Rooftop terrace
BrewDog DogHouse Edinburgh
4.0 star property
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (328)
"A Highlight of our vacation!! The room was exceptionally well thought out with no detail unconsidered. From the art to the large bathroom this 2 storey unit we stayed at left very little to be desired. The shower beer Friday was a fun add on and the young staff was quick on their feet when help was needed. Only comment for improvement is this: The units are mostly tailored towards men and could be taken to the next level by including more female specific details such as makeup remover and pads,...

"We were struggling with jet lag when arriving and the Native was perfect to unwind and get some good sleep while being close walking distance to restaurants, pubs and Princes St corridor. Native had super quiet and comfortable apartments and easygoing and approachable staff.
