Very clean and comfortable, especially the bed. Great location. The only blip was that the directions in the App took us to the wrong address - there are two buildings pretty much adjacent to each other. To be fair, the correct address was in the email but the fact that there are two buildings could have been stressed, and we could have avoided a panick-stricken 10 mins in the rain trying to get the code to work on the wrong door. This was resolved by contacting the emergency number, the person who helped us out was great. Would definitely use again.

This place was amazing! My husband and I really enjoyed this gem. It had everything we needed with the comfort of feeling like home instead of a hotel. Its conveniently located to everything (shops, restaurants, buses, entertainment, parks, and of course, Edinburgh castle). The only time we took any sort of transportation was to/from the airport and the bus for our tour. We happily walked everywhere during our stay because the location was really that exceptional. The sights were stunning and because we visited during their annual Edinburgh Festival Fringe, we were even able to see a few performers from our window too. In addition, we were able to enjoy getting a glimpse of the fireworks from the evening Military tattoo performance that took place outside of the castle. I would highly recommend Destiny Scotland Hanover apartments and would book all my stays with them in the future. It was easy to check in, communicate if assistance was needed (via app or their office which was a few blocks away), and overall was a wonderful place to stay. The only neutral comment was that people should be aware that you would have to walk up several flights of stairs before getting to your room. After a long day of taking in the sights and enjoying edinburgh life, those stairs are an extra workout.

It was close to almost everything. With the warmer temperatures they I was happy that they had at least one fan. I would suggest that they get more. For the summer time.

A wonderful, airy and well kept apartment. It’s right in the middle of Edinburgh and a stones throw from the National Gallery. Shops are round the corner of all varieties. Restaurants, coffee shops to choose between. It was the ideal place to stay.

The property was in the middle of Edinburgh activity. Close to Edinburgh Castle. The only thing that would make this property fantastic would be a lift. The stairs were tough after walking the streets of Edinburgh. We wish our schedule had been longer in Edinburgh. Thank you for a great stay!

A perfect property with beautiful views, ample space, functional amenities, great location, easy communication. Luggage storage nearby. NO ELEVATOR. If you are on third floor with heavy international luggage, look elsewhere. For us, it was a perfect stay:)

The apartment was very nice and the view was outstanding as you can see the castle from the living room windows. You do have to carry your luggage up three flights of stairs as there is no lift.

Really well equipped place with everything you need. We had a one bed apartment in a fab location. Only thing to say is we obviously didnt read the small print. Thereis no lift. Three flight's of stairs after a day pounding the streets was abit hard, but over all worth it. Less than 10 minutes from Waverley station so very central.

First off the girls that work in the office are AMAZING. They helped us tremendously. I would recommend this place . Pros This place is in a great location. We had room # 4. Walking distance to everything. It is a large clean apartment with views of the city and castle . The bathroom was clean and had great water pressure. Keyless entry was great. There was coffee and tea. Everything you could want . Cons Check in is 3pm and when your flight gets u in at 8am and after a long time of time it makes it for a VERY long exhausting day. There is no elevator and its 50 or more steps up with luggage in tow. There is no Air conditioning and the windows only open a crack and there are no screens so bugs fly in. We did have a fan and that helped a bit. You can hear the cars on the street and bag pipers in the morning. The room was on the noisier side.
