Ocean Serviced Apartments – A Favorite for Families in Edinburgh
About the Hotel
Spacious Serviced Apartments
Ocean Serviced Apartments offer two-bedroom, family, and executive apartments in Leith. Each apartment includes two bathrooms (one with a bath, one ensuite shower), a fully equipped kitchen, and an open-plan living area with floor-to-ceiling windows. Executive apartments feature a terraced balcony with views of Edinburgh and the Firth of Forth. Beds can be configured as super king or twin, with options for additional single beds in family units.
Self-Catering Convenience
The kitchens come with a fridge-freezer, dishwasher, microwave, stove, oven, toaster, and kettle. Basic kitchen essentials like plates, bowls, roasting dishes, and coffee makers are provided. Each apartment has a combined washer-dryer, iron, ironing board, and complimentary high-speed fiber internet. A welcome pack includes tea, coffee, milk pots, sugar, and cleaning supplies.
Leith's Waterfront Location
Located at 2 Western Harbour Midway, the apartments are three miles from Edinburgh's city center. The area features independent shops, bars, and restaurants, including Ocean Terminal with a cinema and dining options. Nearby landmarks include the Royal Yacht Britannia, Western Harbour Lighthouse (0.3 km), and Victoria Park (1 km). The number 11 bus connects directly to Princes Street, and the upcoming tram extension (Spring 2023) will link Leith and Newhaven to central Edinburgh.
Business & Family Amenities
Free underground parking is available, avoiding city center fees. Business travelers benefit from desks (on request), printing services, and 24-hour emergency support. Families can request cots and high chairs (free, first-come basis). Weekly housekeeping is included for stays over seven nights, with daily refreshes for shorter stays. Luggage storage is available during reception hours (Mon-Fri 9 AM-5 PM, Sat-Sun 10 AM-4 PM).
Strict Guest Policies
Unauthorized extensions incur a £250 fee. Tampering with fire alarms results in a £500 fine. Lost keys cost £30 per set. Non-emergency after-hours call-outs (e.g., lockouts) are charged £75. The apartments are not disability-friendly but have elevators and wide hallways. No pets, stag, or hen groups are allowed. Check-in requires advance arrangement with reception.
