It was an amazing apartment with the benefit of being linked to the Rutland Hotel. Cleaning was carried out every day. The appliances were all high end products.
We liked everything.

This is our second time visiting the hotel and we are once again enchanted! The welcome is always warm and friendly, the room was spacious, bright, extremely clean and had all the amenities for our stay! It was cleaned perfectly every day! The furnishings everywhere are very interesting and chosen with great taste and attention. The location is perfect - everything is within walking distance. We tried their restaurant “The Huxley” a few times - it was very delicious, there were many interesting offers. I recommend it with both hands!

The staff is absolutely delightful - so helpful, so friendly, so kind! And the rooms are STUNNING! I was in Apartment 17-2 and it was beyond GORGEOUS - large, spacious, amenities, comfy large bed, high high ceilings, a delicious shower - ahhh! I didn’t want to check out! The property is also in view of the castle (if you go out by the Huxley) easy walk to grass market (15 mins) along Kings Stables or go a bit longer to old town via Prince but also see the gardens and Scott monument and shops. 20 mins walk to Waverley train station too! I am so so happy I booked Rutland. I had dinner at the Huxley and it was delicious and as a guest, I received 20a% off.
Nothing to not like! I so highly recommend this location. I was wandering the old town and hotels closer to the castle and old town and so grateful I was not staying there due to the crowds, the noise, and the cobblestones/steps for walking with my luggage to the train station - Rutland truly checks all boxes!

Location is excellent, on a very quiet street but around the corner from great bus stops and plenty of walkable attractions and grocery stores. The two bedroom apartment was well suited to traveling with kids as they could have their own space and go to bed earlier than the adult. Staff was very welcoming and accommodating as well.
The kitchen is beautiful but the actual cooking equipment and crockery was lacking. There was one lid that fit none of the pots or pans, and only three bowls so breakfast required some creativity. It would have been useful with some microwave instructions as we simply gave up and used the stovetop. Also, I would have liked to be able to recycle all the packaging and paper we produced throughout the week, but there was only one trash bin.

Very Good
The room was a good size. Personable staff, the hotel was small enough to feel like we were being looked after. Close to all the attractions and easy access to all of Edinburgh. The Huxley for breakfast was very good.
We were on the 3rd floor, which meant you had to take the elevator to the 2nd and walk up.

We absolutely loved our stay at The Rutland Hotel! We had booked a classic room but got upgraded to one of the beautiful one bedroom apartments just down the street. The apartment was so spacious with beautiful high ceilings and windows. It was so comfortable and really added to our experience in Edinburgh. It is also in an amazing location, just far enough away from the business of the Royal Mile but walking distance to everything and a beautiful view of the Edinburgh Castle from the street. Jill checked us in/out of our apartment and was so lovely and kind. The apartment was so clean and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. We loved the city of Edinburgh and will absolutely stay at The Rutland again when we return in the future.
Nothing - everything was great

Good
Staff are excellent and welcoming. Location is good. Room sizes are great. Milk is provided in the fridge. Breakfast is utterly superb. Bed is firm and comfortable.
Details, details, details, as always. . . No-where in room to hang jackets- where are wet coats supposed to go? Coffee machine is useless- Nespresso provides 30ml of coffee in a huge mug. Daft. No grab rail in the bath and no hand shower in the shower- no good for ladies who do not like an overhead shower. No spy hole in the main door. Nice window seats but nowhere to put a drink nearby them. Lovely statement chair totally unusable as it is only 13cm off the floor- forget it if you are under 5'6" (too deep) or over 50yrs (can't get up!) Huxley as a bar is vastly overpriced- £12.50 for a cocktail of around 80-90ml in a glass occupied by an ice cube that could have sunk the Titanic.

We had a two bedroom apartment with access to a courtyard garden. Just beautiful. Very clean, serviced each day. Location perfect for castle, grassmarket and royal mile. Couldn't have asked for more. Had breakfast at main building, Huxley restaurant very good.

At check-in we were made to feel really welcome by Charlot, she was super friendly and gave us lots of tips and advice. Thank you. Room 6, the view and the room was awesome, no complaints at all with full facilities in the room. They have there own really good bar and steak restaurant, the location is perfect in the centre of Princes Street. All in all, fantastic value for money.
