Welcome to Cheval Abbey Strand Apartments at Holyrood, prestigiously located on the doorstep of the Palace of Holyroodhouse in the royal heart of Edinburgh. The luxury Residence features nine utterly-original and beautifully designed serviced apartments, available to book for any length of stay, from one night, to one year or more. Sharing an unrivalled pedigree, the building has been home to a number of courtiers during its 500 year history. This rich past meets contemporary living within its characterful walls. Designed with a nod to the colourful assortment of former inhabitants, the collection of Open Plan, One and Two-bedroom Apartments are totally unique and intriguingly unconventional. All apartments are equipped with luxury extras to enhance your stay, whilst each apartment is uniquely versatile, featuring a range of shapes and sizes, sleeping from one to five guests.

With almost 40 years’ experience in the accommodation sector, Cheval Collection operates an eclectic portfolio of serviced apartment brands. The current eleven Residences in operation include a total of 621 apartments, ranging from open plan one-bedroom layouts to grand penthouses, all situated in prime locations in both London and Edinburgh. Cheval Collection has earned a reputation for exceptional service and quality, and is recognised for being at the leading edge in the development and management of luxury serviced apartments and residences.

Cheval Abbey Strand Apartments at Holyrood are located at the foot of Edinburgh’s historic Royal Mile, on the doorstep of the Queen’s official Scottish residence - the Palace of Holyroodhouse - and immediately opposite the Scottish Parliament. To add to its unique sense of place, each apartment also has views of the majestic volcanic remains of Arthur’s Seat and The Craggs. For those who have booked a 1 Bedroom Apartment, you can also enjoy the view to the south of the beautiful Physic Garden, reimagined and redesigned from its original status as the Royal Botanic Garden of Edinburgh in 1630. Upon a short stroll up the Royal Mile you will encounter many of the city's most historic buildings and attractions, including the Museum of Edinburgh, the Museum of Childhood and the Tolbooth Tavern, an atmospheric 16th century pub adorned with picturesque wall lamps and art work that seem to justify its haunted reputation. Not that we believe in that sort of thing…
