Perfect location and noise bearable (with ear plugs) as on main road. Apartment was well kitted out and no real issues. A tiny (and cheap) thing but may needed for shower as very slippy and none provided so had to use a towel, not ideal. Only thing that is likely to prevent is staying again is quality of mattress - too soft and so not terribly comfortable sleep. If replaced for better quality one then would certainly do so.

We were only staying overnight as at a concert at the castle. We checked in at 3pm and left, returning at midnight. So didn't manage to experience all aspects of the apartment. Check in great. Apartment 12, very spacious and perfunctory. No frills really for the price.Difficulty getting TV channels. No microwave; no instructions how to use the Nespresso machine so didn't bother. Only one type of t-bags and basic nescafe coffee sachets. 4 small white sugar sachets and 4 uht milk pots, not forgetting 2 tiny Biscoff biscuits. For the price and rating, would expect a pint of fresh milk and a good selection of hot drinks products. Products in the bathroom are excellent. The king size bed was a let down - not comfortable at all - neither of us slept well. Had a good electric fan which was a necessity as it was warm. The apartment was spotless and comfortable. Didn't hear any noise from neighbours at all. I think that to realise its full potential you'd have to stay longer. Well placed for accessing Haymarket Train Station, Trams and buses. All in all a brief but relaxing stay.

Apartment is very clean, check in was easy, location is convenient. A few things to note:
-the listing states there is a king size bed however, this is a UK king size bed, which is definitely not the same as what you would be used to in the US. It is similar to a US double or full size.
-there is no air-conditioning and you can only open the windows about 2 inches so even if it is fairly temperate outside, it will be very hot in the apartment. It would be helpful if they put in some sort of whole house fan system or ceiling fans.
-they should provide some instructions on how to use the washing machine and dishwasher.
-We were not advised that anyone would be entering the apartment during our stay. After a few days, someone came in while we were gone and gave us more toilet tissue and towels however, if we had known someone was entering the apartment, we would have put things away, like passports, etc.

Loved the location, close to grocery store, restaurants, train/tram & bus station. It’s a very busy area with traffic & people walking about, but that noise is barely noticeable inside. The flat was well appointed and comfortable, with a small kitchen & all you’d need to cook a meal. The bathroom had shelf space above the vanity, which is one reason I chose this flat. The bed was comfortable and the bedroom was in the back, making for a nice quiet nights sleep. The only issue we had (as foreigners) was the combination w/d really needs to have directions posted near it. The directions received in an email seemed to be for a different unit, so we struggled with how to use the appliance. Other than that, we loved the old building and the walkability of the neighborhood and its proximity to the Edinburgh Castle & Royal mile. We would definitely recommend The Distillers House to anyone we know who might visit in the future.

We loved having an entire apartment to ourselves for the duration of our stay in Scotland! It was near a lot of great restaurant/food options, and just a short walk to the train station and a tram stop. It was a little outside of the heart of Edinburgh, so it was much quieter than it would have been if it had been more central, but we liked that!
We didn’t realize we had booked a lower-level (basement) apartment, and I would not do that again. It was pretty dark and damp, which we weren’t fans of. There was also a pretty large spider in the shower that sent my child crawling out of her skin (yes, critters happen, but I would attribute this guys presence to us being in the basement). Everything felt damp because of the humidity in the apartment, so we just felt sticky all the time.
That being said, I’ve heard the upper level apartments are lovely, and I think we would have had a better experience had we been in one of those. It really is a beautiful property, and I’d recommend it others - just make sure you book an upstairs apartment.

There is no staff on the property. Also, there is no elevator on the property and the stairs are steep. If you are solo traveling and staying at this property, make sure you can carry whatever you pack. The room is big, but annoying details like no TV in the bedroom and the tv present, you have to log into some streaming service to use it. Property would be best for business travelers or people having a longer stay so you can grab groceries and navigate the distance to old town.

Very Clean room and felt mainly like condominium. Room was close to main road but the bedroom didn't had any noise. Wish coffee pods and towel service was better. They only had welcome coffee pods; Only 4 for 3 days of stay :(. Only pair of towels for entire stay! Which mainly odd for so much you spend for staying for relaxation. Bathroom was clean but oddly the shower didn't had closer

The check-in information provided was accurate. As the accommodation is unstaffed, access via the keypad was straightforward and efficient; however, this setup also limits the possibility of early check-in, even when the apartment may be available.

While the listing did mention stairs, the two flights of spiral staircases were more challenging than expected and may be worth noting more prominently for future guests.

