The property was in a fantastic location to explore the city. The apartment was large with ample room for our family if 4. Good shower with complimentary toiletries. The kitchen area also had everything to get us started (a few more glasses would have helped). We were very pleased with the accommodation and having somewhere to store our bags before and after was also very welcomed. The accommodation exceeded our expectations.

We had a lovely stay overall—the apartment is in an unbeatable location next to Edinburgh Castle, beautifully designed, modern, and very well maintained. The only downside was that some basic essentials (like extra toilet paper, coffee capsules, and washing-up liquid) were not provided, which meant we had to shop for them. Aside from that small inconvenience, it’s a fantastic place and we really enjoyed our time there.

Friendly staff and a lovely apartment in a great location (especially for the grassmarket). However there were a couple of issues with maintenance, broken blind in living area so couldn't open or close blind (ground floor), no light bulb in only lamp in lounge, no washing up liquid and broken bin in bathroom. Its a shame as overall the apartments were clean and decorated beautifully so hope they don't let poor maintenance ruin the standard. Biggest issue however was there was no hot for my son in the morning so je couldnt get a shower. Communication wasnt the best to rectify situation. Overall a pleasant apartment but just need to resolve the issues.

This is a fantastic choice for anyone wishing to explore Edinburgh. Location cannot be beaten with plenty of shops and food options around and the wonderful castle as a centerpiece. All the nice touches that make a stay enjoyable from coffee to shortbread, washer and dryer, and everything else you could need. Great customer service as well as we received a call back within 2 minutes of submitting a question about our booking. I would absolutely stay here again and would recommend it highly.

We had a wonderful stay at 33 Castle Terrace in Edinburgh. The location couldn’t have been better—just steps away from the heart of the city, with stunning views of the Castle and easy access to all the main attractions. The place itself was spotless, well-maintained, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The interiors had a warm, welcoming feel, making it easy to relax after a day of exploring the city. The attention to detail really stood out, from the cozy furnishings to the modern amenities. Communication with the host was smooth and professional, which made the whole experience stress-free. Overall, 33 Castle Terrace offers the perfect balance of comfort, convenience, and charm. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Edinburgh.

Accommodations fit for royals

This place was even better than I imagined. Excellent location, easy access, and everything you need. It was spotlessly clean and obviously recently renovated/updated due to the excellent condition of everything. Chargers everywhere, modern appliances, and comfy bed.

Nice, clean apartment

We had a great stay at this apartment. It was clean, looks to have been recently renovated. It had two bedrooms with queen size beds and a nice living/kitchen area. No staff on site but management was responsive when reached via the Hotels.com message site. Was super close to Edinburgh Castle, although at the bottom of the hill, and there were nice cafes and a grocery store nearby. Plenty of room for our family of four with two adult children. They even had a convenient locker to store luggage before we could check in.

Good location. Nice design, but not so stunning like in pictures. Quite a lot gaps like a broken window curtains, non-working light bulb, an empty dishwashing liquid dispenser, and all that stuff, that were not fixed during our half-week stay.
