The apartment was situated across from Waverley Stayion. Ideally placed for all tourists attractions. The apartment was clean and spacious for a one bed apartment. There were all the appliances you would need to be self catering. The apartment was clean. The only downside to our room was that it faced brick walls either side with air conditioning pipes and cooker vents from the food outlets next door which were noisy at night. Air conditioning would have been an asset to the apartment too.

The apartment was beautifully presented and the remotely located management staff were friendly and tried help as much as possible. However the hotels.com booking site did not mention that getting to the apartment involved going up several flights of stairs, involving over 30 steps. We found this difficult because of our age and the amount of luggage we had. Compounding the access problem was we could only leave our luggage at the company's administration office prior to check in, which was almost a kilometre from the apartment. This involved double handling and a long walk on a hot Edinburgh day.

Fabulous experience from start to finish: a good sized room in a second to none location bang on in the centre of Edinburgh, and only a 10 minute walk from Waverley train station. The offices were located within a further 10 minute walk, meaning that we could leave our bags there upon arrival while waiting for the room to become available. We left our bags at the offices again after check-out, meaning we didn’t have to incur any extra charges for luggage storage on our last day.
The room itself was lovely and bright and we had no issues with noise at all. The bed was comfortable enough, though I would have preferred a different (softer) pillows - but I appreciate that this is a personal preference.
The room was ultra clean and when a bulb needed to be changed this was done by the cleaner while we were out of the room.

The only negative was the that one of the pots was super scratched and should be changed for a stainless steel pan as it was firmly part its sell by date.

This location is perfect spot, close to tram, train station, and amazing Edinburgh sites. There was more than enough space in this apartment to feel more like a home away from home. Grocery store is around the corner, and many eateries to explore. Bed was comfy, shower was clean, and having a kitchen was a great option.

They also provided some dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid and clothes washing tabs.
If you park at St James, you can obtain discount for the parking from the hotel's office which is a short walk from the hotel. Definitely worth it.

Updated efficiency unit. Lijed the modern shower stall. Be advised there are MANY stairs at the entrance ~ 1.5 stories before the elevator. Electric door strike to our unit did not open completely so we needed to really shove the door open and closed. The heating system may be lovely in winter but we could not get it to turn down or off. Not responsive to the thermostat. There was a lighter weight blanket and a fan in the unit which helped. Nice having the kitchenette.

Too many negatives

I've tried but I still can't not be mad about the washer. Advertised as having a washer - first night there could not find the washer and there was only an after hours line for emergencies. So I called first thing in the morning and the woman on the phone was absolutely no help. Kept telling me it was in the kitchen. IT WAS NOT IN THE KITCHEN!! I AM NOT STUPID. Tell me once or twice you are trying to help. Tell me five separate times you are saying I am an idiot. The agent should have been able to look up the unit in a file to give details about it.
The washer was in a cabinet BEHIND A CHAIR - no handle or label on the cabinet to suggest it opens and the washer is hiding there underneath the boiler.
The unit is also advertised as having a lift. Partially true - you have to lug your luggage up 33 steps (I counted) to get to the lift to take you the rest of the way up.
Poor noise control - people partying until the wee hours at night, non-stop construction work all morning. Not meant for light sleepers.
No a/c which is usually understandable but it was very hot and there was only a cheap fan - could not open the windows very far and couldn't leave them open because of the noise.
By itself the unit is nice but all of the other factors make it a poor choice for me.

LOCATION! It’s within walking distance of EVERYTHING a tourist will want to do. I actually didn’t realize its incredible location until I arrived. 2 minutes(!) from the train station which is how I arrived. 2 minutes(!) in the other direction for the ($10) tram that takes you to/from the airport! Walking distance to everything. The place itself is all updated. Fells new. Beautiful well equipped kitchen, washer/dryer combo in unit. Love the keyless entry. The ONLY negative is the construction on adjacent bldg (July 2025). Staging area is outside the window, but since they worked during the day, it wasn’t huge inconvenience since I was out tourist-ing during the day anyway. A bit pricey, but worth the splurge for its LOCATION and excellent condition and amenities.

