I have booked for the Single bedroom

I have booked for the Single bedroom apartment but we have been upgraded to 2 Bed without any charge. The apartment was really wonderful & we really had a very good stay. The apartments are quite close to haymarket station. I would recommend this hotel & would like to stay again there. Please keep a note that the check-in time is after 2 pm, so make arrangements accordingly.Also the reception is a short stroll from the apartments. The good thing was you can check out early is need be & can drop the keys in the drop box. Really a home away from home..:)

A lovely spacious place. It was

A lovely spacious place. It was nice and clean with hifi, tv, wifi facilities. Just like a complete equipped apartment. The Fountain Court Apartments are located about 15 minutes walk from the Castle. So they are not too far from the city centre. Regarding the service we did not have the best reception. We arrived at about 10pm in the night. It took us a while until we eventually found someone to give us the keys (reception was closed and we had to wait about 15 minutes until someone showed up)...When then got the keys and it took us a while until we actually found the apartment. It is not exactly clear were the apartments are located as we were given the wrong directions. The parking is spacious and safe BUt it comes with a price of 8UKP per day on top of the price you pay. So... its not free. The price for renting the apartment is bit high. It would possibly compare with 4* hotels in the city centre but if you want to keep your car somewhere safe then it is highly recommended.

These are serviced apartments

These are serviced apartments NOT hotels so bear that in mind i.e. no gym, restaurant facilities etc that one may associate with hotels. Due to them being serviced apts they do come with dishwasher, cooking facilities, cutlery and crockery etc and have a reception plus daily housekeeping. I have used them multiple times for work and they are located less than 10 mins walk from Haymarket station. Some apartments are dated and require redecoration. if you can get them the best ones are in the Harris block - much cleaner and more modern.

Fountain Court - Grove

The apartment was well equipped. We found that most of the attractions in Edinburgh to be in walking distance (we're good walkers though), and for those not in walking distance public transportation was close and frequent. The only two negatives are that the washing machine (the main reason we booked the apartments) could only wash and dry a few things at a time. It would take all night to wash and dry a few pairs of socks and underwear. We also wished that there were more restaurants close by. But for the price and amenities, I would recommend the apartments.

Decent option for Edinburgh

Clean and comfortable, but a little bit of a walk from the main Edinburgh attractions. However, everything is still in walking distance.
