Leith Harbour Aparthotel

Aparthotel at 2 Western Harbour in Edinburgh's Leith.

Overview

Ocean Serviced Apartments sits at 2 Western Harbour in Leith, part of Edinburgh's regenerated harbour area, with views over the Firth of Forth from some rooms. It is an aparthotel rather than a hotel in the classic sense: guests get a full apartment with 2 bedrooms, 2 tiled bathrooms, a large living room and a kitchen equipped with an oven, fridge, dishwasher and washing machine. The kitchen opens onto a dining area with table and chairs. Living rooms come with digital TVs, DVD players and comfortable sofas, and there is a DVD library on site.

Around the building, the Royal Yacht Britannia and the Ocean Terminal complex with its shops, cinemas and restaurants are close by. The city centre, including Edinburgh Castle, is described as a 15-minute drive, and buses connect the area to the centre. Parking on site is free, which is a practical plus for anyone arriving by car. Apartments are serviced, with fresh linen and towels provided weekly.

Who It Suits

This place suits families and groups, since family rooms are available and the two-bedroom apartments sleep up to 4 or 5 people depending on the unit. The full kitchens and washing machines make it practical for longer stays where self-catering matters. Free parking helps road travellers, and the lift and garden add convenience. It is not a good match for anyone travelling with a pet, as pets are not allowed, and the walk to Waverley Station is long, so it may not suit travellers who want to be in the centre on foot.
