We stayed in this apartment on a Groupon deal. Thought we had been given the worst apartment as we paid a third of the advertised price. I see from other reviews that this is not the case. We also found the place to be dirty, in need of serious decoration and updating. The only good thing going for it, was... More

Booked through Groupon a one bedroom apartment. Great central location with good restaurants nearby. However, we were on 3rd floor and the stair is steep and winding and therefore not suitable if you have mobility issue. A pub downstairs and my husband was woken up by noise from people shouting outside the pub but I did not get woken up.... More

Our apartment was right across from the castle and central to everything that we wanted to see. However it was really hard to sleep with loads of people outside constantly yelling, which happened both nights we were there (it was a friday/saturday and there is a club just down the road.) The thin windows made it impossible to sleep. Aside... More

After reading all the negative reviews re these apartments, I feared the worse, and nearly looked at rebooking new accomodation. Im glad I didnt !! We arrived early on the Friday morning, and the office in Queens St were only happy to hold onto our bags (free of charge) before our check in time at 3pm. They were very helpful... More

I stopped here with a group of mates for a stag. We had 2 appartments, with cookers, lounge, bathrooms and 4 beds in each. Having read some of the reviews before I went I was concerned as to what we'd find on arrival. The appartments are tucked away off the main road, but aren't bad at all. The rooms are... More

I also booked via the Groupon offer and my parents went. We were lucky that they got to stay in the central apartments, but the location was brilliant. I had looked at the website and knew about the separate key pick up, so they were prepared for this. I also asked for the lowest level room they had, which helped... More

I have recently returned from a stay with self-catering company Tartan Apartments, Edinburgh and was extremely disappointed. Far from the accommodation being luxury as advertised, it was at the very best one star. We had booked our 3-night stay with national website GroupOn at a great price. Myself and my partner greatly anticipated this holiday only to be let down.... More
