EDINBURGH

An unloved Edinburgh flat transformed into a performing Old Town short-term let

The Property

Burnets Close is one of Edinburgh’s historic Old Town addresses, seconds from the Royal Mile and within walking distance of some of the city’s most visited landmarks.

When mySTAYINN took on this two-bedroom apartment, the property had real potential but hadn’t been set up to realise it. Every room needed attention and the flat lacked the presentation and character that today’s short-term let guests expect.

The Location

The location speaks for itself. Waverley Station is a short walk away, Edinburgh Castle is visible from the street and the entire Old Town is within easy reach on foot. With nightly rates ranging from £100 to over £300 depending on demand, the property is well positioned to perform consistently throughout the year and particularly strongly during Edinburgh’s busy festival calendar.

What We Did

mySTAYINN covered the full cost of the transformation upfront, with no charge to the owner. The investment would be recovered through the performance of the property itself. It’s an approach that reflects how mySTAYINN works: we only succeed when the property does.

Every room was made over with distinctive touches, creating a space that feels considered and individual rather than generic.

The property is now professionally photographed, fully listed across multiple platforms and set up with everything a guest needs from the moment they arrive – hotel-quality linen, fully equipped kitchen, self-check-in and comprehensive local guidance covering the best of Edinburgh’s Old Town on the doorstep.
