Welcome to our beautiful old Merchant's House apartment on Gayfield Square- once you're here, we hope you'll never want to leave! It's safely located overlooking Edinburgh's historic Georgian square (built around 1800)- a stone's throw from the fashionable Broughton Street, the Playhouse Theatre and about 5-7 minutes walk from Princes Street- very quiet but very central! From there the castle and Royal Mile are just a few more minutes walk.
The apartment is in fact the whole ground floor of an original Georgian house with private front and back garden. It feels like being in a country house but in the middle of the city. 2 double bedrooms/2 bathrooms- sleeps up to 4 people very comfortably.
On-street parking just outside (max 4 hours parking with ticket: Monday- Friday, weekends free- we can also arrange a private parking space for a small charge) or a short walk from the edge of the parking zone (24 hours free parking- about a 10-minute walk or less). Our best advice though is that unless you are doing out of town day trips, DON'T rent a car whilst here- you won't need it since everything is easily walkable (there are also good car rental options close by for when you are departing the city- just ask!)!

Free wifi internet access.

Non-smoking throughout.

Welcome food hamper on request - no need to run to the corner shop for a pint of milk when you arrive! (Please just ask for a quote depending on size and your preferences.)

All bed-linen and towels supplied along with welcome toiletries.
