Lovely flat! The bed was very comfortable, which I find to be important when staying in a hotel. The kitchen was fully stocked with cookware if you wanted to cook instead of eating out. There were only a few things to complain about. The sofa had a few spots that needed cleaning, it was also extremely uncomfortable, and the shower was very slippery so proceed with caution. I ended up stubbing my toe pretty bad on the drain. Over all though, great property.

Great stay! Perfect location right off the Royal Mile. Apartment was beautiful and had great personality. The restaurant next door (Larder) was a fantastic way to start the day. I loved how well the automated access actually worked.

We had a terrific time in Edinburgh and choosing this place to stay helped in that immensely. The location to central Royal Mile doesn't get much better. The apartment had everything that you could think of. A full kitchen, coffee/teas, lots of linens, etc. Artisan pizza right next door (3 Blind Mice) was suggested by property and was fantastic as well. They will suggest your parking options, but keep that in mind for really ANY property in the Old Town--just an FYI. They have a very polished system for emailing, alerting, info, etc. I reached out to them and was replied to very quickly. Very nice and clean place to stay in a memorable city worth visiting!

Beautiful, spacious and well worth it!

The flat was beautiful! It had everything i needed. It was so spacious and I loved the way the sun would come in through the ornate windows in the morning. It was perfectly centrally located. Close to everything. I only wish i had been staying in Edinburgh longer to enjoy the flat even more.

Property was very pretty but my suite was on the 3rd floor and my bedroom was on the 4th. The stairs were really too much for me to handle. There should have been some information about this. It was nice to have a full kitchen and the space was quite comfortable. Other than having WAY too many stairs and no elevator, it was an enjoyable stay.

The linton collection was an excellent apartment block in a very good location just off the royal mile. There was a great speak easy type cocktail bar next door called the three blind mice and it was easy to walk to most actractions from the apartment. I would highly recomend the apartment as it had an excellent bathroom with a brilliant shower and free molton brown products to use. Great heating for winter stays and a fan provided if needed. The apartment had a Comfortable double bed and a lovely large lounge and kitchen area with a tv and washing machine. It is pricey to stay in Edinburgh but I think this apartment was worth every penny we paid for it and would deffinatly stay here again.

Although I am not a fan of properties with no on site staff, this one worked out. Not having access to email, I was able to call and get the information needed to check in. The man I spoke with was professional, understanding and helpful. The place itself is terrific-immaculately clean, spacious and very comfortable with an onsite kitchen (only for small meal preparation) with an espresso machine, dishwasher and, most importantly, a washer/dryer which took a little time to figure out. Close to Waverly train station on a quiet block. Highly recommend.

PROS: Great location in Edinburgh. Within walking distance of everything. Lots of shelving & storage. Well equipped kitchen. Check-in & out instructions were clear and communication was excellent. Showers were nice and roomy and plenty of hot water. CONS: We requested a week in advance (like instructions told us to) for the sofa bed to be made up. I was told it would be put in my reservation file. We arrived and it was not made up. Luckily, there were sheets in one of the closets so we were able to make up the sofa bed ourselves. However, the sofa bed mattress was quite stained as was the extra comforter. Kind of gross. Picture of sofa bed looks a lot more comfy than it was. They had air freshener reeds in each of the bathrooms that were overpowering. We wrapped them both in plastic bags and shoved them in a closet. Had to request extra toilet paper a few times which was annoying. The pumps on the hand soap in both bathrooms were broken and did not work so we had to keep it unscrewed and just pour a bit out when washing hands. There was large amount/ pile of dust on top of the wardrobes and on the bottom of nightstands. It wasn't just a little it was a lot! Exhaust fan in one bathroom did not work. Not really a con but the clothes washer is a washer/dryer combination unit. It was okay but not very big and dries VERY SLOWLY. Was difficult to do a week's worth of laundry for 4 people. Took forever and a lot of patience.
