My husband and I stayed in this beautifully appointed apartment during September. The location is lovely and only a short walk to two of the many Edinburgh bus stops. In addition to the convenience Sainsbury and Peter’s Yard downstairs, there is a charming organic co-op nearby. The team at EHA was professional and thoughtful. We look forward to another stay at this apartment and highly recommend EHA.
- Umesh SolankiThis was the 3rd time that we have rented this apartment. Lovely apartment in a very convenient location. Plenty of space for my wife and I and 3 children. Exceptional service from the agents as usual. We will definitely be coming back.
- Diane DarwinThis is our second visit to this apartment and it really is a super place to stay. The apartment itself is spacious, light and very well equipped and the location ideal for all that Edinburgh has to offer. We would recommend this apartment, and EHA, without reservation.
- B HarveyGreat location, gorgeous airy apartment that is very well equipped and really easy to be in. Very conveniently placed for cafes and supermarket too. Love the views and watching the world go by from the big windows. Highly recommend it!
- LeslieWe stayed here the 3rd week of November during Graduation. We had two couples and the flat provided lots of space and privacy. The kitchen was well outfitted but we did need to rewash a few dishes and there was an odor from the garbage disposal. It was nothing that a bit of soap and water didn’t take care of.
We had noise in the front bedroom at night but the back one was a quiet as could be. The living room was quiet and it made us wonder if there was a broken seal in the bedroom window. The bedrooms were clean and comfortable with a choice of pillows.
If you plan to walk around the older parts of Edinburgh you could not ask for a better location. Lots of Pubs close by, great shopping, busses and of course Meadow Walk.
Dealing with Edinburgh Holiday Accommodations was a pleasure. Danika arranged for us to be met at the airport and driven to the Key safe on our way to the flat since we were arriving late. It was a great service. Instructions for all of the appliances were invaluable.
- Mark BaillieThis was the third time that my mum and sister had stayed over the festive period and the apartment is still in excellent condition. It’s very convenient for all amenities and a fantastic base for visiting Edinburgh. The apartment is well set up for anyone in a wheelchair. There were a few difficulties with the NCP car park pass but this did not spoil the stay.
- AnnaBeautiful apartment, spotlessly clean, brilliant location, fantastic views, helpful and friendly check in. We even had a bottle of wine waiting on the breakfast bar on arrival! Would highly recommend and next time we’re in Edinburgh we would definitely try and book here again. Car parking space also a bonus. Couldn’t fault anything about our experience here!
- April ChenGreat location and feels like 5 star accommodation. Well equipped kitchen but it would be great if the basic kitchen cooking needs are provided. Would come back again.
- Michele and NinaThis flat is, in simple words, perfect. Perfect the location, central and very close to the Meadows (a large park whose sights from the wide windows in the house are wonderful, especially during the morning); perfect the furniture we found and, in general, the flat itself, very modern and very well equipped. Finally, perfect the city, Edinburgh, which we fell in love with and which we are going to visit again in the future, hopefully staying again in this accomodation!
