemes and gorgeous Scottish tartans and tweed textiles and original Georgian walls are ideal for hanging great art!
