Guest Reviews
- WENDY (8/5): Nice flat, great location but be careful in the shower!! - Lovely decor, great location The tub/shower was so narrow and extremely slippery. Desperately need a slip proof mat in shower. My daughter slipped and slammed against the side, bruising her ribs for several days.
- Julie (10/5): -
- Serrano (7/5): - Cuatro pisos sin ascensor no avisado en ningún lugar ni en Booking
- Julia (6/5): I’d expect better facilities for this price. - Spaciousness and fairly high quality but lacking in finesse of furnishings to make it great!
And the staff were amazing with a few hiccups we had, quick response, professional and polite. As a hotel designer I felt a bit underwhelmed by the finishing touches.
No hooks in bathrooms to hang towels or shelves to put toiletries on. No side tables in lounge. Limited cutlery (not very good quality) & utensils. No dressing table in bedrooms nor a chair to put clothes on we had to lay everything on the floor!! And no screen on bedroom windows for privacy. Blackout blinds not wide enough. In a beautiful room it needs curtains & furnishings which would look great and practical too.
- Ilaria (10/5): -
- Zoe (8/5): Great stay! - Amazing location!! Apartment was spacious and very comfortable. Flat was located on the 3rd floor which had very steep steps. Was told there was no lift along with check-in instructions where accessibility would have been hard to accommodate
- jennifer (10/5): Fabulous spot in New Town. Highly recommend. - Great space and comfortable and clean. We have stayed there before and were happy to return! Nothing!
- Chengcheng (7/5): - 房间很新,很干净很整洁,暖气很足,适合家庭出游。 没有电梯!没有电梯!没有电梯!虽然预定的时候选择了偏好是一层,但是入住还是被安排到了顶层四层。楼梯是旋转式的,很窄,我们一行有3个24寸的箱子,搬上楼要累死了。
- Jon (8/5): -
- Roberta (10/5): Posizione centralissima, appartamento super accogliente - Tutto Niente
- Ana (10/5): - Extremely spacious, super clean, excellent location. The customer support was fast with replies, allowed us to check in early, and leave the bags at the office on the day of the check out which was really helpful. I would definitely recommend this property.
- Claire (10/5): Just perfect - Absolutely stunning apartments. Great views, great location and such a beautiful clean place. Huge bedrooms and everything was spotless and high standards The noise of the water heater for everyone in the building. So if someone was washing hands or showering in middle of night from another apartment. It was very noisy in our hall cupboard.
- Dian (9/5): - Location was great! Apartment a was clean and well done. Heat wasn’t able to be controlled even after contacting the company.

- Goran (10/5): Central location, clean and spacious! - Central, clean and spacious! Kitchen was spotless, well equipped. Bathrooms also very clean, had enough towels. Location was central, near to everything, good value for money in Edinburgh, especially if you want to prepare some meals yourself or with kids. Carpet, wooden floors would be nicer.
- Eva Maria (10/5): -
- Claire (9/5): - Convenience of location, decor, cleanliness Bed was very hard. Perhaps a mattress topper would help

- Sabina (7/5): -
- Marisa (10/5): Amazing apartment, very homely with lots of space - We loved the location and the size of the apartment. Perfect for a couple
The bed was comfortable and beautiful large windows with a lovely view Nothing
- Klavdija (10/5): -
- Susan (8/5): - Spacious, clean, comfortable, prime location for walking in old Edinburgh and in New Town. Shower controls were confusing and spray spread onto floor and walls.
- martial (10/5): - Tout était parfait, autant le personnel que l'appartement,que l'emplacement c'était génial ! Rien

- Alex (9/5): -
- Jade (9/5): -
- Julien S (9/5): - L'emplacement parfait.
L'espace de l'appartement (n°4 au 21 Queen street)
Les équipements Le fait de devoir rajouter un supplément après coup pour le linge de lit pour une 3eme personne alors qu'elle était mentionnée dans la recherche.
