My husband and I as well as my 78 year old parents stayed in Paul's Royal Mile apartment on the second floor for 5 nights. This is a great apartment in the perfect location, but please see my comments about the stairs at the end of this review if you are traveling with young children or adults with less than perfect mobility.

The apartment is newly renovated and absolutely beautiful and immaculately clean with extremely comfortable beds and in the best location with a view looking onto the Royal Mile just a couple of blocks from Edinburgh Castle. Perfect amenities (Paul even provided milk, juice, croissants, and candy on our arrival). Quiet at night and great wifi Internet. Staying in this apartment is like staying in a five star hotel and very comfortable for 4 adults. EXCEPT that the apartment is up two flights of medieval era, uneven stone, narrow, circular stair case. Stairs from ground to first landing has a handrail, but stairs from first floor landing to second floor door of the apartment does not have a handrail.
