Stayed here on my first visit to Edinburgh and couldn’t have wished for a better location to experience everything this beautiful city has to offer. Easily explored all of the main attractions on foot including the Tattoo plus so many shops, bars and restaurants and only needed a taxi once mainly because we couldn’t be bothered to walk. I’d say just let your friends book where they want to but when it’s time to meet up tell them to meet you here and just see the looks on their faces. Brilliant apartment and location and I’ll be back next August for sure!
