Royal Mile Mansions Apartment was a classy way to stay. The accomodations were just what we were looking for to celebrate a friend's birthday in the city. Kitchen was stocked with appliances, cookware, espresso machine, etc. All amenities were functioning, though the wi-fi wasn't as fast as I'm used to. Location was absolutely prime; the Royal Mile is the heart of Edinburgh's tourism circuit, always pumping with the energy of people travelling from all over the world supported by the liveliness of edinburgh's local nightlife scene.

Holyrood House, Parliament, Edinburgh Castle, Mary King's Close, The theatre district, Princes Street Garden & the Walter Scott Monument...everything was close at hand.

I would recommend the Royal Mile Apartments to anyone that can...

We put on our bath towels, coats and hats and still couldn't sleep. The landlord are irresponsible. It was the single worst thing that happened on our trip...
Read moreThis flat is fantastic. Very roomy. Very comfortable. The location cannot be better, right in the heart of Old Town on the Royal Mile. Great views. Third floor but it has a lift. Secure building so no worries there. The management was accomidating and friendly. Be advised that it's in the town center, so yes there is traffic noise but what do you expect? One last thing, there were no basic spices, salt, pepper etc. Would...
