About this apartment rental
This spacious top-floor apartment offers comfortable accommodation for up to 6 guests, with 3 well-appointed bedrooms. The double bedroom features a double bed, the master bedroom has a king-size bed and en-suite, and the third bedroom includes two single beds. The master bedroom also provides ample storage, perfect for stowing away all your shopping and souvenirs.
A second bathroom includes both a bath and shower, ensuring a relaxing experience after a day of exploring. The open-plan living and dining area is ideal for entertaining guests or giving children plenty of space to play. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need, and the apartment’s skylight windows and hard flooring create a bright, inviting atmosphere filled with natural light.
Located on the top floor, the apartment offers peace and quiet at night, and stunning daytime views from your own private balcony. No need to worry about stairs, as there is an elevator to take you up from the ground floor—though once inside the apartment, a flight of stairs leads up to the main landing and corridor connecting all rooms.
Important note: The building features an elevator to the 4th floor, but a small flight of stairs inside the apartment must be climbed to reach the main living area.
Our check-in method is simple and convenient: Self-check-in is the only option, with the key securely stored in a key safe at the property.
Parking is not offered by us but you can find paid public parking in nearby streets.
The apartment's location is unbeatable. Edinburgh's famous Royal Mile is just a short walk away, along with a wide range of attractions within 15 minutes, including Edinburgh Castle, St Giles’ Cathedral, Arthur's Seat, and plenty of historic sites, whisky tastings, bars, eateries, and shops.
Please note a security deposit registration will need to be completed prior to arrival in order to receive the codes for check-in, no money is actually charged but there is a pre-authorization of 1 euro, this is not applicable for Airbnb bookings.
Please note: a Visitor Levy set by the local council applies to overnight stays in this area and is included in your total booking price. In Edinburgh this is 5% of the accommodation cost per night, applied to the first 5 nights of your stay. It appears as a separate line in your price breakdown — there is nothing extra to pay on arrival.

Great place and location. It was loud late at night. The partying went on until 3am a few nights of our stay. Otherwise was a perfect place.

My family loved the Penthouse apartment! The location was excellent, we were so close to everything in Old Town. The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed during our stay. The beds were very, very comfortable! So much so I had a hard time getting my family up to explore the city. Also the communication with the property managers was excellent! We would highly recommend the apartment!Thank you for a wonderful stay in Edinburgh.

What a fantastic location and who would have thought you could enjoy a rooftop patio in February in Scotland? But we did!
6 / 10Average·Jun 2025
The rooms are as pictured and the location was in the heart of it all.The place was comfortable but I would not call it a penthouse (it was an attic conversion) and would not call it luxury.I would say it’s cozy and convenient.We had to go up 5 flights of stairs which was ok- the smell in the stairwell was not. The carpet has seen its better days. I am ok with patina, but I was expecting a higher level of quality.For the same price , we could have stayed in a ritzy hotel, which was disappointing. Also, a trend of only 1 roll of TP per bathroom seems to be the norm in vacation rentals in Scotland, that wasn’t enough for 6 people over 3 days.It was my first time there and so I based my decision on the description and pictures.I would recommend it at a price point that reflects the overall experience, not as it was presented. I would not have paid as much for this place had I’d known the full picture.
