EDINBURGH SELF-CATERING We have a wide variety of self-catering accommodation and apartments in various parts of Edinburgh city centre, most of which are either newly built, Victorian or Georgian in style, with lovely spacious rooms. All accommodation is at the top end of the market in terms of standards, safety and quality and they are very comfortable, stylish and elegant, providing a relaxing and homely environment. Self-catering accommodation is the cheapest alternative when compared with Guest Houses, Bed and Breakfasts (B&B) and Hotels but most are usually let with a three-night or one week minimum and breakfast is not included. The main advantage of this type of accommodation, compared to Guest Houses and Bed and Breakfasts, is that you can prepare your own meals, but are also in a city centre location close to many other amenities, such as restaurants and takeaways, perfect for those who do not wish to cook.

All apartments include luxury bathrooms, well-equipped kitchens and spacious lounges. The lounges have luxurious, comfortable couches and dining chairs, and most of them have cable TV, DVD players and stereo systems. The kitchens are generally modern with high quality equipment such as a cooker/hob, washer/dryer, microwave and refrigerator.
