The flat is only blocks from the main meeting area for walking tours and its near Waverly train terminal and many touristy restaurants and pubs. If you to visit during the 'Tattoo' season, plan for transportation to be challenging, especially during evenings due to the Castle stairs—performers enter the Tattoo through the stairs and guests can enter via the stairs after. The stairs are so close that you can almost touch and definitely to talk with performers and visitors as they pass by the three windows on the stairs side. ##### David Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Victoria Anne Marie 27 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, communication All good. But could do with updating. ##### Victoria Anne Marie Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Saira 5 Aug 2024 Liked: Amenities Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Too many broken things in the house, none of the doors locked or closed properly. Its a very old property, it was definitely convenient but they can do so much improvement. Beds were so uncomfortable. Location was great ##### Saira Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Liza 18 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, communication Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities I'll start by saying we loved the location-very walkable to many Edinburgh sites & fun restaurants. It was cool to look out the dining room window & see Edinburgh Castle. The apartment itself needs some work, it's a little shabby. The beds are small & not very comfortable. The shower has great water pressure, but was missing a shower door so the whole bathroom got misty wet. The bathroom floor/shower grout is in bad shape too. The apt has nice light ..but I'd say the pictures are a little misleading. This is an old apartment, with aging IKEA furnishing that needs a little fixing up to match the images that are shown online. ##### Liza Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donna 9 Jul 2024 ##### Donna Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Village Hotel Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Village-Hotel-Edinburgh.h9131632.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Edinburgh Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Novotel-Edinburgh-Park.h1781324.Hotel-Information) > > [Kimpton Charlotte Square by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Kimpton-Charlotte-Square-Hotel.h571654.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express - Edinburgh City Centre by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Edinburgh-City-Centre.h1088215.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh - Leith Waterfront by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Edinburgh-Leith-Waterfront.h519940.Hotel-Information) > > [voco Edinburgh - Royal Terrace by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Voco-Edinburgh-Royal-Terrace.h4895.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Edinburgh by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Edinburgh.h3516.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Edinburgh Central Queen Street](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Edinburgh-Central-Queen-Street.h4924301.Hotel-Information) > > [Moxy Edinburgh Fountainbridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Moxy-Edinburgh-Fountainbridge.h64450784.Hotel-Information) > > [Tigerlily](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Tigerlily.h1518105.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Edinburgh.h15710648.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Edinburgh The George by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-InterContinental-Edinburgh-The-George.h20436.Hotel-Information) > > [The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Caledonian-Edinburgh.h4198.Hotel-Information) > > [Fingal - A Luxury Floating Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Fingal.h38753319.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Hotel & Spa, Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Hotel-Spa.h15554.Hotel-Information) > > [voco Edinburgh-Haymarket by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Voco-Edinburgh-Haymarket.h52139644.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis budget Edinburgh Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Edinburgh-Park.h13441598.Hotel-Information) > > [Britannia Hotel Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Britannia-Hotel-Edinburgh.h4533.Hotel-Information) > > [Point A Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Point-A-Hotel-Edinburgh-Haymarket.h37166264.Hotel-Information) > > [YOTEL Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-YOTEL-Edinburgh.h36667881.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-Edinburgh-Haymarket.h4035314.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Edinburgh West End](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Edinburgh-West-End.h19288210.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Edinburgh Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Edinburgh-Airport.h520429.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Edinburgh-Airport.h84014.Hotel-Information) > > [Moxy Edinburgh Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Moxy-Edinburgh-Airport.h31718853.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Edinburgh Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Edinburgh-Airport.h31618511.Hotel-Information) > > [Malmaison Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Malmaison-Edinburgh.h664615.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Edinburgh-Marriott-Hotel.h873944.Hotel-Information) > > [The Balmoral Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Balmoral-Hotel.h9339.Hotel-Information)
