NICOLSON STREET TWO BEDROOMS, Edinburgh

This apartment sits on Nicolson Street, one of Edinburgh's most central and highly-rated areas (location score 9.3). Edinburgh Airport is 10 km away; a bus stop right outside the door provides a direct, easy connection to the airport and city centre. The National Museum of Scotland is only a 700-metre walk, and the Royal Mile is 7-10 minutes on foot. A 15-minute walk brings you into the historic Old Town and Grassmarket. Multiple supermarkets, including Lidl and Sainsbury's, and a wide variety of restaurants, pubs and cafés (from The Green Mantle Pub to Soul Sushi) are all within a 5-minute radius, making car-free exploration effortless.

The apartment comprises 2 separate bedrooms, a living room and a modern bathroom with a bathtub and shower, a hairdryer, and complimentary shampoo and shower gel. Both bedrooms have been described as having very comfortable, large beds. The living room is cosy, with a sofa, a large flat-screen TV, and city views including a landmark (Edinburgh Castle). The unit is on the first floor with no lift. Curtains in one review are noted as thin, letting in morning light-pack a sleep mask if sensitive. The heating is effective and the bedrooms are quiet despite the central location, ensuring a restful sleep. The apartment has been recently renovated with a modern, clean interior.

The kitchen is fully equipped for preparing meals, including a hob, oven, microwave, toaster, electric kettle, refrigerator, and a coffee machine (espresso and a tea and coffee maker). Cookware, utensils, and a washing machine are also provided. A dining table is available for eating in. For those who prefer eating out, the immediate area offers a superb range of nearby options: The Green Mantle Pub, Cafe Turquaz, Soul Sushi, Jamrock Jerk UK, Dai Pai, Starbucks, Bburger, and Kalpna Vegetarian Restaurant are all within 0.5 km. A Lidl and Sainsbury's are a few minutes' walk for groceries.

For those seeking outdoor leisure activities, the local area provides access to boating, kayaking and canoeing. The apartment's central location also puts you within an easy walk of Arthur's Seat, the Royal Mile, and the Grassmarket, offering abundant opportunities for walking, sightseeing and exploring Edinburgh's parks and historic streets.
