Friendly host gave us all the info we needed. Upscale property is very nice, very clean, very comfortable. It’s on a busy street, but bedroom in back was nice and quiet. Close to everything: sights, food, shopping. We walked everywhere. Highly recommend staying here!

Wonderful, spacious apartment in prime location.

Located in the centre of town and an easy walk or commute to attractions, airport etc, this luxury apartment is better than the photos. Large rooms, well equipped kitchen - the perfect space to enjoy Edinburgh. Extremely helpful hosts too.

A really beautiful house in the best part of Edinburgh

We stayed for 3 nights after having spent a few days in a different part of Edinburgh. The location is wonderful with Stockbridge just down the hill but still right in the heart of the city next to some of the best bars and restaurants. The house was warm and comfortable and very charmingly decorated with just the right touches to make it feel welcoming and individual.

Fantastic!

Albyn Place is a very beautiful apartment. The pictures do not capture the grandness of the apartment; the ceiling height is amazing. Albyn Place is very well equipped for a luxurious stay. The owners are very welcoming and the added touches like the welcome basket were very much appreciated. The Scottish plumbing system takes a bit of getting used to; the main bath and powder room are beautiful. The location is central to all the sights and things to do in Edinburgh.

Convenient Luxury

Photos do not convey the beauty of this stunning Edinburgh flat. Soaring ceilings, intricate mouldings, stylish decor, modern kitchen, and many thoughtful details such as chocolates on the bed and a bottle of Prosecco on the counter. Despite being close to the hustle and bustle of George Street, the bedroom in the back was very quiet. Very private building - did not see or hear another soul the entirety of our stay, We were able to walk to many sightseeing spots and restaurants. Fiona and Craig were lovely and unobtrusive hosts. Would absolutely stay again!

Comfortable stay in a beautiful space

The apartment is just as gorgeous as it looks in the pictures! We felt like royalty. We enjoyed all that space to spread out, including relaxing in the living room, and having a chill dinner in the kitchen. The blackout shutters/curtains were amazingly effective, which was key when you're dealing with 18+ hours of daylight! The heavy doors between the bedroom and the next rooms also did a great job blocking the street noise. The AC also worked just fine in summer weather. A couple notes: The shower is quite small, especially if you're tall. The shower curtain is only hanging from like a 3-foot-diameter ring, so it really closes in on you. The wifi was spotty and only really worked from the living room, not the bedroom where they have the desk. Not recommended if you need to work. Lots of good restaurants within a short walk, and definitely check out the Stockbridge Farmer's Market!
