“Great location, nicely decorated and comfortable property”
+Great location and lovely feel to the property. Nicely decorated and everything you need onsite. Lovely staff great welcome pack.
−Didn’t really dislike anything only thing that I can say is due to a storm while we stayed we all had a sleepless night due to the wind blowing through the boiler vents in the main bedroom wardrobe resulting in rattling doors and windows. This was only due to the storm though and the rest of the stay we slept great.

“Lovely stay in the city.”
+The location was perfect for access to the Royal Mile and the museum. We were able to walk everywhere. There were many lovely restaurants right near the apartment but I would be sure to make reservations. The apartment was comfortable and cozy. The communication and helpfulness of the host was top notch.
−No place for luggage. Other than that it was great.

+Nearly everything was satisfactory
−Attention to detail. On arrival, one of the toilets was packed with tissue this made for an unpleasant start. There was towels only for 1 and we had to request more. The paper kitchen towels was down to its last sheet and no replacement? Shabby - little things mean a lot especially when you are paying "Top Dollar " £1750 for 4 nights equates to £440 per night. This is a lot of money for a nice apartment, but far from 5 star 🌟 £300 per night would be OK,, stills expensive, buy certainly over priced at £1750 I know Edinburgh has a reputation for extortionate rates at the time of the festival and fringe, but that was over? Hey Ho I know you will ignore my comments, but think of the customer. Very many thanks 😊

+We had wonderful 2-night stay at The Thistle Apt in July 2025. The location is absolutely perfect just 250 metres from Princes Street, making it super easy to explore Edinburgh on foot. The apartment was clean, cozy, and full of charm, exactly like the photos. The communication with the host was smooth from booking to check-in, and everything was well-organized.

“Edinburgh”
+The apartment is situated in a gorgeous building. It was an easy walk to the Royal Mile, as well as buses and trains. Plenty of food options close to the apartment too. Apartment was well equipped. Cute living area and a small kitchen. Main bedroom was small but both had ensuites.
−The bed in the master room was very small and pillows uncomfortable.

“Great apartment in great location”
+The apartment is very quaint, fantastic central location in a pretty, cobblestone street. Apartment is comfortable and it has everything we needed. Staff is very friendly and helpful.
−It was above Thistle Street Bar which did not present any problem for most of our stay but one evening the socialisation moved outside (front and back of the property) and it was too loud for our children to go to sleep.

“We throughly enjoyed our stay in the Thistle Suite!”
+Location was about 15 min walk to Royal Mile and Edinburgh Castle. Very close to many pubs. We especially liked the Thistle Street Pub right below the suite.
−The double bed was a little tight for two adults.
