Jewel Haven

As addresses go, this apartment in Edinburgh is in a superb spot. Set right in the historic heart of the city, moments from St Giles’ Cathedral and a five-minute walk from Edinburgh Castle, it’s a brilliant base for sightseeing. When you’re not busy exploring, this colourful home is a cosy place to relax, with space for groups to stay comfortably. One small downside is the lack of a lift, but if you don’t mind the climb, the location more than makes up for the stairs.

Home truths:
*Your host operates several apartments here, so the exact view, layout and furnishings might differ slightly from the photos. However, the overall quality should remain the same.
*There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb twenty steps to reach the entrance of the home on the first floor.
*This home is fitted with a noise-detection device to monitor noise levels – it doesn't record audio.
*Parking in the city centre can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible. The nearest bus stop is a two-minute walk away and Edinburgh Waverley train station is a six-minute walk away.