The washing machine worked well, but the washer-dryer combination was less effective, particularly given Edinburgh’s weather, where outdoor drying is often not an option.

The location was excellent, with plenty of cafés, shops, and public transport nearby. It was also conveniently close to the city centre, with easy tram access to and from the airport.

Check in was very smooth. We got an email with the code and it worked perfectly. Common rooms and our room were lovely and very clean with lots of space, storage, and natural light. We had an issue and they fixed it the next day when I emailed about it. Plenty of utensils, plates, variety of glasses, etc. Fridge was a mini fridge. Laundry and dish soap provided. The washer/dryer was a nightmare. We tried several cycle options but it always came down to either wet cloths or a 3 hour drying cycle (and one you start you cant get your cloths out until its done). Our 1st floor room let in some street noise and on the weekend especially people were walking by and chatting until late in the night. There is heat but no air conditioning although 2 small fans were provided. Some windows opened a few inches but some were painted shut. 1 full bathroom with shower and then 1 extra shower (but no sink or toilet). I would 100% recommend this place as long as you have no plans to do laundry, are not a very light sleeper, and do not get warm easily. I'd stay again except in the summer.

Tons of food and things to do nearby and everything is walkable.

I'd really recommend Distiller's House, our apartment was immaculately clean & very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped & the tea & coffee sachets etc were a nice touch, as was the coffee maker.

All communication was done via WhatsApp which was handy & straightforward.

Distiller's House is in a lovely quiet neighbourhood, but is so convenient for Haymarket train station & the West End tram stop. There's a few nice pubs very close by & a fabulous Italian restaurant about a two minute walk.

I'd definitely return to Distiller's House in the future, the only (very minor) issue I had was that our apartment had only the one mirror (in the bathroom) which wasn't ideal for two of us trying to get ready at the same time. I wear contact lens & had to squeeze myself into the gap between the toilet & sink to insert and remove my lens. A wall mirror (or something similar) in the bedroom area would be really convenient.
So I would recommend bringing a small mirror (either handheld or that you can prop up on the table) if you are staying in apartment 12.

Aside from that, Distiller's House did not disappoint, the communal areas are very elegant & again, absolutely spotless...highly recommended.

I absolutely loved my stay at Destiny Scotland’s Distillers House. The building is stunning, classic Edinburgh charm with modern, stylish interiors. My apartment was spacious, spotless, and beautifully furnished with high ceilings and all the comforts of home, including a full kitchen and washer/dryer.

The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk from Haymarket Station and close to major attractions like Princes Street and the Royal Mile, yet tucked away enough to feel peaceful. Self-check-in was smooth, and communication with staff was prompt and professional.

Everything felt well thought out, from the high-quality linens to the great shower and fully equipped kitchen. Though there’s no elevator, I had no issues with the stairs, but it’s something to keep in mind for those with mobility concerns.

Overall, this was the perfect home base for exploring Edinburgh. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, stylish, and convenient place to stay.

Lovely relaxing stay

It was a lovely stay. We really appreciated how easy it was to check in and having the “personal” code to get onto the building and into our apartment. It was located right where we needed to be so that we could walk everything we wanted to do because we didn’t want to get a rental car. The only thing I would recommend is either a noise maker or ear plugs (or both) because you are right in the city and there is a lot of noisy traffic.

Stylish, Spacious, and Central

We had a fantastic stay at Destiny Scotland - Distillers House. The apartment was spotlessly clean, spacious, and tastefully decorated. The bed was very comfortable, and the kitchen was well-equipped for our needs — ideal for both short and extended stays.

One of the biggest advantages is the location: it’s central yet quiet, with easy access to Princes Street, Haymarket, and the West End. We loved being able to walk to great cafes, restaurants, and attractions, all within minutes.

Self check-in was smooth and convenient with clear instructions provided in advance. The communication with the property was prompt and professional throughout.

We appreciated the thoughtful touches like quality toiletries, soft towels, and plenty of storage space. A great choice for anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and stylish base in Edinburgh.

Comfy & convenient; no lift & poor soundproofing

Good location, clean and comfortable space, well equipped apartment, plenty of good food sources of all sorts within easy reach - we enjoyed our stay.

There are imperfections, of course!
Quite noisy - we were on the 2nd floor but were still woken by the street cleaning truck.
Don't book if you have any mobility or balance issue: from the hidden door step to the narrow, winding, carpeted stairs, the slip-and-trip opportunities are plentiful.
Also, it puzzles me why a spacious place has only a queen bed.
No matter, we'll likely be back.

