Hotel Details

Location

Two minutes from Princes Street and the West End tram stop, in a quiet street but steps from the city's main attractions.

The apartments sit on a quiet street in New Town, yet are within 2 minutes' walk of Princes Street and the West End tram stop. Edinburgh Castle is a 10-15 minute walk, and Haymarket Railway Station is 10 minutes on foot. Waverley Station is about 25 minutes' walk or a short tram ride away. The Airlink 100 bus to the airport stops nearby, and the nightlife of George Street is also a 10-minute walk. A small supermarket is 2 minutes away, and a wide variety of pubs and restaurants - including The Fox & Faun - are within a 5-minute walk.

Accommodation

Spacious, modern apartments in a converted whisky-bond building with fully equipped kitchens and comfortable beds.

Each apartment has been renovated to a modern, clean standard with a well-equipped kitchen including oven, hob, washing machine, dishwasher, and microwave. Free Wi-Fi and a flat-screen TV are provided. Rooms are spacious, bright, and feature large windows. The apartments are on the first or second floor with stair access only (no lift). Sofa beds or extra beds can be added on request at extra cost, and travel cots are available. Two-bedroom apartments place bedrooms apart from each other, reducing noise disturbance. The area is quiet despite the central location. The keyless-code entry system makes arriving and departing simple.

Dining

No restaurant on site, but the self-catering kitchen and nearby dining options offer flexible meal planning.

Breakfast is not served, but the fully equipped kitchen allows you to prepare your own meals. A small supermarket 2 minutes away covers basic groceries, and a Sainsbury's is nearby. The surrounding streets have numerous pubs and restaurants - The Fox & Faun (0.5 km) is a popular choice for pub food, and Kyloe Restaurant & Grill (0.5 km) offers steaks. Many other eateries such as The Voyage Of Buck, O'Briens Irish Sandwich Bars, and Roots Deli and Salad Bar are within a 5-minute walk.

Wellness and Leisure

There is no spa, pool, or gym on site; however, the central location provides easy access to Edinburgh's leisure and cultural attractions.

The property does not have a swimming pool, spa, or fitness centre. For leisure, Edinburgh Castle (10-15 minutes walk), Princes Street Gardens, and the Royal Mile are all within comfortable walking distance. The nightlife district of George Street is 10 minutes away, and the quiet street allows for a restful evening after exploring the city.