L'isolation phonique : la chambre donnant sur la rue n'avait pas de double vitrage. Prévoir des boules Kyes !
Le matelas de la chambre etait très dur. Le canapé lit était plus moelleux.
- Linda (10/5): Lovely spacious accommodation in perfect location for birthday celebration - Spacious property, well equipped kitchen and beautiful living and bedroom areas
Great location
Ability to leave luggage at office much appreciated Nothing not to like
- Jeannie (10/5): Lovely Apartment in Edinburgh - The apartment was lovely. It was spacious and clean with all amenities available. Location was also central with easy access to the centre of Edinburgh. The only thing I would omprove was to have door jams to keep the lounge and bedroom doors open.
- claudia (10/5): - Perfect flat in great location. Very nice staying at this place and great handling of the arrivals and departures. Beautiful fourniture and charming flat.
- Viacheslav (10/5): -
- Karen (10/5): -
- Regina (9/5): Haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt! - Sehr grosszügige Wohnung, perfekte Lage, ruhig. Im Schlafzimmer war es sehr kalt, die Fenster schliessen nicht richtig.
- James (10/5): It was such an amazing time - The property was excellent, perfect location N/A
- Sue (9/5): Central. Comfortable. Relevant. - The property was beautiful in an amazing part of town. Very comfortable. There is nothing that stood out.
- Katerina (10/5): -
- Stacey (6/5): It was fine. Central. But overpriced for what it was in my opinion - Central. Spacious for family. The door handle on the door hanging off wasn’t a good start! Or having the code to get in! But that was sorted after a call. I also felt it could be cleaner and it did have a funny smell in the kitchen. The kitchen didn’t feel very clean. I think also paying to have a cot when you have toddlers is ridiculous.
- Daniele (10/5): - Appartamento spazioso pulito e ottima la posizione.
Tutto perfetto!
- Barbara (9/5): Comfortable self contained flat in central Edinburgh - Very spacious self contained flat. Excellent facilities…stove/oven, fridge, dishwasher, washing machine. Everything we needed. Unfortunately this flat was on the 4th floor without a lift. Definitely not mentioned when booked. Fortunately we managed however others may not have managed. Be warned!
- Charlotte (5/5): - Good location, spacious accommodation. A little soulless and a few minor issues.
- Ana Paula (10/5): Excelente estadía, sin dudas volvería alojarme allí. - El apartamento impecable, excelentes instalaciones y muy buena ubicación. El
personal que no tramitó el check in muy correctos y amables Todo muy bien, nada que objetar
- Matthew (10/5): Beautiful apartment in Edinburgh, would highly reccommend - Perfect apartment and great stay for family of 5. Really close to centre of Edinborough. Would Highly recommened Everything, Clean. Good decor and location was all brilliant. Had everything you could want in terms of facilities and had wifi netflix all included! Could not be happier with this property.
- Dannah (9/5): -
- Nicki (9/5): - Clean, spacious, easy to access, well appointed, walking distance to centre of the city.
- Craig (9/5): Very enjoyable stay in central Edinburgh - Very clean and spacious and in a great location All good
- Carmen (10/5): Stupendo, molto British🏴 - L’appartamento è stupendo, completo veramente di tutto, i letti super comodi,bellissimo il salone che si affaccia su un fantastico parco Unica pecca il miscelatore dell’acqua della doccia non funzionava, doccia super bollente
- Ariel (7/5): Everything was great but disturbed sleep - It was very clean and warm Noisy - bad soundproof, noisy traffic facing main road (living room) and noisy construction site at the back (bedroom)
- Gökhan (10/5): - The apartment has been located in good neighborhood and it is close to many shops and great restaurants
- Naomi (10/5): De 10!!! - Todo, destaco la amplitud del apartamento, la decoración y la ubicación. La comunicación con los encargados muy buena también. Quizás que las puertas no se fijaban y daban portazo.
