5* Stay

The apartment was immaculate and had everything we could possibly need. It was in the perfect position, just a small walk away from the main streets and Christmas Markets/Castle. The bed was also super comfy! We will definitely be booking here next time we visit Edinburgh.

They sent an email with the entry code and a downloadable app that had all the details, days before we were due to arrive. I knew exactly what to expect and how to use their luggage storage. The location is great. It's behind the castle/gardens area and walkable to city and airport transportation, shops, eateries and groceries. The apartment was very clean. If we go back to Edinburgh, we will definitely stay here again.

We were very happy with our Malt House apartment, which was conveniently located in regard to nearby attractions. A couple of minor detractions: 1. The towel heating rail could only be activated by turning up the heating for the whole apartment; 2. Being close to a pub meant there was occasionally some noise from patrons leaving at night [but it was also very handy for a drink and food :) ]. We would certainly stay at the Malt House again.

Stayed just for one night. Definitely would stay again if stopping for longer. Had everything you could need. It’s only downside for me were the towels as I like large bath towels. Be mindful when booking that it doesn’t have a lift

Great clean and spacious apartment

We stayed in ground floor apartment 2 which was very clean and spacious and most things were in great working order. No need to bring anything (although we did as didn’t know this) everything from cutlery, crockery and utensils all supplied as well as toilet roll, kitchen towel and handwash, shampoo, conditioner and shower gel! I would highly recommend these apartments and would stay again. The only down side was there were a couple of plug sockets not working and the neighbours above us were noisy (constant squealing noises!) and also some outdoor noise too but still not enough to spoil out stay.

Heart beat of Edinburgh. Perfect Walking distance to everything you want to see. We didn’t bring a vehicle but took the tram from the airport and it was very convenient. An earlier check in would have been helpful as the shared storage for temporary luggage was not ideal but this was only a minor inconvenience and check in was otherwise very prompt and seamless.

nice place; prepare to pay for parking

destiny scotland offers a discount at two parking garages, but not at the one garage that has in/out privileges. we ended up paying full price for parking. there was a private lot right behind the house that wasn’t used the entire time we were there, so it would have been nice to have access to that lot without worrying about our car being towed.
