Looking for a cheap and central located place to stay, when visiting Edinburgh? You have found it!…read moreThis apartment has 3 different bedroms, suiteblie for couples as well as families. The possibilities are endless, and with pubs, supermarkets and several restaurants in the street right outside the front door, you can both eat out or make some delicious dinner in the apartments kitchen. If you are a shopaholic, Princes Street is just a 10 minutes walk away. Edinburgh Castle is also just 10 minutes away, if you are the more "old buildings" type. 10 minutes the opposite way you can find "The Meadows" a lovely and big park perfect for relaxing or jogging. It's extremely necessary to stop by Princes Street Gardens. This is the PERFECT place to enjoy a fresh lunch or a ice cream, if the sun pops up. The best part with the apartment is the owner. This is a lovely lady who is more than willing to help you with your stay. There do not exist something called problems. If I'm visiting Edinburgh again, I would love to stay here again.

We went as a group of 8 people. The apartment was really nicely decorated and comfortable. Despite…read morebeing right on Dalry Road you couldn't really hear much traffic or noise at all. If you come by car as we did, you can park on the lane around the corner, free of charge (with the barrier card that you get on arrival). Was very convenient. The walk to the centre was about 15 mins but there is a bus stop right outside if you need it. There is also a large-ish co-op under 5 mins walk away if you need to buy food stuffs. Overall a lovely weekend and a superb apartment. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect! After a…read morelong road trip around Ireland and Scotland, my husband and I wanted to stay somewhere cozier than a hotel before flying home. StayCity Edinburgh West End Aparthotel was fantastic!!! Check in/out was so easy; the apartment was stunning, spotless, and HUGE (hardwood floors, glass/tile showers, expansive kitchen, balcony); there was a washer and dryer inside our apartment; the apartment was completely soundproof; the location is walking distance to all the best sights/shops; and there is underground parking available (for an extra fee of $15 USD/12 GBP/night). The best part? You get all of that for $150 USD/120 GBP/night! Such a great price for these accommodations. We will definitely stay here again next time we're in Edinburgh. Thanks for a great stay, Staycity!

This place is in a great neighborhood if you're new to Edinburgh. It's a 15 minute walk to the…read moreRoyal Mile, and has a drugstore, supermarket, pound shop, and cafes. It's also about a 7 minute walk to Haymarket train station, which is much smaller and less chaotic than Waverly. Having said that, I had a few issues with the suite during our weeklong stay. This serviced apartment has no service. Linens are not changed, garbage not emptied, toilet paper and soap not replaced. The bathroom was too dimly lit to perform basic tasks like put on makeup, shave, or floss. The bathroom sink was too small to wash your face in without flooding the floor. The heated towel rack didn't work and was too small. The shower stall was almost comically impractical. The half-door caused a major flood with every shower. There was no shelf, so all our shower stuff sat on the stall floor. Because the soap was constantly sitting in water, it made the floor slippery, and there were no grab bars in case of a fall. Constantly bending to reach my shower stuff was just annoying for me, but would be a real problem for an older person. Miscellaneous issues: the suite windows would open only a few inches. The smoke alarm went off every time we made toast. I was told that our suite was equipped for four people, but it was cramped and frustrating for just three of us. I had to ask the front desk to remove a few chairs to make some space. I sense that the managers were trying to squeeze more people into the room than reasonable. The space was clearly suited for two people, no more. The beds were six inches apart and took up most of the bedroom. The only clothing storage was an armoir with six hangers. The ironing board and broom were jammed behind the bathroom door. There was no room for our suitcases. Lockers are available downstairs for an extra fee, though it seems kind of cheap to charge a guest extra for the inconvenience of taking an elevator down to a storage room to get their coat. It's a shame because it really is a lovely suite; it just needs to be more sensibly planned out. In closing, I would recommend this place for singles or couples who are physically fit, have no luggage, avoid grooming, don't shower, and hate toast.

