A wonderful apartment in the heart of all Edinburgh attractions.
Very clean and comfortable, highly recommended and look forward to staying again soon.
Rose street was a great location. Restaurants and bars close as well as grocery. Beds were comfortable and kictchen was well stocked. Even had a couple of electrical converters for USA folks
We stayed in this apartment for 3 nights recently. The apartment is in a perfect location and was very clean and nicely decorated. Gareth made us feel so welcome and we loved the Scottish treats.
First time in Edinburgh but not the last! I would stay here every time! The location couldn’t be more perfect, within walking distance to everything. We never once to a cab. Love the welcome gifts of coffee and tea and short bread. So kind and thoughtful!
Wonderful location for wandering, catching tours or a train out of town.
Garth is very timely with his communication and helped us through some unexpected issues with weather and travel.
We so enjoyed our stay on Rose Street.
Gareth has thought of everything! We especially appreciated the comfortable beds. The apartment was clean and charming and couldn’t be located in a better location in Edinburgh.
This is a very nice property! Plenty of food and retail shops within a few steps, and close to the primary Edinburgh attractions. It was also very clean, with modern plumbing and very comfortable beds. Add a great check-in experience and prompt owner communication. One of my favorite short-term rentals. We’ll return if we come back to Edinburgh!
Everything about our stay was perfect from start to finish. Gareth’s communication was excellent and he even made sure the apartment was ready slightly earlier than the usual check-in time so we could drop off our bags as soon as we arrived. The apartment is in a fantastic location in easy walking distance of all the sights, shops and wonderful places to eat. The apartment was spotless and a lovely, cosy home from home. I would definitely recommend it!
We loved our stay at Rose Apartment! The location is right in the middle of all the top tourist attractions, shops and restaurants, yet it is quiet in the evening. People watching from the front window was the best! Communication with Gareth was great and everything about the apartment was exactly as we hoped. I will definitely stay at Rose Apartment next time in Edinburgh!! Try the Taco Libre across the street for some fairly authentic Mexican food!
Gareth’s flat on Rose St was amazing. Very clean and nicely decorated. When we first arrived it was a little hairy getting around…Edinburgh is a very busy city and I was out of my element driving the rental car. Once we parked and unloaded we were so very pleased with the flat. The location was absolutely perfect…I had returned the car so we were walking everywhere. We were so central to everything so walking was amazing. The busses and trams were available pretty much at your doorstep if you wished to use them. Gareth was very responsive if I needed to contact him. The beds were so comfortable, we had no complaints whatsoever. I would highly this charming flat. It was everything we needed and perfectly described. Thank you Gareth for such a wonderful stay in your beautiful city.
This was our favourite stay on our trip through the U.K. We felt very welcome, the place actually lived up to the pictures, and the location is perfect.
The flat was just as described and we were made to feel welcomed from the beginning. Gareth checked in on us during the stay and made sure we had everything we needed. LOVED Edinburgh! Would 100% recommend for anyone wanting a great location and accommodation.
Rose Street Newtown is THE place to stay in Edinburgh. Close to all of the main attractions, great restaurants and nightlife. The apartment it well appointed, comfortable and quiet. Can’t crecommend it too highly,
The apartment is close to many things and is a hidden historic jewel. The unit was clean, comfy, decorated nicely and makes you feel at home and not like a tourist. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Many thanks to Gareth as well!
This apartment is perfect for a family! Stayed here with my wife and two kids (Ages 2 & 8mo), and it was perfect. Has a washing machine for clothes, two comfortable bedrooms, a full kitchen and living room.
There are stairs up to it, but it’s easy enough to carry a stroller up there. We would definitely stay again.
My family had a wonderful stay. The owners made checking easy ( I was delayed twice on route from Newcastle). The apartment had all the amenities one would need and having a clothes washers was a big bonus. Everywhere we visited in the city was easily accessible from this property. On my next visit to Edinburgh I would not hesitate to book this for my stay.
The Edinburgh New Town apartment is one of the nicest VRBO properties we've stayed in. It was on a pedestrian only street and close to everything including Edinburgh castle, the Royal mile, Holyrood, as well as grocery stores, shops and several good restaurants. The property was nicely decorated, very clean, and spacious, and our host, Gareth, was great to work with and very helpful. The booking, arrival and checkout all went well, and he was very responsive to inquiries. I would definitely stay here again.