- Carole (10/5): - Appartement très spacieux et confortable, bien équipé et propre. Grandes chambres et bonne literie avec dressings. Deux salles de bains (dont une en suite). Serviettes de toilettes bien épaisses et savon, gel douche et shampooing à disposition. La petite cour privée est très appréciable. Très bien situé. Nous avons tout fait à pied. Bus pour l'aéroport à 10 minutes de marche. La possibilité de laisser les bagages gracieusement de 9h à 17 h au bureau deux rues plus loin. L'arrivée se fait avec beaucoup de facilité mais il est dommage de n'avoir aucun contact sur place. En revanche Destiny communique parfaitement par mail (avec également un numéro de téléphone en cas d'urgence).
Quelques dosettes de café, thé et sucre mais il serait appréciable d'avoir quelques produits de base (huile vinaigre et sel).
Pas de patères dans les salles de bains pour accrocher les serviettes.
Les bruits des pas un peu lourds des voisins du dessus et leurs portes qui claquent. Celles de l'appartement également. Il faudrait régler les grooms afin qu'elles ne se ferment pas aussi violemment.
- Tracey (9/5): Great stay - The apartment was in a great position and easy to access. We didn't have to get in touch with any staff do can't comment on that. Would definitely stay again. No mirror in bedroom to do hair/ makeup. It's a small thing but just add a mirror above the plugs as that bathroom mirror was wsy to low to use x
- KaterinaFioto (10/5): -
- Craig (6/5): Nice and comfortable if your young and fit - Lovely clean modern appartment with everything you need apart from a fish slice to fry and egg. Comfortable altho cold at points but managed to get organised with contact to the staff. Beds comfy extra blanket provided which was nice. That i was staying with my 80 year old dad and step mum who is 70, i requested a bottom floor flat but was up a spiral stair on top floor which was a big struggle with no lifts and luggage.
- Calnan (8/5): overall we have a great stay - the apartment was very spacious and warm. there were great views and it was very quiet and private considering the location. apartment was on the fourth floor with no lift. we only had small bags as we only stayed two nights but more luggage would have been an issue
- Reynolds (8/5): -
- Jakub (9/5): Perfect stay in the charming city - Ladies in office were super nice and helpfull
Location was 10/10
Beautiful huge space You could hear noise from the street because the windows didn't seal properly.
- Gemma (10/5): -
- Clare (10/5): Fabulous stay - Beautifully decorated, spacious and modern apartment in a great location.
- Sara (10/5): -
- Grant (8/5): Good choice for a family - Location and cleanliness A little cold
- Piotr (10/5): - Czysto, przyjemnie, obszernie, jest kawa i herbata, zmywarka, internet, nawet przejściówka w szafie do kontaktu Napiszę im może zmienią :)
Brak deski do krojenia soli i pieprzu 🤣
- Mireille (10/5): Fantastisch, kom nog eens terug - Grote ruime en licht apartement. Op goede plek. Niets. Bed was misschien beetje te hard
- Daniel (8/5): Clean, well maintained and great area - Great location, very clean, all essentials provided and excellent value. Road noise from front living room but certainly quieter during night hours.
- Ju'eta (8/5): Great location and spacious but would’ve been great if gaps on windows were fixed as it got cold. - Great spacious property that was clean and location was fantastic! There were gaps in the windows so it got quite cold because we also had no control of the heating. The living room couch was very uncomfy to sit on as it sunk in. The property was great but the furnishings were somewhat cheap and flimsy.
- Robin (9/5): - Tout. Le bruit de la rue pour la personne qui dort dans le canapé.
- Eyrun Saevarsdóttir (7/5): - The couch was really bad and the apartment very empty, could make it more cozy by adding some furniture and some decorations. The doors to the bedroom were also very loud when opening.
- Oliver (9/5): -
- Dianne (9/5): -
- Jenny (9/5): Great value and Location would stay again - Very helpful and friendly team and able to leave our luggage at their office. Very clean and a great location to explore Edinburgh.
