The apartment was very clean and comfortable. For a basement flat, it was surprisingly roomy and light. The kitchen galley was well-designed. The location was perfect for us - quiet at night, with useful shops nearby, convenient bus stops and easy walks.

We would definitely stay in this apartment again.



A great place in Edinburgh's Newtown

As traumatized users of a well know holiday booking agent, it was a pleasure to deal with Greatbase apartments and this nice wee apartment in Edinburgh's Newtown. Lin at Greatbase was very helpful prior to arrival including clear instructions for entry. The flat was clean and well equipped - great to have small but significant things like flowers on the table and milk in the fridge. A great locality in the heart of the Newtown. Wandering around through the Newtown, a highlight was stumbling across a bicentennial celebration in the form of a garden party at Royal Circus an elegant Georgian circle a few hundred metres to the west of the apartment. Thank you to the friendly folk of Royal Circus. It all felt a bit like entering into an Alexander McCall Smith 44 Scotland Street novel. A great stay all round.

The location is the main advantage of this property. The New Town is one of the nicest parts of Edinburgh within easy walking distance of the principal areas of the city and also has nearby public transport and food shops. The only change I would make is to have free to air Television, this would have helped me during my stay because there was a rail strike that impacted my ongoing travel.

A lovely stay in this central Edinburgh apartment, just ten minutes down the slope from Prices Street. The location is ideal for both the city centre, old town and castle as well as the Botanical gardens in the new town. One large bedroom with comfy bed and en-suite shower room and a large kitchen,diner, lounge with a quaint view of the street above from the sofa. Well equipped kitchen with microwave, cooker, fridge, hob, pots and pans, kettle and toaster. Access is down a short flight of steps from Dundas Street. Corner shops nearby and a big Tesco a ten minute walk away as well as plenty of bars and cafes virtually on your doorstep.

Perfect location for us as it balanced being close enough to the city without being in the thick of hustle and bustle. Well equipped kitchen with things like tea, coffee, fruit, oil which was appreciated.
Needed some instructions leaving on how to use the TV and heating as nothing was supplied to us .

The apartment was very cosy and homely feeling, really nice and warm too - perfect for Scottish weather! It’s set down from the street which is great as it’s quiet but still in a good location.
The apartment is a nice size and we wish we could have spent longer there!!

This is a lovely apartment that is well appointed, tastefully decorated, and very comfortable. The bathroom is small but efficient and the kitchen is also small but laid out perfectly. There were a couple of items missing... like kitchen towels and a coffee maker, but it was absolutely a perfect place to stay and should we return to Edinburgh we will definitely stay there again. It also is important to note that the apt is the garden apt... we could not find anything that said that in the documentation or on the building but once we figured it out, we thought it was a charming intimate little space.

A nice comfortable apartment in a highly convenient location.
The apartment is a good size for a couple or single traveller and includes all necessities for a simple self-catering stay.
The apartment was mostly well cleaned and most of the devices worked well however;
- a new kettle is needed as the current one leaks water when pouring and could scald
- the kitchen could do with some egg cups and a pair of scissors that work
- there was at least one lamp with no bulb and no spares available [I don't object to replacing a bulb but this is difficult if it isn't clear what type the lamp takes]
- the fridge could do with a replacement door fitting so open bottles can be stored more easily
- the tv needs better information so that it is clear that it only provides digital access and therefore not all freeview channels are available without signing in to their digital platforms
- a radio would be wonderful



Richard replied more than 1 year ago
Thank you very much for your helpful feedback. We have followed your suggestion to put a radio in the flat and also left spare light bulbs in place. We will also buy egg cups. We are always very happy to change bulbs or any other maintenance problems that might arise while you are staying. Sorry the instructions for the smart TV were not there- we have print them out again for future guests.

Thank you!

We had a very pleasant stay at the Dundas Street apartment. The location is great - a nice, if uphill, stroll into town, or there is a very convenient bus stop right outside. The supermarket over the road is really good - particularly the bakery. We were provided with helpful advice on travelling from the airport, and it took exactly the length of time we were told it would, so arrived bang on time for our check-in. The kitchen was well stocked, both in terms of equipment and some food.

Our only complaint would be the flies. From our second day, the place was infested with flies. We had to keep the shutters closed the entire time to restrict how many got into the flat. Even so, I was killing 15 or 20 a day. Whilst this sport provided an unexpected source of entertainment, it did not make for a particularly pleasant stay.

A Lovely basement apartment in a large house close to the city centre. We were met and given the key a quick tour of the property and advice on facilities and restaurants nearby. There was fresh milk in the fridge a bowl of fruit and flowers in the window. Tea coffee and sugar were also provided. We had a lovely stay and enjoyed Edinburgh.
