As noted in my review, this is a very nice penthouse in a nice location. We were 5 adults and the 3 bathrooms definitely were a plus. The owner was soooo helpful to us both arriving and leaving. Her pamphlet in the flat was also full of useful information. I will stay here next time my family is in Edinburgh. P Sundermier, Salem, Oregon

The penthouse is charming, comfortable and convenient. The queen sized beds were just fine, and the kitchen was very well appointed. The elevator was a must for us older types who wouldnt have been able to carry our luggage up that far. There is so much to see and do, three days were not enough. We may have to return!

This was a wonderful property for us to decompress after a hectic couple of weeks of touring the wonders on Northern Scotland. We did spend two nights in the crowded chaotic Edinburgh town centre and it was so nice to get to this spacious apartment, close to all necessary amenities but with out the crowds. I felt sorry for the people below us, as even tho we tried to be quiet, the floors were pretty squeaky!

Nice Spacious Apartment

This was a really nice apartment. Plenty of space and nice for a group of friends travelling together. The kitchen was well supplied. There is an elevator, but there is a 1/3 of a flight of stairs down to it. The location is a little far from most of the tourist attractions, but it worked well for us.

Comfy Edinburgh Penthouse

The apartment was perfect for our party of five. Two of the bedrooms have en suite bathrooms. Our son used the third bathroom in the hall. The living room is very comfortable for a larger group as well. There’s no shortage of dining options nearby. We enjoyed Edinburgh Street Food (basically a food hall) and the Brass Monkey. A little further away but still walkable, we found Di Giorgio, an Italian cafe. Great breakfast and friendly ambiance. The penthouse is also within walking distance of sites like Calton Hill (visible from the balcony), the Royal Mile and Grass Market. Lastly, Fiona and her mum Diana were so friendly and welcoming. They were quick to respond to any questions and they were flexible as our plans changed due to travel delays. They even offered to meet the delivery driver to collect our lost luggage while we were en route from Aberdeen. If we return to Edinburgh, we will try to stay here again.

Five Star Hotell aka VRBO

Fiona’s flat is a lovely, warm and well located place, it feels like a home away from home. She left a note to greet us and also some very special treats, shortbread cookies and tea biscuits. She provided a notebook with instructions about everything we needed to know and recommendations for dining or to experience in Edinburgh. Fiona anticipated our every need with a fully supplied kitchen, bathrooms and guides for the city and country. There were travel guides, maps and pamphlets. The furnishings and decor were very comfortable and personal. I felt like I was staying in a family home. I have some mobility issues, and the lift to the apartment made our stay even nicer. A garage was another plus. I recommend Fiona’s flat with 5 out of five stars!

Stay in City Center apartment

Everything about the apartment was perfect! We were three generations of our small family of four, and everyone had their own spaces. The location is fantastic—an easy walk to Leith Walk and other places. There’s a very nearby convenience store that is…well, super convenient. Having the outside balcony is a huge bonus, with amazing views of the city. Uber works extremely well here, and getting around was easy. We all fell in love with our “home away from home” and the incredible city of Edinburgh.

Utterly Charming Holiday

Is there another place worth staying in Edinburgh? Perhaps, but why look further than this terrific apartment? On a quiet street but mere blocks from a host of delightful resources and activities, this flat is even prettier and nicer than shown in the photos. You have everything you need to prepare for the day or a cozy night in, with a stunning view of the city to enjoy night after night. Fiona is a stupendous hostess, perhaps the top of the list, and our family has rented dozens of places over the years. Don't sleep on this opportunity-but DO sleep in this lovely getaway.

Perfect for the five of us!

We had five adults staying at Fiona place in Edinburgh and it was the perfect retreat for us all. The location is amazing - a short walk from many pubs, markets, and transportation options. Easy access to EDI via the tram, but far enough away to still feel away from the hustle and bustle of big city life. The furniture was very comfortable, the kitchen well appointed, and the views were stunning. Our host, Fiona was great to work with as well. We highly recommend this place and hope to stay there again one day.
