Stunning Apartment Close To Edinburgh City Centre, indoor pool and garden

This accommodation is the definition of luxury; it is fresh, modern and stylish whilst retaining the warmth of a home from home. The apartment is spacious, well suited to accommodating large groups and furnished with beautiful, hand-selected pieces.

The large living room is comfortable and a great space for entertaining as it houses a 50” Plasma TV, and a Blu-ray DVD/CD player. It opens onto a contemporary kitchen which is built to provide a trouble-free cooking experience with a cooker/oven, microwave, dishwasher and new washer/dryer machine. The cupboards are even stocked with crockery, cutlery and those all important pots and pans.

The bedrooms offer the excellent respite, comprising of two twin bedrooms, which can all be converted into king-size beds if necessary and a double master bedroom with en suite. Each bedroom has been carefully designed and furnished to ensure you have the best night’s sleep. All home comforts, including towels, a robe (for the swimming pool) and bedding are provided free of charge. There is also a second bathroom with a full bathroom suite including a shower.

For the ultimate in relaxation after a long day discovering the very best sights and sounds in Edinburgh head straight to the leisure facilities, exclusively for James Square residents. It consists of a swimming pool, basic weight machines, extra showers and bathrooms.

There is a rooftop terrace to enjoy summer barbecues and the stunning views of Edinburgh, as well as a rooftop conservatory for those colder, winter nights to have the pleasure of enjoying the majestic view all year round. Secure, private car parking is also available for a car.

Little gem near city centre
Lovely well appointed apartment, nicely furnished., all ready and made up for our stay. Had everything we needed except no shower gel - that would have been a nice touch. Well equipped kitchen and utensils, lots of towels (for apartment and pool). Within walking distance of city centre and nearby tram stop which was really convenient. Met house keeper who explained all workings out to us and correspondence with the owner was spot on - great communication & prompt replies to my queries.

Lovely flat but some communication niggles
The flat is nice. Though fourth bedroom has no window which I would have preferred to know for the high price point. Audrey the property manager was lovely and very helpful. However, communication with the owner could have been better and was somewhat off putting. The email about check in process seemed unnecessarily hostile - long paragraphs about timing and property respect which isn’t always required for all parties. Further, we booked for the pool mainly and we did not know it has to be booked until this email. No spaces left when we arrived. Pretty disappointing. Finally, I negotiated check out at 11am instead of the stated 10am in email - please note on VRBO standard check out is 11am! This was granted somewhat grudgingly. I wouldn’t have mentioned except that Audrey turned up at 10am anyway as she hadn’t been told by the owner. I see other reviews have mentioned similar. Over all not an unpleasant stay but see points above.

Stunning Apartment Close to Edinburgh City Centre
This lovely apartment was ideal for our multi-generational family on nine consisting of 6 adults, a 4-year old, a 2-year old and an infant (almost 8 months old). The owner, Beverley, was extraordinarily warm and welcoming from the moment we booked this VRBO, and she and her on-site manager, Audrey, were consistently available, communicative, helpful, and eager to make our stay in Edinburgh special. The accommodations (4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a large living room/dining room area, and a well-stocked kitchen were perfect - our beds were arranged to our request, and everything was very clean and comfortable. The washer/dryer were handy for our messy children and it was super convenient to have a lift and a parking space (even though we did not pick up our rental cars until the day we were leaving for the Highlands). This safe and beautiful location is close to grocery stores, restaurants, and bus lines but we also loved walking from the apartment to the Castle, the Royal Mile, and every center city attraction. We wished we’d had more time in our schedule to use the pool on-site and relax in our VRBO, but we mostly kept busy exploring and touring during our visit. We’ll have to return someday just to bask in the amenities of Beverley’s place, and we absolutely recommend booking this apartment to everyone!

Perfect spot for a group!
Absolutely loved this property! So well appointed, incredibly comfy beds and nice linens. The kitchen is well-stocked to cook for a group. The neighborhood is perfect - great restaurants, very accessible to buses, train adn trams to connect to the rest of the city (just 1 stop from Waverly in the city-center). Cannot recommend this owner enough, either. They are very attentive and accomodating. Exceptional experience!

Well located apartment - some small improvements could make it great
8 of us stayed in the apartment for the last weekend of the fringe. It is well located with shops, cafes and restaurants nearby and excellent access to the bus network. It was about 30 minute walk from the main fringe venues. The apartment is as described with 4 bedrooms, one of which is ensuite, and an open plan living area/kitchen. Two of the bedrooms are fairly small. Beds are comfortable. There is parking for 1 car in a secure car park. The pool in the building is nice. It has to be booked in advance but we didn't have any problems with availability - one thing that is irritating is that only one of the 4 sets of keys has a fob for the pool so if the person with that key is out you can't get into the pool. There were a few niggles which is why I went for 4* - firstly there was a problem with the toilet in the shared bathroom which wasn't refilling after flushing so we had to manually refill the sistern. We reported it early on our first day and, although Audrey came to look at it, it was felt that they couldn't get a plumber in before the end of our trip - none of the windows have proper window coverings. There are venetian blinds but they don't block the light so it was very light in all the bedrooms from about 6am. For a fraction of what we paid for our 3 night stay, blackout blinds could be fitted which would make it a lot more comfortable for guests who might want to sleep in.

A long weekend at the Fringe
We have stayed three times at this apartment as a group of eight friends. The forth bedroom is a rather confined with limited storage but for a short period of time it’s fine. Overall the apartment is great. P.S. There. Was a large circular pouffe in the corridor this visit. We’re not really sure what it was for apart from being a trip hazard, especially in the dark. We enjoyed our stay.

Great apartment for large groups in Edinburgh
The apartment was as advertised - with 4 bedrooms, 2 baths and a large sitting room and kitchen. The local property manager Audrey met us in person after a challenging travel day and responded quickly to a couple of questions we had. We took advantage of the washer and dryer, which worked great and it was very convenient being within walking distance of the Haymarket station for excursions and travel into the center of the city. It was also easy to get Ubers/Cabs when necessary. Lots of good restaurant options within walking distance and a very quiet and secure apartment building with very nice tenants. The only complaint we had was communication with the property owner, Beverley, was challenging and we didn't get Audrey's contact info until the day before arrival, which made us nervous. We did not use the pool but one of our guests said the rooftop sitting area was very nice.