Apartment was great, even for just 2 nights. Good location for getting to and from the train station and walking in Edinburgh. No view- we looked out at the sides of 3 buildings. Kitchenette was easy to work in but no microwave. The biggest disappointment was that the elevator was broken and we had to climb 3 flights of stairs with 3 suitcases and 2 backpacks- after just finishing an 8 day hike adventure. Good thing we are fit 71 year olds.

Great location

Location was ideal for us as we were there for a short time and mostly walking to attractions etc so very handy. The apartment did have stairs to access but very manageable even for us in our sixties!
Apartment was very spacious, clean, tidy, bright, and warm. Need was comfortable and kitchenette and bathroom had everything you need for a short stay. Would happily stay here again. Did have an issue with wifi. Couldn't connect any of 3 devices. It was compounded in part because for some reason i couldn't receive emails from Destiny even when using another wifi. This was despite them even trying while i was in the phone with them. Was a minor issue in the greater scheme of things anyway. We had a good time and very much enjoyed Edinburgh!

Only one flight (30 steps) of stairs to get to the lift. Very old building, clean, updated and modern. For all those with allergies— absolutely no signs of mold or mildew.

An excellent property that was a perfect location for all local amenities. The tram stop was very near and there were many options for dining or having a beer. The National Portrait Gallery was only a couple of hundreds yards away and was excellent. The property was minutes away from Waverley train station. The property itself was excellent and was accurately described. We were very impressed with the office team who put themselves out to accommodate a slightly earlier access on arrival and rang us to tell us when we could get in. Also.when we had a minor issue with the electrics a member of the team turned up in minutes. The property certainly helped us to have a very enjoyable 5 day stay and we will definitely look to use Destiny if we visit the area again.

Very good....but.........

Overall the stay was great,the apartment was very clean and had all the amenities we needed,as well as being in a prime location.
However there were 2 things that let it down slightly for us,
Number 1,our apartment was at the back of the building and it was pretty noisy,with deliveries arriving at 4 am and bins being emptied early on as well,we ended up using ear plugs.
Number 2,during booking it mentioned that there was a lift from the first floor onwards........what wasn't mentioned is the 30 odd steps to climb with luggage before you get to the lift!, anyone with heavy bags or maybe a pram would have really struggled I'd imagine.
Other than that it was fine.

Smells like McDonald’s chips !

The apartment was advertised as being on St Andrews square. This was not quite the case. It turned out we walked from there towards Princes street, and the door of the apartments was right next to a McDonald’s. Not quite the location we thought! However, extremely central! When we entered the apartment building the hall area was functional, but not particularly welcoming. Upon opening the door to the apartment the smell of greasy chips was overwhelming. We worked out the extractor fan of either the McDonald’s or the KFC was outside our window. It was quite frankly disgusting! The room was styled nicely and the bathroom was luxurious, but nothing could distract us from the smell which came in wafts. For this reason I would not stay there again. Our clothes and hair smelled of this smell the whole of the next day!

Be aware that if you book this hotel via Hotels,com or Expedia the hotel will email you around 18hrs before your check in to advise that you must telephone the office & provide credit card details for the security deposit. This is okay if you’re in the UK but might be an issue if you are on a long distance flight. You cannot access the apartment without first providing your details. There is no reception at the property, so be aware that you might find yourself stranded.
The apartment itself is well appointed & comfortable. The lift is on the first floor which might be an issue for you if you have limited mobility (or heavy luggage).

Nice, but outside factors make it a miserable stay

Newly renovated fully stocked apartment very close to train. Room itself is nice and comfortable. However, comfort also includes overall environment. Outside window is an alley full of unsightly dumpsters, seems to be a glass recycling center. At 5am, work trucks with their beeping alarms begin arriving, loading and dumping the glass bottles. It’s extremely loud and impossible to sleep through. Additionally there’s a solar bright light on an adjacent building pointed right to the apartment window. At 2am the room was as bright as daylight. Between the two, it was near impossible to get any sleep. While these are factors outside control of the company, they can take actions to mitigate these issues as again, comfort includes all factors and not being able to sleep is a key element of comfort.

