Cheval Old Town Chambers

If you’ve ever fancied your own uber-chic city pad in Edinburgh, it might well look like one of these 50 serviced apartments in the medieval Old Town.

The building might be centuries old, but the interiors are smart and contemporary, with exposed stonework, wooden floors, sleek modern kitchens and sofas in grey, raspberry or apple green wool.

Some come with balconies or views over the rooftops. There’s also a 24-hour gym, a welcome hamper for longer stays and you can pre-order your groceries to be delivered – it’s a bit like a plush private apartment block.

They’re perfect for flexible (an extra bed in an alcove) family or group stays – and you can even bring your dog for free.

Chic, contemporary design and a family and pet-friendly ethos come as standard in these luxury apartments in Edinburgh’s medieval Old Town.
