This apartment was perfect for our 3 week stay in Edinburgh over Christmas and New Year. After a long haul flight it was a real treat to arrive at such cosy accommodation stocked with enough provisions to see us through until we could purchase our own supplies. An unexpected bonus was the fully decorated Christmas tree waiting in the lounge room. The apartment is stylish, homely, very warm and spotlessly clean. The apartment feels very open and spacious with plenty of storage, which we really appreciated given we were travelling with our two teenage daughters and their copious amounts of clothing and makeup. The kitchen is very well equipped making it easy to prepare homemade meals. The apartment's central location made it ideal for exploring the city and surrounding areas. Despite being close to Princes Street, the street is relatively quiet and doesn't form part of a main bus route, which is a real bonus considering the number of buses that run through Edinburgh. We found plenty of restaurants, cafes and shops in the local area. For eateries, nearby Broughton St seemed to be a less touristy alternative to Princes St or the Old Town. 'Crombies of Edinburgh' is a really good butcher located on Broughton St and 'The Ox' pub on the corner of London St does a really good Sunday Roast. Veronique was an excellent host and she even left an unexpected surprise at our door on Christmas morning. She responded very quickly to any queries and made the booking process very smooth. We wouldn't hesitate to book this accommodation again for future stays in Edinburgh.
