Great space that allowed us to cook and relax at the end of the night. Very centralized location where it was easy to walk, catch the tram or a taxi. Check in was very simple and we got details from the property manager, Karen, the day prior. Thank you for a fantastic stay!

Lorna is a wonderful host and we enjoyed immensely our vacation in this spacious Stafford Street property in Edinburgh. The apartment is beautifully appointed, with comfortable beds and has a great shower, always something we appreciate
The property is in a great location, close to two great restaurants (La Piazza & Dine) and the local Sainsbury’s for your essentials.
The castle, grass market, royal mile and princes street are all within 15 minutes of the property and the green tour bus can be boarded in Charlotte Square.
You will not be disappointed with relaxing at this property
