Fantastic apartment overlooking the Castle in Edinburgh Well appointed, nice beds, tremendous view. Be warned 103 steps on a spiral staircase. Well worth the view

We had a lovely stay and the apartment was great. The stairs up are not for the faint of heart but my 80 year old mother could do them without issue. Loved the location and would definitely stay there again.

You cannot beat this location. It's just amazing and view of the castle is stunning. People that want to stay need to be prepared for a very difficult climb up a winding staircase to the fourth floor not to mention the initial flight of steps to the building door. If you have a lot of luggage, little kids or a medical condition it's probably something you need to consider. Other than the stairs, the place is amazing!!

Apartment was really clean, had all that we needed for our 5 day stay. Location was fantastic, right near the castle at the top of the Royal Mile. Other than the stairs to get up to the apartment was easy to go anywhere. Now about the stairs...they were no joke....we knew about them and were ready for them on arrival but if you are not fairly fit you may have to pause two or three times going up. other than the stairs

We were not familiar with Edinburgh before booking - but could not have asked for a better location or property quality. We were literally located next to Edinburgh Castle at the top of the Royal Mile. We were able to walk EVERYWHERE we wanted to see, even to the train station and back. Unit was amazing, communication stellar. Just an incredible stay. Thank you so much for really making our first time in Scotland memorable.

Amazing views, especially of Edinburgh Castle. Nice and comfortable apartment. It has everything we needed to live in the heart of Edinburgh. As stated in description, be prepared for the four flights of stairs. But the views are worth it!

Great location and the space was perfect for the four of us. Very close to the castle but not too far from groceries, restaurants or transit.