We stayed at Old Town Chambers for three nights in Edinburgh. The location could not be better…read more It's located right on the Royal Mile in the middle of all the action and between the Castle and Royal Palace. We had a two bedroom suite which had a kitchen and laundry and a spacious living room. The room was a bit of a maze to get to but we eventually figured it out. It was also in the back so there was absolutely no street noise. Service was friendly and there's an on site restaurant where we had breakfast daily. They also have a patio on the Royal Mile which is excellent for people watching. I would absolutely recommend staying here.

stayed back in 2019. Great location near the castle and so many pubs and restaurants and too many…read moreother attractions to list. We had a suite with 3 bedrooms. It was basically a high-end apartment like you would find in NY. High quality finishes. We did not have a car and I would assume parking one could be a bit of a challenge. We walked up the hill from the train station to get there. In hindsight, id take a taxi. Friendly staff.. The only issue and it was not their fault was the drunk guy singing a Bob Marley song at 2 AM in the close under our windows. (no woman, no pride. A classic) LOL! They politely asked him to go perform in another venue.. judging by recent reviews/pics, the place may be showing its age a bit, but it was excellent back in 2019.

Each bedroom has en suite shower room plus an extra family bathroom off the hall. Excellent hosts were easy to contact and responded quickly before and during our stay, also contacted us a few times to check we were enjoying our 10 day break. Flat easy 10-15 min walk to Royal Yacht Britannia, shops, bars, restaurants, 24 hr supermarket and park. There were plenty of car parking spaces on site but frequent reliable buses day & night meant a car was not necessary to explore the city and local area. The hosts supplied a generous welcome pack and plenty of toiletries, kitchen consumables & fluffy towels, tourist information etc. Situated on the Forth estuary, with distant views of the 3 famous bridges - including the new Queensferry Crossing, the superb view changes constantly, I stood on the balcony for hours. Comfortable shoes essential to explore Edinburgh on its many levels.

Nice, spacious apartment to stay at. It's perfect for a big family to stay at. Although, with how…read morehuge the space is and it was just 3 of us, it was quite scary sometimes. Or maybe it was just me and my imagination. I didn't like one painting on the hallway in our room though. It was creepy and bloody red. I didn't like that they don't clean properly too. Also, the bathroom is so far away from the main bedroom. The staffs at the reception were nice though. And, the location of the hotel was good and near the train station. Also, the rooftop is a much visit to see a 360 view of the city.

The Suites are gorgeous - clean and modern and efficient. Our 3-bedroom suite had a spacious living room, dining area overlooking North Bridge, and a small but perfectly serviceable kitchen. The bedrooms are spacious yet cozy, with nice linens & plenty of space for your gear. For 3 people (one couple and one single), the price was right - less than 2 hotel rooms would have cost, and we got so much more. We ate a variety of meals in: breakfast, some lunches, one dinner. Shopped for groceries at the nearby Sainsbury or only slightly farther away Tesco. So nice not to have to run to a restaurant anytime we were hungry. Reception staff is helpful and will guide you to where you need to go. Highly recommended for a stay in Edinburgh if you want the flexibility and comforts of home, while still being centrally located (just 2 blocks from Waverly Street Bridge and the train station). Esp. good for families, as there's way more space than a hotel room or two. Another plus: it's located about 1 minute walk from Calton Hill, a lovely little hillside park well worth a visit for a pleasant walk, interesting monuments, and outstanding views of Edinburgh. Howie's just up the street is a good restaurant for dinner, btw. And head up North Bridge for a wide selection of cheap eats (which we didn't discover until our last day).

Bf and I decided to spend some time in Scotland while in London on business. After doing a bit of…read moreresearch, I had great expectations for Fountain Court. We weren't disappointed. We arrived to be greeted by a very friendly and helpful man at the concierge. The facility was spotless and our apartment was a quick lift ride above the office. The apartment itself was extremely spacious and really perfect for 2 folks. Again, the space was spotless and the kitchen was completely stocked with all we might need if planning on cooking for ourselves. Additionally there was coffee and tea stocked in the canisters. The bathroom was spotless. I did run out of hot water one morning...most unfortunate in that climate! You'll see instructions for hot water heater, etc in the closet. There were two televisions and a very cozy living space in which to relax. The location couldn't be better as the city centre and many sites are all short walks from the apartments. For folks like myself who dig lengthy walks and runs, Edinburgh has great streets for exploring and even some neat little hilly areas. There are billions of places to eat and drink. Tasco is a quick jaunt around the corner-always cool goods there. And be sure to check out Lock 25, a GREAT pub a few steps down from Tasco(sort of across from the bike shop). The food is great and super meat eater /veggie person friendly. We will happily return to Fountain Court Apartments. We love the UK, but have never dug the weather. Have to wait for crazy heatwaves!
