Moment George IV Bridge

I very much enjoyed my stay at the Moment George IV Bridge, with one small caveat. I had a Castle View apartment. Really enjoyed seeing the fireworks at Edinburgh Castle during the Tattoo. (The sonic booms from the fighter jets flying over head, maybe not so much -- but that's not Moment's fault.) The apartment is more hotel room than apartment; I'd describe it as a hotel room with a dining-room table and a kitchenette. There's an induction stove with two tops -- great if you want to cook for yourself. (I did not.) TV with Netflix and other app functionality. A steamer that doubles up as an iron (somehow). Hair dryer. The usual works. Bathroom is well-appointed. Water flow in the shower was excellent. Towels were super comfortable. Housekeeping is not available by default, but I requested mid-stay housekeeping, and Moment responded right away to set it up (and agreed to do it without charge). There's a washer and dryer near Apartments 1 and 2, which are super clutch, especially if you're on the road for a while. Moment even offered to drop off a few extra laundry pods without cost -- truly excellent customer service. The one caveat isn't really Moment's fault -- just something to think about. In August, it can be deceptively hot indoors. The Moment is no exception. The apartment gets a lot of light in the afternoon -- so even with the curtains drawn at all times during the day and the fan pumping, it'll get up to 26-28C. There is no air conditioning. At night, I opened the windows, which helped cool the room down to about 22C -- but the outdoor temps were around 17-18C. I run hot when sleeping, so I need a cool room. To their credit, Moment were very responsive and offered to provide an additional fan. (I don't think it would've helped.) And this is by no means a Moment-only problem; I've stayed at other hotels in Edinburgh with a similar problem. But if you prefer a cool room when sleeping, maybe don't pick a Castle View apartment in August. Oh, and one other small point; there is no dresser/drawers, just coat hangers and a clothes rack. No full-body mirror, either (although there's one in the hall). I do just fine without those amenities, but they may be important to some of you out there.

We had the pleasure of staying at the newly commissioned Moment apartments on George IV Bridge , Edinburgh. Accommodation is first class , with quality furniture , fittings great bathroom including shower and fully fitted kitchen area. Sleep quality was very good and the king size bed was very comfortable as was the seating Communication with the guys from Moment prior to arrival was fantastic and continued so throughout our stay Location was unbelievable for access to all of the attractions of the old town , only a couple of minutes walk from Moment to Royal Mile , the Castle , camera obscura and Museum of Scotland and not too far downhill to train station, the Gardens and more conventional shopping area and eateries around Princes Street, not to forget Rose Street 🍻 Moment will be my go to moment place in Edinburgh from now on
