Absolutely amazing location. Easy walk to the castle, Calton Hill, Arthur's Seat or wherever your feet might want to bring you in and around Old Town. Jon was very responsive and readily available to answer all of our questions. The apartment is nicely setup for a couple or small family looking for a weekend or even a week. The kitchen has the basics and there is laundry should you need. Only heads up I would provide is the stairs leading up to the apartment. It's only a second floor walk-up but if you have lots of luggage (we were in the UK for a month) prepare yourself. Will definitely try to book Jon's location for future trips to Edinburgh.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This place was perfect. The apartment was simple but had everything I needed. The location right on the Mile couldn’t be beat. I plan on coMing back to Edinburgh and hope I can stay again.

Amazing location & comfortable flat!!
+ The location was amazing!

It would be hard to compare this with any other.
The flat window overlooked the Royal Mile! The host, Jon, was very helpful when I had a hard time finding the front door. Comfortable beds and close to many restaurants, pubs and attractions.

If you have never been to Edinburgh, this is a great place to stay! It is close to everything . . . including Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace, National Museum of Scotland, National Galleries of Scotland, lots of attractions, and tons of shopping and pubs. Best of all this place is minutes from the Edinburgh Waverly train station. This apartment on not just close to the Royal Mile . . . it is ON the Royal Mile. It is a happening place! When we weren't having a pint at the pub at street level below the apartment, we were able to people-watch and enjoy the street performers from the comfort of the apartment. In the morning we got to wake up along with the city and felt energized about each day's adventure. Jon was very responsive to our questions and any needs we had. He clearly demonstrated how committed he was to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Two odd things we really liked . . . One was the shower. We didn't have to step out of a deep tub. The other was the tap water was pretty tasty! We really enjoyed the apartment and the location! Thank you, Jon!

Great little place in the heart of everything. Starbucks right across the way and tons of restaurants. An easy 5 minute walk to Edinburgh Castle. The washer and dryer came in handy and we loved being able to open the windows to listen to the town. Jon was wonderful if we had any questions. We will be staying here again when we come back.

This location is fantastic-right on the Royal Mile near many great shops, restaurants, and tourist attractions. A previous review did mention the street noise which we did notice but it kinda added to the charm. Property management company is one of the best I’ve dealt with.

El departamento es tal cual se ve en las fotos. La cocina muy bien equipada, y a la vuelta de restaurante y bares y todo tipo de negociones en Old town de Edinburgh.

beautiful apartment.
So central as right on the royal mile.felt really safe with my 18 yr old daughter and our first scotland trip. The location meant we could pop back to recharge batteries before heading out again!

This was our second stay at Fleshmarket Close and we loved it even more this time!! Perfect for the 2 of us. Great location and a fabulous new bathroom since our last stay. Thanks again Jon.

Fabulous location in old Edinburgh with a range of great shops and restaurants within a 2 minute walk. There are several convenience stores for stocking up on goodies. No issues with noise. Not easy for people with accessibility issues as there are a number of steps up to the apartment. Was little cramped for 4 adults but overall the modern facilities and great location made up for this.

Great little apartment.. nothing fancy just a great place right in the middle of the city!

- 05 Jan 2018

Location of the property is spot on, quite area, in the heart of Edinburgh within walking distances to all interested sightseeing spots.

Nice place for family of four to stay.The apartment is looking good clean and tidy.Everything you need in the kitchen is all provided...Location is perfect too,just a few minutes walk and you will find historic building within the city. Thanks to Jon, very friendly and helpful to his customers.

We were looking for a less expensive option for our stay in Edinburgh, and this flat was perfect: an excellent location to see the sights in a clean, cozy home away from home. Jeannette was responsive, warm and accommodating, and we really appreciated her warm welcome (she even met us at the bus stop to take us to the flat). Added bonuses: it's an easy walk to the train station and, given the location right on the Royal Mile, it's pretty quiet. We'd stay again in a heartbeat.

I stayed for two nights in this apartment with my parents and loved it. Would definitly think about staying here again. Great location and the airbed is amazing!! Loads of pubs and restaurants around and good central location for sightseeing. The only thing I would flag up to be aware of is the hill and stairs to get to it. We parked in the train station car park and it was hard work. I wouldn't let it put you off but be prepared.

Great apartment, very well equipped and rooms larger than they appear on the website. Bathroom very small, especially if there are 4 of you staying, but wonderfully comfy beds and Jon was very helpful. The location is quite perfect - and handy for the open top jump on/jump off bus tours too. Great places to eat and drink within a few yards.

My husband and I stayed at Fleshmarket Close at the end of April 12. We had a wonderful time there as the apartment is right on the Royal Mile so all the major attractions are right on your doorstep. The apartment has all the mod cons you could need and is very clean and well maintained. Jon met us on arrival and after helping us with our luggage showed us around the apartment and gave advice on places to visit in Edinburgh. We had such a great time we are heading back for another break in September!

My family and I stayed at Fleshmarket Close over Christmas and loved the flat. The location could not have been better – we were literally right on top of the Royal Mile. The flat was beautiful and well kept, and it comfortably slept the three of us. It was a steal for the price. Jon was great – he met us right when we got in from the airport and helped carry our giant bags up the stairs. I highly recommend this flat and company!

We stayed in the flat on Fleshmarket Close right off the Royal Mile. The description for the flat was very accurate and it was clean, well- maintained, and perfectly located. The owner provided great customer service and even helped carry our extremely heavy bags up the stairs. I would highly recommend this flat. We had a great stay.
