I stayed at The Steamworks a couple of years ago (2010) (The other date here does not let me put 2010 so Ive marked 2011) I was attending a friends wedding in Edinburgh. The room was nice n warm very clean, with a very hospitable welcome found on the door when I arrived. I loved the atmosphere of the place... More

I originally booked to stay for two nights, but so enjoyed the city and the accommodation that I opted to stay for an additional night. When I arrived, the standard room that I had booked was not available, so I was upgraded to an apartment at no extra charge. The rooms seem to have undergone some light renovation since the... More

Located in a very quiet and pleasant residential area, yet a stones throw from the centre of Edinburgh this was a great base for a long weekend stay. Yes it's above a sauna but the whole place is so tucked away down a quiet residential street it doesn't feel like it and chances are there'll be no-one around to see... More

For us, Village Apartments was the perfect base for our short visit to Edinburgh. There is one review on here where there is a complaint that you have to check in through the Steamworks sauna.

When I arrived at the apartments I was a little shocked to discover that the accommodation was directly above a “gay sauna” and was loudly advertised with a rainbow flag. You have to check in at the steam works, and to be honest I was a little embarrassed to walk in and out of the door. Although the staff there... More

My partner and I spent Hogmanay at the Village Apartments. These are exclusive gay male apartments in an excellent location, two minutes from Broughton Street and no more than 15 minutes from Princes Street. You check in at the gay sauna which is next door, but there is a separate door with access to the apartments for the rest of... More
