Perched on lively George Street in Edinburgh's New Town, this apartment sits inside a Georgian building with real character – we're talking arched sash windows, high ceilings, and an ornate period fireplace. It's a studio, but it's not short on space. A table in the window makes the ideal work-from-home nook, there's a well-appointed kitchen, and a separate sofa is just the spot for lounging after sightseeing. Princes Street is a five-minute walk away, and Edinburgh Castle is reachable on foot in around ten minutes, so you'll be right in the thick of the action.

Home truths
The apartment sits on the second floor and is reached via two flights of steep stairs, with no lift. If you have limited mobility, heavy luggage, or are travelling with a pushchair, this setup will be challenging.
There is a nightclub and bar adjacent to the apartment, so expect to hear some noise – particularly at weekends. If you're a light sleeper or planning early nights, it's worth bearing in mind.
Keys are collected from a nearby shop on Frederick Street, about a three-minute walk from the apartment. It's worth checking the opening hours before you travel so you can time your arrival accordingly.
Please note that this home is equipped with a sensor that monitors smoke, decibel levels, and occupancy. It's camera-free and doesn't record sound or store personal data.
Kindly note that you may experience some disruption and see some scaffolding and workers in the area due to urgent masonry repairs to a neighbouring building.

About New Town
Edinburgh’s New Town isn’t new at all – it’s a glorious example of 18th-century Georgian town planning and architecture that has rightfully earned its UNESCO World Heritage Status. There’s a lot more than beautiful architecture on offer here though. Located in the centre of the city, it’s a short walk from Waverley Station, and well serviced by public transport. Princes Street, George Street, St Andrew’s Square, and the West End...
