Fantastic!

The heated flooring in the en suite bathroom was ideal, and the entire apartment was wonderful. The furnishings was everything cosy and practical. The dining room and kitchen all went together flawlessly, and the living room was the ideal size, light, and cleanliness. My niece and daughter adored their accommodation, and the bathroom was the ideal size for doing makeup and other necessities. It's conveniently located near restaurants, cafes, the train station, and buses. On my subsequent trip, I plan to stay there once more.

Lovely central apartment

Lovely apartment. Very central. Well appointed. But noisy but as the bedrooms were at the back of the property in Flat 4 we couldn’t hear the noise from there. Great view of the castle.

Visited Edinburgh for a short stay with family. The apartment is very well located on Princes St and surprisingly quiet other than a couple of sirens. Apartment was extremely clean, modern and very comfortable. Very easy to access the building as well as the apartment with good, clear instructions received from Destiny Scotland. Would definitely come here again.
