Description
Sit back and relax in The Portsburgh Square Residence. Tucked just behind the Grassmarket in the Old Town, this one-bedroom apartment enjoys an enviable location, but with all of the peace and quiet of an off-street setting.
The lovely and light living/kitchen area features a flatscreen TV and unlimited Wi-Fi. The kitchenette comes fully equipped with everything you need for a few days in Edinburgh, including a microwave and fridge. The cosy master bedroom offers a double bed and guest storage. A family bathroom with shower over bath completes this delightful home from home.
Please note we do not provide hypoallergenic bedding at our properties.
The Portsburgh Square Residence’s location is simply the best! Sitting on the edge of the Grassmarket and just a few minutes’ stroll from the Royal Mile, the local area is brimming with history and things to do. Whether you’d like to browse the varied boutiques on Cockburn Street or have a good old fashioned pub lunch while you gaze up at the Castle, this property has it all. The apartment itself is a grade C listed building, which occupies an ancient site within the World Heritage Trust area of Edinburgh's Old Town.
Princes Street is a mere 10 minute stroll away, and the Royal Mile is even closer. We guarantee that you’ll find intrigue galore on your doorstep - but if you’d like to venture further afield, Waverley train station is within easy walking distance and the area is well serviced by the extremely efficient Lothian Buses.
This property doesn't come with free parking but there is limited paid street parking in local area for an additional fee.

Response from the manager Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We are glad you made the most of the good location and enjoyed a comfortable stay. We are very sorry however to hear that the rubbish had not been removed - please be assured we will discuss this further with the housekeeping team to ensure this does not happen again. We are also sorry to hear of the issues making payment - unfortunately the link being removed by Agoda is outwith our control and our team do their best to provide all information on making payments to guests. It is worth noting that for bookings made via TripAdvisor, where this review has been written, a damage deposit is held on the guest's card, rather than being processed to us like on Booking.com. We hope to welcome you to Edinburgh again soon.
