About this property

Frederick Street Apartment - sleeps 11 guests in 5 bedrooms

A newly listed lovely 2nd floor spacious apartment with 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms (2 ensuites) suitable to be let by families or groups of friends. The key attraction to the apartment is its large communal living room kitchen where everyone can feel at home.

The apartment is in the heart of the city, moments away from the main attractions such as the Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle and the National Gallery. Frederick Street itself offers some lovely restaurants and bars, and in links on to Thistle Street, a small hidden street full of quirky restaurants, bars and shops. Fredrick Street also links on to the main shopping streets of Edinburgh, George Street and Princess Street, making it the perfect base for exploring tourist attractions but also for a shopping weekend or a weekend enjoying the many many amazing restaurants Edinburgh offers.

The property is also an easy stroll from local buses and the tram which goes to the airport, as well as being a 5-10 minute walk of Waverley Train Station. There are local supermarkets within walking distance too- everything really is on your doorstep for a wonderful Edinburgh weekend.

Please do not hesitate to get in touch should you wish to find out more. We look forward to welcoming you to Edinburgh.

Fantastic holiday

The flat worked out very well for friend group of 4 couples. Excellent location. Kitchen faucet needed some work. The beds were a bit hard. As most reviews reported, the entryway to the building still needs some lighting and work, but overall it was very good for our group.

Family trip to Scotland

The apartment was located in a very central location which was fantastic! We were able to walk to the majority of our sightseeing adventures. Unfortunately the water/pipes in the kitchen were loudly squeaking, disturbing the family throughout our 5-day stay. It also may be time to refresh some of the bedding; pillows, comforters, & sheets.

This is an incredible location. Right in the heart of incredible shopping and historical sites, plus easy access to transportationThe rooms are enormous with high ceilings and a glorious great room with amazing kitchen and both washer and dryer. Note to north american travlers: there is an on / off wall switch that controls the power to the refrigerator. And the dryer occasionally needs the water resevoir emptied. Yes, as others have mentioned, this location is accessible only via two flights of dimly lit stairs. This is literally the only detraction. Would definately return!

great location

The location was perfect, close to town center and near bus lines. The stairwell is a 'work-in-progress' and manageable but should at least have had a light -- one of our crew fell on the way down. The noise from the piano bar is a distinct disadvantage and caused me to spend some nights on the living room couch.

Wonderful stay at a great location

My group of five people heartily enjoyed our stay in this unit. It has a perfect location for exploring Edinburgh. There are so many choices for dinner and pubs, some right next door. We were there during the height of the fringe festival and all the other arts festivals and the Military Tattoo. So the city was quite active. The unit is very modern and clean and we had no complaints. Very nice place.

Fabulous Apartment in Edinburgh

My family of 8 adults (3 couples, 2 singles) had a wonderful stay at this beautifully renovated and comfortable 2nd floor apartment in Edinburgh. The entrance and stairwell are definitely not representative of this well-appointed apartment. It was like the black and white scene in the 'Wizard of Oz' where Dorothy walks out of the farmhouse into Oz and everything is unexpectedly bright and beautiful. The rooms are spacious, the beds were very comfortable and having 5 bathrooms made the mornings so efficient. Be sure to bring along some Nespresso pods as we all felt spoiled having a morning espressos. This place is in the center of Edinburgh with easy access to restaurants, pubs, beautiful shops, grocery stores and within walking distance to Edinburgh Castle. Our only regret is that we wished we would have booked a longer stay!

Perfekt beliggenhed

Dejlig stor lejlighed med mange badeværelser. Pænt og rent og perfekt til en familieferie. Bliv ikke forskrækket over trappeopgangen, som er forfærdelig og beskidt. Gåafstand til alle attraktioner og masser af spisesteder i området. Vi var seks voksne og tre børn og havde en fantastisk ferie.

Lovely flat in the new town. Quite a few stairs to get up to the flat and front bedrooms were also quite noisy however earplugs were provided. So many bars and resturants in the area!

Fabulous location!!

We loved our stay in the apartment. The location is perfect, walking distance to everything in Edinburgh, restaurants just downstairs, walk to the castle, easy transportation from the airport. The apartment is lovely on the inside with very spacious rooms. The pictures don't convey just how large the rooms are. The baths are all nicely renovated. We were traveling with extended family and everyone had plenty of space to spread out.

A great place to stay

This property was perfect for us. It's a really good size, well-furnished, very clean, and the location is really central. The only thing to note is that there are lots of stairs to get to the flat, so it's not suitable for anyone looking for step-free access (we didn't need step-free access, so had no issues with it ourselves). Overall, we really enjoyed staying in the property and would happily recommend it.

Location and space!

We truly enjoyed our stay. With 6 adults and only 2 days to see the city, this was the perfect place for space and proximity to all the sites. The unit is comfortable and well appointed. All beds were super firm which we all appreciated. We would definitely book back on a return trip.

Lovely apartment, don't be put off by the entrance and stairwell

Superbly equipped apartment in excellent location minutes walk from tram stop and Princes Street. Traffic noise not a problem but several bars and restaurants nearby mean occasional noise late at night may be a problem if you are a light sleeper in the ensuite room facing the road - no problems with noise in the other bedrooms. Comfy beds and beautiful bathrooms. Central heating a bit variable in bedrooms and bathrooms due to high ceilings, old windows and thermostat being located in the lounge area.. Negatives are the very scruffy entrance hall and stairwell (thankfully we were warned in advance) and windows that desperately need replacing but the quality of the apartment and furnishings more than compensates. We were a mixed age adult family group and everyone loved the apartment but due to several flights of stairs I personally would not recommend for elderly people or young children. Would definitely stay here again if we had another big family get together.

Spoiled by terrible entrance

This gets a "good" solely because of the quality of the interior of the flat. It was very spacious, clean and well appointed. This included the provision of earplugs which were essential to keep out the noise of the piano bar nearby which didn't ease until after its 3am closure and the party in the flat upstairs on our first night which was attended by a large number of young people. Perhaps one went home minus her underwear because when the blinds were opened the next morning the view over Frederick Street had been enhanced by a pair of knickers which had snagged and were hanging on a cable outside the window. The property would get a "never again" because of the appalling state of the entrance stairway. Even though a warning and apology was given in advance of arrival that it was "dark and under refurbishment by the owners over which we have no conrol" I did not expect it to be so bad. It was filthy, dark. even had blood stains on the wall and because the door didn't self close it was often left open by neighbours. On party night they propped it open with a bag of rubbish (which tells a story) which left it open for anyone to come in for shelter or any other purpose. It may be that there is no control over the refurbishment but surely the stairs could be cleaned.

Just the best apartment

FAbulous apartment. Gave us a bit of a shock when we first arrived as building was being rennovated and the stairs were a bit of a mess, but once inside - we were delighted. Definitely be back to stay here again.
