Location location location. Super central, just off the royal mile. The “secret entrance door” is next to Bannermans bar on Niddry street, the spiral stairwell is a bit austere and the flat is on the 6 th floor so you get a bit of keep fit for free. Once inside the flat is lovely and light. Two good double beds,with bedding and towels supplied. View to Arthur’s seat from the bedroom and bathroom.
Some street noise in the evening with the window open but quiet inside with the windows closed . Good value for money and quite spacious, we really liked the place.
Suggest doing Arthur’s seat walk, visiting the zoo ( bus cost £8.50 return from process street for a family of 4 ) and the Scottish museum . We got a pizza delivery from dough pizza the first night which was great for tired kids.
