About this property

Old Tolbooth Wynd [388] is a Spacious 2 bedroom apartment just off the Royal Mile

This lovely, modern 2 bedroom property sleeps 4 guests. The apartment has the advantages of free secure off-street parking for one car if required and of being situated in Old Tolbooth Wynd – one of Edinburgh’s original medieval closes just off The Royal Mile. It is also within a short walking distance from the Lower Calton Road exit of Waverley Station.

The Royal Mile, accessed in a matter of moments through the archway of the Tolbooth, offers an enticing array of shops, bars, restaurants and cafes as well as of a plethora of fascinating buildings of great architectural significance. From the Royal Mile you are within easy reach of a wealth of attractions, including Holyrood Palace, Dynamic Earth, and the Scottish Parliament building, but also St Giles Cathedral, Edinburgh Castle, Mary King’s Close and the Camera Obscura.

The apartment is situated on the ground floor of the building. The front door of the property opens into a large welcoming hallway from which the spacious living room, with a view up towards the Burns Monument, is accessed. It has been furnished with plenty of seating, which includes a very comfortable sofa bed for flexibility of sleeping arrangements. There is a TV with Freeview, DVD player with a selection of films to choose from, iPod player and WiFi access.

Off the living room is a large well equipped kitchen with an oven and hob, a fridge freezer, a small dishwasher and a washer dryer.

Fabulous Location

We had a great stay here. Would highly recommend. The flat is well appointed and very comfortable. Location is fantastic and you can easily walk to Edinburgh Castle and Hollyrood Palace. Dealing with the property manager was great from booking to checking out very helpful and friendly. If we ever get back this way I would not hesitate to book here again.

Great location for the Royal Mile attractions

Great location to walk to all that the Royal Mile has to offer, yet far enough to remain quiet. Be sure to frequent the Tollbooth Tavern, which is a mere 400 feet away!

A wonderful city break.

We were celebrating an 80th birthday. The apartment is spacious, comfortable and warm. The well equipped kitchen and dining area made eating in a pleasure and yet there is plenty of choice close by for dining out.The position also meant we were close to all attractions, station and bus routes. A wonderful place.

Girls trip

We stayed five days and had a great time. It was easy getting wherever we wanted: walking the Royal Mile, getting to the train station or tram or just wandering the small side streets. The ground floor flat was far enough off the Mile as to be quiet and the listing was accurate. Beds were comfortable and the living room was great for relaxing after a busy day. The flat is at the quiet end of the Mile, but there are lots of great places to eat and drink within a 5 minute walk. Communication was very good and attentive. Overall a great flat and stay.

We loved Old Tolbooth Wynd

This is a very nice flat and it is very convenient to Edinburgh sites. You walk just a few hundred feet and you are at the Old Tolbooth on the royal mile. It’s also in a very quiet neighborhood - we slept very well here! Parking is provided, although we didn’t use it.

Great location

This unit was located a block off of the Royal Mile and two blocks from the train station, and 3 blocks from the tram that took us back to the airport. Pleasantly surprised! It had 3 full baths, very comfortable bedrooms, and good sized living room and a very nice kitchen fully stocked! We used the washing machine several times - and dried our clothes on the drying racks. All told, we were very happy with the place.

Great location.

Great access to Royal Mile. Washer/dryer was too tricky to figure out (the dryer function may not have worked). There were lots of key boxes - so pay careful attention to instructions on how to find the right one. Thanks for great stay.
