    The location was excellent! Right at one end of the Royal Mile. So much walking right at your doorstep. Garage parking was a bonus in the city. the apartment was roomy and comfortable, with a fully equipped kitchen. Having a small sitting area was really nice. the bed was very comfy. Madam Cath, the host, was very kind and accommodating. the apartment was full of facilities, including a dishwasher and washing machine. the place was clean and the beds were comfortable.

    Felt so at home, no reason to complain.

    We had a comfortable stay in Edinburgh right by the Royal Mile, pubs and restaurants as well as Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle and many other attractions. The location was perfect, 10 minutes' walk from a combined museum. In fact, it was located near the Parliament Building. For safety measures it had smoke detectors.

The location was perfect, close to the Royal Mile and easily accessible to the New Town. The staff, especially Cath, were lovely and provided us with helpful information and recommendations.

    I had a fantastic stay at Alba Apartments- Gentle'S Entry. the owner was extremely friendly and accommodating, providing us with lots of handy information. the apartment's central location was superb, just 2 minutes from the Royal Mile. It was modern and thoughtfully equipped to a high standard, with nice details such as soft loo paper and toiletries provided. the apartment even had rain capes and umbrellas, which came in handy in the rainy weather of Edinburgh. it was a delightful place to stay and I would highly recommend it as a lovely base to explore this beautiful historic city. Cons: Absolutely nothing 😊.

    I recently stayed at Alba Apartments for 3 nights with friends and it was fantastic. The location was central and we could easily walk to all the iconic attractions. Having on-site parking was a great bonus and there was a Tesco nearby for shopping. We also discovered a great vegetarian cafe just around the corner. The apartment was clean, tidy, and had all the necessary amenities, including a washing machine. The view and access to walking tracks up to Arthur's Seat were amazing. a wonderful experience!

    Would recommend this hotel.
