Couldn’t fault. It exceeded high expectations.

The location of this apartment was absolutely perfect for our stay in Edinburgh. We were able to easily explore all the must-see attractions within walking distance. The spaciousness of the apartment was also a big plus, and the security measures made us feel safe, especially as solo travelers. And I have to mention the shower - it was the best shower I've ever had!
One of the minor issues we encountered was the sofa and chairs in the living area. They were quite uncomfortable, which made it difficult to relax and watch TV after our daughter went to bed.

The Cowgatehead Residence is my go-to place when I visit Edinburgh. The staff's taxi tips on my first stay were a lifesaver. It has everything I need - Wi-Fi, car park, kitchenware, cots - with no pets or smoking. Perfect for my romantic escapes.

The Cowgatehead Residence was a great value for my money, with a spacious and well-equipped apartment. The location was perfect, just a short walk from the Royal Mile and all the main attractions. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring I had everything I needed for a comfortable stay.
The breakfast offerings could use improvement, maybe adding more variety to the menu.

I had a fantastic weekend in Edinburgh and my stay at the Cowgatehead Residence was a big part of it. The location was perfect, allowing me to easily explore the city. The apartment itself was clean and tidy, offering a comfortable space to relax after a day of sightseeing.
I did experience a couple of minor drawbacks during my stay. the noise insulation of the apartment was not great, making it easy to hear my neighbors and vice versa.

The location was amazing, felt like I was in an episode of Game of Thrones. The free wifi came in handy, I could post my selfies instantly!
Who needs a comfortable sofa when you have young children? Definitely added some excitement to our TV nights.