Great location, easy to get there from the airport, lovely restaurants nearby and close to all the tourist stuff. Great apartment, really well equipped and nicely presented. Couple of relatively minor points- the apartment is quite big, the bed is too small and not that comfy. Also in the small dressing room there’s a full length mirror & storage but no place to plug anything in. Other than that a really good and easy would have happily stayed longer.

Booked a comfort double, got a 2 bed apartment in the basement, so review is based on that.

Good: well appointed with solid build and craftsmanship with furniture and decor in as-new condition. Comfy bed, great bathroom and shower, spacious lounge diner.
Bad: bedrooms themselves are tiny so cases had to be opened and unpacked in the living area.
No elevator but stairs are steep, narrow and winding.
Basement room looked out on a wall and was noisy with traffic and tram

Pretty Good

The apartment we stayed in was great. We especially loved being able to make breakfast every morning. It was clean, well-maintained, and communication for the most part was good. We did call the \"emergency\" after-hours number a couple of times but no one answered. Emails were answered quickly, though, even on the weekend.

As others have said, the location is quite loud. On our final night, there were crews working on the street right below our windows at two in the morning. Earplugs allowed us to go back to sleep.

Note: there is no lift, which means trekking up three flights of stairs if you're on the second floor.

Two suggestions: have better washer-dryer combo instructions available since even by searching the model #, it's impossible to find them online. Second, a couple of extra throws or blankets.

Overall, Destiny Scotland -Distiller's House was quite nice. Very nice neighborhood. About 15-20 minute walk to the Royal Mile and Edinburgh Castle. Lots of nearby restaurants and other services. I'm from the US. It's unusual to rent a place and have zero physical interaction with anyone at all. I was emailed a door access code, both for the front security door and our room. We were on the 3rd fld a fair climb. Also,)

An extraordinary regal decorated lobby and adjunct rooms worthy of a Hollywood set. The room was one of the smallest in which I have ever stayed yet comfortable and all amenities however the shower/tub is incomplete and allows for water spray all over.

The apt smelled of smoke at every re-entry.
Please add instructions to the washer dryer. We tried numerous options and ended up with wet cloths in the suitcase

Easy and comfortable

After a long day of traveling it was very nice to be able to get in so easily. Very clean and comfortable. Only thing I would suggest is to have a hair dryer available, unless I just couldn’t find it.

We had a lovely stay. Great to have the two bedrooms and living space. All of Edinburgh was very walkable and the people were so friendly and welcoming.

A home away from home

What a wonderful stay! Right by the tram and bus station! Right outside the royal mile. Far enough from all the tourist hustling and bustling, but close enough to walk to most of the attractions. About 15 minute walk to the castle and the royal mile. We will be coming back! The apartment is very clean, very well stoked with washer, dishwasher, fridge, pots and pans, silverware and dinnerware. Beautiful and quiet. We got a one bedroom apartment and had more than enough space for the two of us. I’d say, this size apartment would be very well suited for a family. There are several great places where locals go to eat and drink. Loved the Jolly Botanist bar and restaurant. Highly recommend!

The best stay of my 3 country vacation

A wonderful stay at an apartment that quickly felt like home. Everything was immaculately clean, the linens fresh, and the bed very comfortable. I'll take this over a hotel room any day of the week. Also - the little things like a kettle and a Nespresso were a welcoming touch.

Everything you need , clean and well laid out , the only issue I had was the hardness of the mattress, its a personal thing but I found it much too hard, a topper would have made a big difference- in every other way its a perfect apartment

Lovely stay

Location was close to the main attractions, many bus stop within walking distance. Comfortable and spacious place. Kitchen was equipped to prepare simple meals, would have been better if they provided some cooking oil, salt, pepper.
Bathroom is in very good condition.
No lift and we were on the highest floor, had to carry the luggage up the stairs.
Came with washer dryer, which was useful for a long stay. But they only provided 2 laundry capsule.

Enjoyed a 2-night stay in September 2023. Flat was very spacious for a couple (the largest we stayed at of 5 different Ireland and Scotland rentals on our holiday) and a great blend of preserved Victorian elegance and modern conveniences. Walkable for two recent retirees to Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Mile and Waverly train station. We used a cab to reach the flat from the airport but tram would have also worked. Treat yourself to Scottish food and brews at Nicholson’s Freehouse on the same block for great pub and sports atmosphere.

Property overall is decent. The property is very spacious inside and well equipped. Everything is automated but no parking and tough to find some if you drive and also no elevators which made it tough for us being on 3rd floor with 2 kids.
