The area was convenient but noisy at night. No cleaning so we ran out of coffee and almost toilet paper. One towel for 3 days was not acceptable. On the positive, the rooms were clean and cute. The hosts were exceptional.

Superb. A real wow. We loved that you could see Arthur's seat, the parliment and the palace. The apartment was spotless. And we didn't expect housekeeping everyday, that was a lovely surprise.

Exceptional location and accommodations. The room was excellent and situated perfectly for exploring. Being adjacent to the Palace of Holyroodhouse and a short walk from Holyrood Park makes this an ideal base for a family stay. Highly recommended for its proximity to key historic sites.

Excellent location by Hollyrood Palace. Well equipped kitchen. Larger bathroom than most of our lodgings. Although space was limited for 3 people, it worked. Two of us used a large bathtub in a room adjacent to the bathroom to organize luggage. Excellent king bed.

Charming place, right outside the Holyrood Palace. Clean and modern, no lift had to carry luggage up 3 flight of stairs. The building fire alarm is very sensitive. Close to Tesco express.

The unique property really is excellent. Very old but with updated amenities. The garden behind property is beautiful. The only big problem was very poor wifi (like brutal) and connectivity using your own data plan. Loved the property but likely wouldn’t stay there again as it was just far too difficult to access online resources etc

Loved staying at Abbey Strand! Very historic building but with all modern conveniences. Quiet part of Royal Mile away from noise & traffic but easy walk to anywhere. No air conditioning but temps are generally cooler. Definitely recommend a stay when in Edinburgh.

Quiet yet close

Great location, right at the end of the Royal Mile so you're close to everything but still in a quiet little spot. Beautiful garden and view of the crag overlooking the city. Very well appointed apartments, very clean. Overall our favourite place to stay while on our trip to the UK.

The apartment was beautiful!! Clean, decorated lovely and functional. The bathrobes provided were an extra nice. The location was just perfect. We went to breakfast about a quarter of a mile away. Quiet, tucked away by the Holyrood house gardens, it was the perfect place to stay.
