Grassmarket Apartment, Sleeps 4

2-bedroom apartment in Edinburgh's Old Town that sleeps 4.

Overview

This is a two bedroom apartment on the third and top floor of a building in the Grassmarket, in the Old Town. It sleeps up to four people, with one bathroom and a kitchen, so it works as a self catering base rather than a hotel room. The rear bedroom looks up towards Edinburgh Castle, and the front looks out over the open space where the street activity happens.

The position is the main draw. The Grassmarket itself is a minute away on foot, the Royal Mile about 3 minutes, and the castle about 4. Waverley station is roughly a 12 minute walk, though that is a straight line estimate. A washer, refrigerator, microwave, internet and onsite parking are listed. The host states that prices include all fees with no hidden charges, and that stag, hen and party groups are not accepted.

Room Types

Who It Suits

It suits a family or two couples sharing, since the two bedrooms and private kitchen give everyone separate space and the option to cook or wash clothes. Travellers arriving by car may also find it practical, as onsite parking is listed. It works well for anyone who wants to be in the Old Town within walking distance of the main sights. It does not suit pet owners, since pets are not allowed, and the host explicitly rules out stag, hen or party groups, so celebrations of that kind need somewhere else.
