About Capital View Apartments

These apartments enjoy unrivalled views of the capital city of Scotland, these fabulous penthouse-style apartments are available for self-catering vacational stays and business trips.

The views from each apartment are stunning, with panoramic vistas over Princes Street (the main street of Edinburgh) and historic buildings such as the Scott Monument, the Royal Scottish Academy Museum and the National Gallery of Scotland.

The location could not be more central - just 2 minutes on foot from the historic Royal Mile in one direction and from Princes Street in the other. The apartments are ideally placed for walking around the city centre's excellent variety of theatres, restaurants and bars. Edinburgh Castle, the galleries, museums, Princes Street gardens and the extensive range of shops are all easily accessible. Should you need to take public transport it is all on your doorstep.
