THE BOTANIST APARTMENT EDINBURGH OLD TOWN 2 BEDROOM LIFT PARKING, Edinburgh

The apartment sits in a quiet pocket of the university district, yet the Royal Mile is literally one minute away via a historic lane. Edinburgh Waverley station is a 15-minute walk, and the National Museum of Scotland is less than 1 km. Edinburgh Castle is 2 km, and the University of Edinburgh is 11 minutes on foot. Edinburgh Airport is 10 km away. The area is highly walkable for main attractions, and several restaurants and cafés are within a 5-minute walk.

This apartment offers two separate bedrooms - the main bedroom can be either a superking or two singles (choice after booking), and the second bedroom has a double bed. Both have private bathrooms: the main bathroom has a shower over the bath with a hand-held shower head, and the en-suite has a shower cubicle. Free toiletries are provided. The kitchen is fully equipped with a stovetop, refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, microwave, toaster, kettle, and all cookware and utensils. A washing machine and a clothes airer are available for laundry. The living area has a seating area with a flat-screen TV, dining table, and tea and coffee making facilities. The entire apartment is carpeted, has heating, and offers mountain views. No balcony is available. Room choice tip: road-facing rooms are generally quiet, but those wanting extra peace can be reassured by the quiet immediate surroundings.

The property itself does not have a swimming pool, spa, or gym. For outdoor leisure, free hiking trails and a golf course (within 3 km) are accessible. The surrounding area also offers boating, kayaking, and canoeing opportunities. These activities are off-site and free to access.

Wi-Fi is free across all areas. Free private parking is available on-site but must be reserved in advance - there is one allocated space in the ground-floor garage, large enough for a normal SUV. An additional reasonably priced indoor car park is a few minutes' walk away if a second car is needed. The property has a lift to the second floor and stairs. Check-in is from 16:00 to 20:00 with a concierge meeting, and checkout is at 11:00. Luggage storage is not on-site, but Waverley Station offers paid left luggage facilities. The apartment is non-smoking throughout, and pets are not allowed. Accepted payment methods include American Express, Visa, Diners Club, JCB, Maestro, and MasterCard.
