I stayed here for my partners birthday, as soon as we came by we could drop our luggage off before check in! Which gave us a chance to have a look around on the day we flew in. I would also recommend using 'city cabs' as they So reliable! We managed to get to the city centre within a 10/15... More

Very well presented apartment. Friendly staff - always helpful. Good location -10 minutes walk to Princes Street. Perfect for a family as we have 9 year old and 7 month old. Eldest had her own room with TV whereas if we went for the hotel option we would have been almost twice the cost as we would have needed 2... More

We had a fantastic time in Edinburgh capped off with our fab penthouse appt, great facilities, kitchen over looked the castle sitting room appartments and the canal. The appartment was spotless. Little downside was that there were several groups who were slightly noisy! The staff here are excellent really helpful, I would stay here again!

These Apartments are furnished to a high standard and are very close to the main attractions of the town we walked from the Station (about 20 mins) and found it all very welcoming. There is a local supermarket if needed for breakfast things and lots of Restaurants locally. Now for a few minor quibbles the TV seemed quite complicated with... More

Apartment: We stayed in a 2 bedroom, ground-floor apartment. It had a nicely equipped kitchen. High-chair was provided (requested when booked) for baby, which worked out great. As requested a travel cot was also provided. Nice dining area/lounge. Clean bathroom and soap/shampoo provided. Negatives: The floors were so squeaky and loud. The apartment in general was loud, we could hear... More

I arrived along with 3 friends late on Thursday night following a flight from Bristol. We'd been sent the instructions to enter as reception closed. We'd organised a Tesco delivery prior to arrival which had been taken to our apartment No 37 - they'd even put our wine in the fridge to cool. The apartment had everything we needed. Leaving... More

Beautiful appartments, with everything and then some that you need for a perfect stay. Service top notch appartments functional beautiful and reasonable. Views overlooking canal and beautiful resteraunts walking distance. 5 mins from town also so need need for taxis. Fantastic for family and friends and much nicer than a hotel room.

Spacious apartment, excellent facilities, amazing view. The only issue was the location, we did have to use a taxi as our main source of transport to get to the city centre. We would definitely return.

Spacious, modern, clean & comfortable...wonderful stay, excellent price...wonderful location & being able to use parking on-site a real plus point. I would 100% recommend these apartments - the rooms are a good size & the balcony a real treat. Definitely deserves the excellent feedback they have received!
