Portsburgh Square is a fantastic location for any visit to Edinburgh but particularly during the Edinburgh Festival. The Usher Hall, the Traverse, the Festival Theatre and the Kings Theatre, to name but a few, are all less than a 15 minute walk away.
I was a bit concerned that, being so central, it might be noisy but absolutely not. We weren't at all disturbed by traffic noise or any other. It's very attractive with flats set round a central courtyard.
The flat itself is quite spacious with plenty of room to put up the sofa bed in the living room. The shower is good and there's room for 3 sets of toiletries in the bathroom.
We only had breakfast in the flat but there was plenty of crockery and saucepans and generally all you would expect in a kitchen including matching sets of wine glasses, water glasses and mugs of all sizes.
The thing which I thought made it quite special was all the pictures throughout the flat. From misty Scottish Glens to vibrant little oil paintings of scenes of Edinburgh and others too numerous to mention.
