Reviews of Destiny Scotland - St Andrew Square Apartments
Princess Wishart
I can't fault this apartment at all. It is perfectly located for exploring the Old Town and the New Town on foot. It is less than 5 minutes on foot from the tram stop that goes directly to and from the airport, so the location is brilliant if you are exploring Edinburgh on foot or doing some shopping or visiting the cinemas etc. And the quality of the apartment is excellent too. The bed is really ...

The hotel is closer to the train station that you can have many transportation options to do the sightseeing. A clean and comfortable room with all cooking equipment you need to cook meals. I am high recommend this hotel to everyone except who needs a wheelchair. It is because the lift is located at 1/F.
Roma Starczewska
Fantastic location, within easy walking distance for most of the main attractions. Princess Street & Edinburgh's main train station are just around the corner. The apartment is beautifully presented, contains everything you need, is spotlessly clean & quiet despite being just off the main street. Destiny Scotland are very well organised. Checking in was a breeze as they sent very clear instruction...

Absolute horror! Booked this place because it was one of the few with elevators. Got a message the day of check-in saying elevator broke down. IT NEVER GOT FIXED for the entire 7 days I was there. From the looks of it, it has been down for a period of time and owners have no intention to fix it. Bathroom sink was literally palm-sized and smells bad from the fast food exhaust nearby and clogged up...

Five stars for this apartment. It's in the centre of Edinburgh, easy to find. The room has everything that you need. We stayed here only one night but we consider to be back in Edinburgh in the future and we surely consider Destiny Scotland Apartments to find an accommodation. Excellent service. Thank you
