A great internet find, very high standard which loads of space and lots of lovely touches, so m uch better than been in a hotel room, near enough to be able to walk to town. We loved it. more

Recently returned from my first visit to the Edinburgh festival and came across Alba whilst scrolling through the vast amount of accommodation available in Edinburgh. As there were 6 of us with children included we opted for an apartment rather than a hotel so the children would have a bit more space to move around, as woudl we. This little... more

We recently stayed in the 3 bedroom Lower Villa for several nights as part of a family reunion/holiday. Overall, it was a good experience but there is considerable room for improvement! The villas are spacious and newly renovated. There's a large, flat-screen tv and free wifi. They're located in a nice, safe residential part of Edinburgh. The management is generally... more

I think the various Victorian buildings made up a RBS residential complex or something but the architect deserves shot for the... more

I stayed in the cottage for a couple of nights during the week. The accommodation is set in a beautiful residential area on the south side of the City. You can be in the city centre in about 20 minutes walking. Busses are regular so getting in and out of the town is easy. There is plenty of parking on... more

Booked with Alba Executive Apartments for a weekend in their Coach House. Was a little concerned that there were no reviews to check, but the website looked good and it seemed good value as I booked on late rooms. There are several groups of apartments some set back from the main street and in varying sizes. They seem to be... more
