JOIVY Calton Hill Idyllic cottage feel next 2 Princes St

Our beautiful period flat is on historic Calton Hill, in the Centre of Edinburgh.

A lovely location with a magical private garden. Waverley station, tram, shops, theatre, restaurants all within a 5 min walk. If you're flying into Edinburgh just get the airport link bus or tram into the town centre. The bus and tram stops are a few minutes walk from the house.

The space
A lovely sunny flat with a spacious lounge opening into a private garden with beautiful seating area. Cute and cozy double bedroom, fully equipped dining kitchen and newly refurbished bathroom. The living room has a traditional fireplace but this is not a working fire, due to the chimney not being open. Don't worry, you won't be cold, even during an Edinburgh winter, because the big cast iron radiators for the central heating system are very effective! The kitchen is fully equipped, including microwave, dishwasher, washing machine and large, funky retro fridge freezer.

Lots of restaurants, theatres etc are on your doorstep but if you fancy a night in there's a TV (32 inch) with all the Freeview channels. Internet access via Sky.

This home is managed by JOIVY Scotland. From affordable 1-bed flats to grand family homes, we are proud to offer our guests a wide selection of top-quality properties across Scotland, all underpinned with hotel-standard hospitality services.
JOIVY Scotland is pleased to provide: Hotel-quality linen and towels. Bathroom essentials. Professional cleaning services.

HOUSE RULES:
JOIVY Scotland wants you to have a fantastic stay, so encourage you to see the space as a home away from home - treating it as though it is yours! There are, of course, a few things we politely ask guests to note before their arrival and throughout their stay:
- Strictly no smoking, no parties, no pets
- Dispose of rubbish appropriately
- Keep the property clean and tidy
- Whilst washing up and stripping the beds at check out would be appreciated, it is by no means expected
- Quiet hours are between 10:00 PM and 9:00 AM. Please keep the noise down and respect other neighbours in the building
- Please remember to close all windows and doors when leaving the space
- Careful attention to the keys is extremely important. Guests are responsible for any additional costs resulting from misplaced keys or locksmith call-outs.
To ensure the safety of our current and future guests, we ask all guests to complete our online check-in form and to provide a valid form of identification.

Guest access
The flat is on the ground floor of a traditional Grade 2 listed building. It's in a great elevated position, so there are two flights of steps up to the front door. The property is very secure, with a telephone entry system at the front door.

Overnight car parking is available at the nearby NCP St. James Centre, 2A Elder Street, Edinburgh. EH1 3JP which is just a few minutes walk from our flat. For more information please refer to (URL HIDDEN)

Guests will have access to the entire flat.

JOIVY Scotland will be in touch to assist you with airport transfers and in-stay services, such as in-stay cleans, linen changes and childcare equipment.

Shower temperature too cold
when we first used the shower the water was tepid/32, not comfortable but usable. The last 2 days we were there the water was too cold/28 to even take a shower and this was adjusted to the warmest setting. If it had been that cold when we got there I would have called so it could be fixed but it wasn't worth it 2 days before leaving. Also the door to the patio was very very hard to unlock and lock so as a result we simply didn't use it.

AMAZING place to stay in Edinburgh
This flat is simply the perfect base from which to explore Edinburgh. It's super clean and quiet (though the upstairs neighbor can be loud, bring earplugs), has all the amenities you need, the wee garden is beautiful (such a restful oasis in the midst of a bustling city!), and it's extremely conveniently located close to all the major sights, bus tours, shopping, parks... The only thing we'd suggest is that they provide an extra set of sheets and a duvet so you can use the pull out couch. There were only two of us but we wanted to sleep in separate beds and just had to use the throw blankets for the couch mattress. We also pulled it out of the couch and put it on the floor as it's super uncomfortable as a pull out bed)

Character apartment
Small and cosy apartment good for a couple. Great central location, easy for trains, trams and buses and all major attractions can be easily walked to. Remember though that Edinburgh is not entirely on the flat.