- fiona (5/5): It was pleasant but did meet my expectations - The location was amazing as was the architecture. Two of the chairs in the sitting room broke. My elderly sister sat on one and the leg broke, she fell to the ground just missing the radiator behind her and a possible head injury. This could have easily turned into a visit to the emergency room. She was badly shaken . I let the people at the office know. Also one of the kitchen cabinets was broken. I excepted better as I have stayed at a different apartment run by this agency.
- Thomas (10/5): -
- Wiecz (9/5): -
- Colin (8/5): Highly recommend this if staying in Edinburgh - Location on Queens Street is excellent. You are a two min walk to George Street, 5 Mins to Princes Street and 15 mins to the Royal Mile.
Plenty of good bars and restaurants within 10 mins of the flats.
Flat was spotless, kitchen had everything you need, flat looks well maintained and looked after.
We got a parking space which is a 5 min walk from the apartment which considering the location is excellent. It was also very secure.
Second time we have used Destiny Scotland and we will use them again. When we got there the flat was in the roof space and therefore wasnt as impressive as the flat in the pictures. Quality of furnishings etc was excellent but it was a bit deflating as the trip to Edinburgh was my Wifes birthday treat.
Ask for a ground, 1st or 2nd floor flat. Ground floor flat is about 5 feet up from the pavement so would be fine.
Bedrooms look onto lane at rear so you can get woken by the lorries picking up bottles and refuse from the bars etc but you really have to expect this in a city centre.
These are small niggles and shouldnt put you off booking this place, just things to be aware of.
- Sriboonyapirat (9/5): -
- solomon (10/5): Fantastic stay! Spotless, comfortable, and perfectly located for exploring Edinburgh. - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolutely wonderful stay! The apartment was spotless, beautifully decorated, and exactly as described. The location was perfect for exploring Edinburgh — everything we needed was within easy reach, yet it still felt peaceful and comfortable.
The host was incredibly responsive and thoughtful, making check-in and our entire stay completely stress-free. The bed was very comfortable, the space was well-equipped, and it truly felt like a home away from home.
I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Edinburgh. A fantastic experience from start to finish!
- Angelin (10/5): Perfecto - Estaba completamente equipado con todo en la cocina, tengo un niño pequeño así que era importante para mí poder cocinarle. Todo estaba impecable y limpio. Excelente estado. Me alegra haber elegido este alojamiento, cerca de todo lo que hay que conocer.
- Shelly (5/5): Do not stay here if have special needs. - Location was amazing, we did not have the breakfast, I wasn't aware there was a breakfast. I had requested a ground floor, due to the fact I was traveling with my 86 year old mother. Not only did we not get a ground floor, we were put in the 4th floor, the highest floor available. My mother struggled to get up and down the massive staircase, and there were no lifts available.
- Noela (9/5): Lovely time in spaceous flat. - Easy access with code.
Great area A lot of noise early morning due to construction work behind the building.
Damp smell at entrance
- Kate (10/5): - Location and cleanliness Didnt get a ground floor, as we had a child
- İsmail Serkan (8/5): -
- Erika (7/5): -
- Mcisaac (10/5): - Very nice clean apartment
- Denise (10/5): Great location, clean and comfortable. I definitely recommend this property. - The property was in a location convenient to shops, restaurants and sites in Edinburgh. The check in process was well communicated and access to the property was very easy. Parking was close to the property and easy to access. The apartment was very clean and comfortable and perfect for myself, my daughter and my son to spend time together as well as find privacy if desired.
- Jiaojiao (9/5): Lovely stay - Very spacious, clean and cozy. 15 mins walk to the train station and old town. A few nice brunch options nearby. Staff is friendly. Bathroom doesn’t function very well
- Huaisha (10/5): 不错 推荐给朋友了 - 位置很棒 步行就可以到达火车站 王子街等中心位置 房间很干净 空间很大 我们住的很满意 水龙头打开的时候 房间隔壁会有些声音发出来希望可以维修好 其他都非常完美
- PATRICIA (10/5): -
