The location was beautiful, it’s right next to the palace. The apartment was so beautiful and well decorated. My children loved reading in the window seats. It was an excellent apartment with an excellent location. The communication was also really great. We received the code to enter early and they also helped with recommending a taxi service to the airport.

Location was absolutely incredible. Very comfortable and clean. Everymorning woke up overlooking Holyrood House. Stunning. Only problem was the 3 flights if spiral staircase that's one had to maneuver up and eventually down with larger suitcases. We were traveling for 15 days. Beyond that wonderful

This place was amazing! We loved the location close to the palace and walking distance to park (Arthur’s seat). My family and I truly enjoyed the location and amenities.

We had a lovely stay at Abbey Strand Apartments. The apartment was very clean and was very well equipped. The bed was very comfortable. Although the apartment is quite small it was a perfect size for us as a couple.
The only negative was that the information regarding check-in wasn’t very clear as to which doors we had to use. We ended up going round by the side of the building through a gate and we were stopped by a woman in a security uniform. She was very pleasant and helped us but this was not ideal and we had to help another party who were checking-in while we were there.

Great location, right at the end of the Royal Mile so you're close to everything but still in a quiet little spot. Beautiful garden and view of the crag overlooking the city. Very well appointed apartments, very clean. Overall our favourite place to stay while on our trip to the UK.

The apartment was beautiful!! Clean, decorated lovely and functional.
The bathrobes provided were an extra nice.
The location was just perfect.
We went to breakfast about a quarter of a mile away.
Quiet, tucked away by the Holyrood house gardens, it was the perfect place to stay.

Easy walk home down slope from city center. Perfect place for Uber drop off and pick up. Comfy bed, and seating. Kitchen had enough. Temp easy to regulate. Hop on off bus stop right out front along with city bus. Super safe for a single woman or lbgtq even at night. Nice views from apt. Lots to do w/I a one block radius. No lift may be an issue for some. But overall great location and stay!

Property itself excellent. Service communication needs work. Expedia didn’t send the confirmation email the day before as stated. This should have enclosed access codes to property. Advised to down load both Expedia and Cheval app - neither could provide missing information that was in absent email. Phone number in app and in property window went to voicemail. Helpful assistant on further telephone call guided us through access and forwarded email.
Seamless service design is essential for good travel experience. Hope this can be improved for next customers as the property and location was excellent

Cheval exceeded our expectations! It was clean, quiet, large, comfortable, and recently renovated. There is a lot to do nearby and everything is walkable. However, it is at the end of the Royal Mile at the bottom of a gentle hill. The good thing is it provides a peaceful night's sleep. The not-so-good thing is that is at one end of the town so you have to walk towards the center of town to do everything.

Clean and tidy, lovely bathroom, however the place can get very noisy in that area

Highly recommend this property. Has the best of both a hotel and a apartment (still had somewhere to store luggage when we check out, umbrellas, lobby to wait for taxis). Great staff (Peter), couldn't be more helpful!

The place is magnificent, congratulations!

Really lovely apartment with great views, in a beautifully-restored historic building. Also, convenient for sightseeing BUT (1) the only access to the apartments was by a narrow, spiral staircase. I understand that it's an old building so not possible to install an elevator, but there should be a very clear warning on the website that this accommodation is NOT disabled-friendly. (2) The apartment was cleaned only once in our 4 day stay. (3) There was never anyone at the Reception. Instead I had to contact another branch of Cheval Apartments in Edinburgh to get assistance.

The location was incredible. Right next to Hollyrood and perfect for a few days in Edinburgh. Well decorated and appointed. The in house laundry a dream. And the gardens out back (chef’s kiss). The only downside was the sliding bathroom door that didn’t want to stay it’s tracks

This is quite a unique property, having the modern finish in an old style building… the location is stunning and looks out to the parliament building, Arthur’s Seat and Holyrood Palace…
It was very comfortable and had everything you could need for a long or short stay … quite luxurious, but we paid a premium rate due to local events being on and high demand for accommodation… would definitely recommend and return when a better price option.
Minor details… little bits of dry veg in the fridge.. details of how to use entry system were not given with booking and when we got into reception no-one there and tried calling the mobile number left, but unanswered. This delayed our entry to the property, having to call the help line again … although they were helpful and able to get us in.

Location is great and the condition of the property is excellent. Haulin suitcases up the narrow stairs is a bit challenging. But overall a great place to stay.

This hotel informed me at 4pm the day before my arrival that the apartment I booked wasn’t available. They offered me a replacement in one of their sister hotel in a different part of the city. Even though the replacement room was excellent, it ruined my plans, as I booked the first property mostly for the proximity with a park. The replacement was in a great part of the city but too busy for the purpose of my stay. Overall a great hotel, friendly and helpful staff, some miscommunication related to booking and payment.

Perfect location, great view over the parliament building and Aurthur's Seat. Right at the gates of Holyrood Palace. Lovely gardens at the rear. Well equipped and comfortable room.

Lovely stay. Very clean, spacious and quiet away from the hustle & bustle of the city centre - but not too far away and within a walkable distance of both the train station and the centre.
2.5
An amazing quiet, secluded place, yet nestled at the end of The Royal Mile and practically in the grounds of Holyrood Palace. We absolutely loved staying here. The room was wonderful, all amenities and modcons and overlooked Arthur’s seat which looked majestic in the distance. Simply wonderful!

Honestly the best place to stay whilst in Edinburgh. Everything was so wonderful and felt like a home away from home. Thank you!

It was the best stay. Staff was amazing, welcoming, everything in mint condition and very comfortable. I can't wait to go back! The only thing I felt was missing was a larger cup and a coffee plunger, as I am not an espresso person.

Beautiful apartments right next to the palace, only a short walk to old town. I love the fact the apartments are so cosy and have everything you need. Fantastic service from the staff. I would choose here every-time
