Had three days in the patio suite - the smallest suite but easily large enough for 2 people. The accommodation was ideal for a lazy weekend break as it had everything you needed - great location for shops n bars, Sky TV, all mods kitchen, comfy bed (with TV in bedroom) etc. Worth a mention is the supplied breakfast, no... more

I stayed at the chester residence in september whilst helping my brother move into the university. The rooms were very very large for a city, with a kitchen, 2 bathrooms and a large bedroom with an additional sofa bed in the grand living room. A stunning building with high ceilings and decorated to the highest standard. The owners were very... more

This was my second stay at Chester and based on my experience to date I wouldn't stay in anywhere else in Edinburgh. I've stayed for both leisure and business and it suits both purposes perfectly. Chester has all the comfort and luxury of a five star hotel, in fact it is like staying in a suite at a 5 star... more

We spent the most enjoyable weekend break at the Chester Residence to celebrate my friend's 40th birthday. Both prior to our arrival and during our stay, nothing was too much trouble for the owners Graham & Gillian. I requested a chauffeur driven car to take us to our restaurant as a birthday suprise for my friend and despite their usual... more

My fiance and I travelled from San Diego, CA to Edinburgh to marry at Dundas Castle September 2, 2007 and stayed at 9 Chester St. for three nights before our wedding day. The residence exceeded our expectations and was a perfect lead-up to the big event. The neighborhood is lovely--you are off the main roads but close enough to walk... more

We were in Edingburgh to "do" the Fringe as with two student-aged children this is the best way of having a family holiday we have yet found. We stayed three nights and had the two bedroom apartment on the second floor. We were very impressed with the accomodation. It is totally clean, spacious and well equipped with fittings and furnishings... more

This is the second time we have stayed in these lovely apartments. Often a return visit does not always meet the same expectations, not the case with the Chester residence. The rooms were still furnished to the same exacting standards and the service we received from the proprieters Gillian and Graham were as obliging and friendly as on our last... more

I discovered the Chester Residence as a consequence of Tripadvisor.com. I'm delighted we found it. My wife and our two kids, aged 12 and 16 spent 3 nights at the Chester last month. We flew from Portland, Oregon through Vancouver BC, and then Heathrow into Edinburgh. After collecting our bags, it was about a 20 minute cab ride. We got... more