Nice, convenient to trains, but very in morning

Nice accommodation very convenient to the train station. Room is spacious with fully stocked kitchen. Check in is easy with coded entry to main door and room. Marked down the rating from 5-star because the rooms looks out to a dirty back alley that is the location for a lot of unsightly dumpsters. Not only that, we were awoken at 0530 by a constant stream of very loud trucks dumping glass into these large bins. Even with the windows closed it was annoying when we’re trying to sleep. Other rooms that don’t face this alley are likely much better.

Destiny is loud

The Destiny Apartments were clean and well kept. The location made for very easy access to pretty much wherever you want to go in Edinburgh with access to the tram within a 3 minute walk. Multiple historic and monuments, museums, and other amazing locations are also within a short walk.

That said, the apartments can get hot in the summer months as there is no air conditioning (only heating) and the windows only open about 2 inches, making airflow through the apartment minimal. It is also immediately off a busy street and near several bars and nightlife, which are all active until well into the night, so if you’re looking for a quiet place - this is not it.

The apartment was beautiful and the location could not be beat. Steps from restaurants and parks and close to the action of Princes street. However a couple of things were less than ideal. First, the dryer was inoperable. Clothes would was and the heat of the dryer would come on, but the clothes wouldn’t dry. Second, the windows let in a significant amount of light at night, this combined with no fans, made sleep a bit challenging.

Overall a really nice place but a couple of improvements couple be made to be an outstanding experience.

There is no guide to work out what level to get out of escalator. Blinds did not block out the light coming through the window, which i had to open due to heat. Very noisy at night and in the morning.

Good location though.

Destiny Scotland - St. Andrew's Square was the perfect location for our visit to Edinburgh. Less than 5 minutes from the train station as well as other transportation (Airlink bus to the airport was especially handy). Plenty of restaurants in the area - Rose Street was our favorite place to find dinner. Close to Sainsbury's for groceries as well.

The apartment had everything we could need for a long-term stay and was comfortable enough. The washer/dryer combo wasn't as useful as we would've liked - it took a long time to work through the cycles and was noisy. But overall, we would stay here again.

The apartment was lovely and in an excellent location close to Waverley train station, the bus station, tram and Princes Street. It was comfortably furnished and well equipped. I really enjoyed my stay. The only things to be aware of are the stairs up to the first floor which were only an issue when I had to drag a heavy suitcase up. I also had to pay to store luggage at the station as there is no storage at the property itself.

Large and Comfortable

We stayed in a Superior Studio, and it was our favorite lodging of the vacation. The separate living area with a large sectional and a table for 4 made the space quite functional for us. The sectional had a couple of minor stains on it, but it was clean.
The washing machine confused me at first, but that always happens in Europe. The confusion was my own fault, since the instructions were pretty clear. The hotel provided laundry detergent, which was nice. The washing machine is in the room, so you don't have to share it with other hotel guests. The \"dryer\" is a drying rack, and it worked fine. The bathroom was comfortable. The location was very convenient. We never met any hotel staff, but check-in went fine. The hotel texted a code to me about an hour before check-in, and I was able to use the code to get into the building and to get into my room. I liked not have a room key to keep track of.
The rooms are above a couple of fast food restaurants, and people always seemed to be hanging out in front of the restaurants. It didn't feel dangerous, but we did see people hanging out on the street whenever we entered or left the building. Not a problem in my opinion.
I'd definitely stay there again.

Great, central location apartment

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was incredibly central, easy to find and I liked the no contact aspect of it. You just receive a code for the door the day before you arrive - all very easy! The apartment was clean, modern and well maintained.
My only gripe was although there was more than enough room for a king size or even super king bed, there was only a double bed (and a small double at that!) so my partner and I struggled a bit with that and for two nights my partner slept on the sofa instead because there was more room. But other than that a very lovely stay and I would highly recommend
