We enjoyed our stay in this apartment. We are a family of 5 with teens. The location is so convenient to everything people love to see and do in Edinburgh. There are fantastic restaurants and cafes right out the front door. A grocery is just a 5 minute walk. We would stay here again. The apartment does require you to go up 5 flights of stairs. However they are large and easy to navigate. We didn’t mind taking our full size luggage up. Rashid was very helpful and quick to communicate about anything we needed.

Everything at this apartment on the Royal Mile was great. Plenty of room, very clean, excellent location, and the host was easily accessible. This VRBO made our visit to Edinburgh a great stop on our tour of Scotland.
5.0 / 5.0
Clean, tidy and well equipped apartment with a fantastic location. Owners were very responsive to queries. Only downside for us was the amount of stairs to apartment (no lift) particularly for older guests.
That said can highly recommend.
5.0 / 5.0
Amazing central location close to attractions and restaurants. The apartment was beautiful and was spacious and comfortable. Great views of the Royal Mile - including a great vantage point to watch the street performers! The host, Shahid, was very nice and helpful and could be contacted if required during our stay. Would absolutely book this apartment again! Only downside is that the sheer number of stairs made it hard work with heavy suitcases. Saying that, we were aware of this before we booked, but it did not deter us!
5.0 / 5.0
This was a perfect location for visiting Edinburgh. Overlooks the Royal mile and is easy walking distance to Edinburgh Castle or the Palace of Holyrood which are at each end. Many of the street performances are right out the window below. Plenty of neat tours to take for Edinburgh of the past. The price is competitive with the hotels, but you get a huge living area, a full kitchen, and two bedrooms with ample roaming around room instead of a cramped hotel

Parliament Square Apartment was the perfect stay for our family of 4. Beautiful apartment, pictures are accurate. A lot of space, full amenities and location is in the heart of everything. Check in was easy and host answered all my questions quickly. I would absolutely stay here again! Thank you for a wonderful stay.
5.0 / 5.0
Spacious, clean and comfortable apartment right on the Royal Mile, across the street from Mary King’s Close and blocks from the castle and train station. This is a fantastic place to stay to explore Edinburgh. Host communication was easy. The stairs are a bit of a challenge with luggage but worth it once you’re settled in. I’d definitely stay here again if we come back, which I hope we do!

Amazing apartment and perfect for our family break to Edinburgh. The weather was not so great but we were able to periodically pop back to the apartment and dry off before heading out again!

We stayed at the Parliament Square flat during the Fringe - Fabulous location!!
Great communication from Shahid, providing clear check-in instructions well ahead of our stay as well as a phone call just after our arrival to make sure everything was OK.
There were also very clear instructions in the flat for how everything worked and what do do with dishes, rubbish etc. on departure - always helps.

4.0 / 5.0
The location was fabulous! Right on the royal mile! The communication with the hosts was wonderful. Very attentive to any questions we had.
Two bedrooms - two beds for my kids and second room with a king bed for us and we shared a bathroom. Great living room where we looked out onto royal mile and people watched and full kitchen.
We dropped off our luggage at the place and then our car at the Radisson parking lot (5 minute or so walk) for the duration of our stay. We conveniently walked everywhere- Edinburgh castle, Arthur’s seat. We did the Mary Kings close directly across from our place.
Enjoy!

This apartment is so comfortable. The living room is really big with two beautiful bedrooms and one bath. It was in the center of things so we could go out and come back and rest. Bravo! Excellent digs!
5.0 / 5.0
We had a great stay in this spacious apartment. The kids enjoyed having their own room and was fun to watch the street performers right outside the window. Very easy to get to nearby attractions and tons of bus/train connections to get to the zoo, beach, etc. Highly recommend for a family stay in Edinburgh.

Right in the middle of everything, but able to get a good night's rest. Loved this property! You will have to climb some stairs, but it is worth it. Would highly recommend.
5.0 / 5.0
This apartment is located right on the Royal Mile next to St Giles Cathedral and is surrounded by shops and restaurants. You will not regret staying here, not only for its location, but because it is a very spacious and beautiful home. The beds are comfortable, living room sofas also comfortable and we appreciated the large bath sheet size towels. The host gives excellent instructions on check in and check out. There is a binder on the coffee table that gives more info. He is also very communicative and responds quickly. We had a wonderful experience!! One last thing…yes, there are a few flights of stairs to reach the apartment but most of old town and Edinburgh is uphill on a rock so if anything, it gave me an opportunity to get into better shape!
5.0 / 5.0
The entire stay from check in to our departure was flawless. Our host was accommodating to our needs.
As a Canadian we have a high standard for our showers. This one was just like home.
This apartment is in the center of the city's attractions. Open your window and you are looking down on the street festival!!
One draw back is the six flights of stairs. But once you are there it is very comfortable and roomy.
I would definitely return to these properties in the future.

A fantastic flat in a great location. Just as pictured and the flat is very spacious .
Great location, easy check in and out process. You won’t regret booking here. We had 4 adults with room to spare , I don’t think all can claim this. Right in the heart of the Royal Mile handy to all pubs- restaurants and main attractions. While busy on the streets during the day it gets quiet at night for a comfortable rest. You won’t be disappointed - this is a highly recommended property in my opinion.
5.0 / 5.0
Beautiful property!
This apartment was beautiful. It was spacious and really nicely furnished. The location is ideal! It overlooks the Royal Mile and is an easy walk to Edinburgh castle. It is located near cafes, pubs and shops. I highly recommend this property.
