This apartment could not have been better located, right on the Royal Mile and close to everything Edinburgh has to offer. A wonderful old building with a rich history. We found that tour groups were often gathering outside the door to be told of the building's features and history. It's not accessible - the staircase is steep as promised in the description. The apartment itself is beautifully decorated, smaller than imagined but with an amazing feature bed. Our one slight disappointment is that the fire in the images was not a real fire. There was a great heating system so we were never cold but it lacked some of the cosiness we anticipated. They are great champions of Scottish produce from their toiletries to gorgeous stoneware and offer of complimentary ice cream from the shop downstairs. Overall it did the job was amazingly located and came with some quirky features! I would recommend it to be in the heart of Edinburgh!
