Just back from a quick week-end break in Edinburgh and I must say that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Royal Mile Residence. I didn't quite know what to expect after having read previous reviews in Tripadvisor, since they were either extremely positive or downright abysmal. My wife and I are happy to join the side of the enthusiasts.... more

We stayed in a two bedroom apartment at the Royal Mile residence in the beginning of August. I had booked two rooms at Ibis in the city centre of Edinburgh but at the last minute my mum decided she didn't want to stay there. So 5 days before our trip we found this apartment. We paid exactly the same we... more

We've stayed at these apartments a couple of times now, both times our bedrooms didn't face onto the street so we had undisturbed nights. Compared to the cost of two hotel rooms in Edinburgh, the two bedroom apartments are very good value. (Admittedly we did get a discount on the rate...) They are just above Oddbins and, if you don't... more

After traveling the country for 9 days with my wife, infant daughter and mother-in-law, I was pretty exhausted when we pulled into Edinburgh. We knew that the world famous Edinburgh festival was going on but I was not ready for what we found. Trying to drive in any old city is tough, but this was terrible - people and cars... more

We (2 adults, 2 kids aged 6 and 4 from Phila, PA) stayed at RMR for 3 nights in November 2006. It was an absolutely perfect place to be with a couple of smaller children to tour the city. We stayed in #5 - a two bedroom flat with a beautiful view overlooking the Balmoral Hotel and the city. The... more

I could not agree more with the report from the Massachusetts people! My wife, son, nephew, and I stayed here recently, and the mind boggles for a proper review. The only "staff" we met was one girl who was very over-worked and flustered. My wife and I have stayed at the Caledonian on previous trips to Edinburgh (which has changed... more

Although charming on their web site, the Royal Mile Apartments are poorly furnished, dirty, and the staff unhelpful. After having booked a 2 bedroom apt, we were sent to the wrong apartment up four flights with no lift for luggage after the staff took about 1/2 hour to even find the address at their off site office. They confused our... more

Myself and 3 friends visited Edinburgh for a girlie weekend and stayed in the larger apartment. The location was perfect, and we were all delighted with the apartment. It has been finished to a extremly high standard. The bathroom looked brand new with complimentry Molton Brown products and fluffly white towels. The bedrooms are a good size and beds very... more

We were really impressed by the quality of the apartment. It was finished to a very high standard and represented excellent value for money, especially when compared to a typical hotel. There was an impressive amount of space, the apartment was very clean, the bed was the most comfortable I have ever slept in and you get free use of... more
