10/10 Excellent

Attentive host, great location. Great amenities.
jaime, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Was a great apartment friendly and easily accessible staff and great location
Kimberley, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The property was great and location was good. Had no trouble. It is a walk up and is on the third floor. All the sites are nearby and for three nights was perfect for us
Tim, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Property was perfect for two people. Small kitchen was great to have. Location was awesome. Short walk to all the sites and restaurants. Very short walk to direct airport bus which was great for us. Would definitely stay if we find ourselves in Edinburgh again
lee, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Great stay on the 5th floor was tricky with cases! But overall great stay! So convenient and clean
Jacqui, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great stay, beautiful apartment & very nice area close to everything. There’s no elevator so not for everyone, but it’s absolutely worth the climb up the stairs! Clean, spacious apartment with all the kitchen essentials you will need.
Eric, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Clean, and centrally located to everything. I also appreciated the washer/dryer that was available.
Mary, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

No lift but room was awesome!
Melony, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Apt was very nice. Being on the 5th floor was a bit warmer and not very easy to get up to with bags. Staff was very attentive with any needs we had. Location is very convenient for busses, trains, trams and of course the royal mile.
Marni, 7-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The apartment was equipped with so many things it made being there so comfortable. I loved the apartment style living and spacious living room. I would’ve preferred to not be in the top floor since there is only stairs. The free laundry was the best thing ever. Everything was clean except the shower had a little mold. Everything else was excellent including the area and eateries close by.
Jennifer, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Like all the above. Didnt like - no elevator, the sofa at the middle of the room doesn't live a place to move in the room. After we move it the situation improve
shai, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The location is fabulous, as this property is located on the edge of old town and one block away from new town, a 3 minute walk from the train station, and very walkable to everywhere else in Edinburgh. The property itself is right above a couple of pubs, and is was a little lively on Friday and Saturday nights, but quiet on the weeknights. The entry/access system is wonderful. The apartment itself was well stocked and modern. Would stay there again.
Stephanie, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The location is great, as it is around the corner from the train station. The Royal Mile is merely steps away. Tour busses are close by. And the apartment was just as lovely as described. The property management were amazing when I realized I had left my phone behind and allowed me access back in to retrieve it. All-in-all, was a great experience! Highly recommend!
Nancy, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The location of this property is great. We stayed in a 5th floor apartment which was very hot. The bed and pillows were very hard but we were provided with softer pillows when requested. Since there is no air conditioning, I would not recommend staying on the 5th floor during the warmer months.
Timothy, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Clear signage. Laundry included with washing powder was a lifesaver. Could stay a month! Very clean and lots of nice perks like coffee, tea etc.
Celeste, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Do not stay here, it is not safe. We were walking in on in the morning by a lady who used the pin pad to get in, as theres no way to lock the door from the inside. She didnt announce herself so i have no idea who she was. The toilet was also filthy when we arrived. Expedia wont allow me to say what was all over the toilet but use your imagination. Just spend a few extra dollars and stay somewhere else.
Aislinn Rae Ann, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The location is amazing! Within walking distance of the train station and most of the local attractions. Laundry on site was really convenient. Room was well equipped. The only downside was that the bed was a bit uncomfortable, and the tap in the kitchen would leak randomly and wake us up.
Catherine, 4-night trip

6/10 Okay

This place truly boasts a perfect location – we were able to walk to all the major attractions and felt right in the heart of everything. You simply can't beat the convenience. However, our experience was significantly dampened by the poor communication regarding check-in instructions. We received very little information upfront, leading to confusion and a stressful start to our stay. It felt like we had to actively chase down details, which isn't ideal after a long journey. Additionally, it's important to note for future guests that there is no elevator. While this wasn't a dealbreaker for us, it's definitely something to be aware of, especially if you have heavy luggage or mobility issues. We had to carry our bags up several flights of stairs, which was quite a workout. If the management can improve their communication process, this would be an outstanding place to stay. The location alone makes it incredibly appealing.
Krismond, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Our flat was 5 flights up which was difficult...no lift. Elderly people could not manage as we barely did. Room itself was very good as was location.
Graham, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Convenient location.
Steven, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had an excellent stay at Destiny Scotland Apartments. The room was in great shape, very clean, and with comfortable bed and amenities. Communication with the Destiny team was smooth and everything was setup before we arrive including access code for the building / apartment. Destiny runs a smooth operation. The location is outstanding. It sits very close to the Royal Mile, the train station, and the parks. I'll say it again. Location, Location, Location. The only downside of Destiny is that there is no lift/elevator. This can be a problem if you are on the upper floors.
Kevin, 3-night trip

Great location! Very clean and well managed.
