Stayed in apartment 11/1 as part of a business trip to Edinburgh in May 2012. The apartment was spectacular, very clean and extremely central to old town Edinburgh, the castle and royal mile. The hosts were generous providing a basket of goodies and taking the time to meet us on arrival to answer any questions we might have had about... More

We wanted to stay somewhere child-friendly and central and could not have asked for a better location. The apartment (11/1) is perfect - it looks wonderful, is spotless and was also extremely well kitted out. It met all the ideal requirements for a self-catering break - comfort, warmth, a welcome basket of essentials and goodies, comfy beds, quiet in spite... More

My 12 year old son and I recently stayed in Apartment 16/4 and cannot praise it highly enough. It was well laid out and felt very spacious. The decor and furnishings were lovely - traditional and homely. The cosy feel of the apartment made us feel very relaxed throughout our stay. The location was first class, literally next door to...

Very nice short stay in (16/4) an ideal location between the Royal Mile and Edinburgh Grassmarket area. Nicely finished apartment suitable for 4, much nicer than getting 2 hotel rooms for the 4 adults staying. Well equipped apartment with nice welcome basket, and full of information booklets, maps, brochures, local menus etc. Comfortable beds and good water pressure in shower.... More

we went to ABC Apartment after reading all the reviews in Tripadvisor and I can assure that all is true. We stayed at apartment 11/1, very close to the castle and the other attractions. Even if Moira told us that it was the first time a family with 2 little children (4 and 7 years old) stayed in the apartment... More

After reading all the positive reviews here on TripAdvisor, when booking our “Bucket List” trip to Scotland, we reserved Apartment by Castle (16/4 – Johnson Terrace). It is ideally located at the base of the Edinburgh Castle and at the head of the Royal Mile, was large enough for myself and tall husband and son, is well maintained, and is... More

We stayed the 7th to 14th July and to Moira & Eric a big Thank you. The apartment was superb and the location ideal. To sit in the lounge and look out the window at the Castle is what memorable holiday memories are made of. To have a long day sight seeing and to know that you were coming back... More

Moira could not have been more helpful and attentive and the apartment is right bang in the middle of where any visitor to edinburgh wants to be. Lovely welcome pack, plenty of hot water, excellent shower, wi-fi etc etc - everything that we could have hoped for.
