Fountain Court Harris Apartments

We stayed here for 4 nights as that’s all we could have off work. We had an apartment on the 2nd floor and was really comfortable for a family of 4. You have a cupboard on entry for coats and shoes then the lounge with 2 sofas a coffee table and tv. The Kitchen has a dining table, washing machine, cooker, fridge, kettle and microwave oh and a coffee machine! Everything we needed was there including wine, champagne glasses and and ice tray. Having the small balcony was nice although not a wonderful view (but it is in the city) it was nice to stand or sit out in a morning. Bedrooms were cosy with wardrobes and a little dressing table, plenty of sockets for hairdryer and phone charging etc. For me the bed was a bit uncomfortable however we all have different tastes. Bathroom was lovely with a shower over the bath, plenty of mirrors and towels. The whole apartment was clean, we were really pleased! On one of the mornings the fire alarm went off due to someone cooking in another apartment, we evacuated and the manager and fire brigade turned up. I have only mentioned this in my review because I think it’s good to know they have safety aspects in place. The kids thought it was good! When I rang ahead I asked if I could have a parking space, unfortunately they didn’t have one in our block but they did in Grove so we parked there. It meant a short walk to the car each day but £12 a day parking in a secure parking area in the city I think is really good! There are quite a few restaurants by the apartments including a fab steak house which we visited twice. We were a 10 minute walk from the city centre and the castle and if we get the opportunity to visit Edinburgh again we will stay here!
