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

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.
4.7
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.

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.
4.7
It was a great stay. Very clean and well cared for. Two things prevent me from giving it a top rating 1. The bed was a bit a hard and 2. A fan would have been nice. 3. I never received an email about check in procedures. Otherwise location was great, it was clean, and I got great help when I called for check in info.
4.7
Overall the property is excellent. Located in a central position close to amenities and the property is nicely appointed.
Disappointed greatly due to issues with the washing/dryer which wasn’t working properly. It wouldn’t dry our items and continued to wash them causing clothing to be ruined due to colour ruining. Cleaning staff and maintenance person tried to assist but unfortunately the damage was done to our clothing. Other than that the place is good.
4.7
Excellent flat, great location . Would thoroughly recommend
4.7
This property has everything you need and is absolutely perfect for exploring Edinburgh. Just down the road from Edinburgh Castle, round the corner to the tram stop & bus stop back to the airport and also a short walk to Princes Street & Queen Street. Within walking distance of most stuff, so it certainly ticked all of the boxes. It also was lovely & clean with so much space, it was a very comfy & welcoming apartment. Would definitely book again

Location is everything! The Tram from the airport stops at the corner of Canning Street and we walked about 300 feet to the apart. The luggage storage was great - we had the best Sunday roast at the corner pub (Fox & Faun) then we went to the Sainsbury’s grocery store half a block away and did some shopping before checking in. The 2 bedroom apartment was spacious, clean, well stocked, and the beds were comfortable. The washer/dryer was a bonus! We appreciated the black out curtains because the sunset in the summer months is late.
The apartment was close to everything and was walkable to all the local places we wanted to visit. The digital code entry made check-in very easy. We very much enjoyed our stay and loved the corner window view. Thank you.
4.7
Grest base to explore the amazing city of Edinburgh.
4.7
It is located in a fantastic location just 2 blocks from the West End Tram stop. I did think the beds were a little uncomfortable, but sleepable. Also, the washer/dryer in our unit was broken which was a bummer because we had planned to do laundry while we were traveling.
4.7
Except for having to drag our luggage up 4 flights of stairs, this was a very nice place to stay. It had all the conveniences of home! It was quiet, near transportation and within easy walking distance of the Royal Mile! We had a fantastic time in Edinburgh❤️
4.7
Amazing apartment! Wonderful location.
4.7
Could be stunning but misses the little touches
4.7
loved the apartment, well maintained and well kitted out for a city centre break
location was excellent, near the city centre and trams for Airport etc
easy entrance/exit via personal access code and communication was excellent, responding quickly to a question I had on a Saturday
4.7
Enjoyed my stay and will certainly use again
4.7
Cannot fault this property at all. The location was perfect for a 5 day stay in Edinburgh. Communication and support when needed were spot on. Destiny Scotland had thought of everything - even down to leaving us a couple of washing detergents/dishwasher tablets, airers for laundry, iron alongside bedding, towels, hair dryers etc. The apartment was beautifully furnished, spacious and a perfect relaxation spot. Also impressed by the security of the property - gated entrance with code, and a secure luggage storage area which we used on arrival and departure. Will be back and will recommend to others too!
4.7
Great location for both the Old Port and the Stadium
4.7
At first glance, this is a beautiful apartment and large enough to feel comfortable after smaller spaces mostly throughout the country. On the plus side, the comfy sofa, the tv, the high pressure shower, big fridge and all the appliances. However, the bed is unfortunately far from comfortable (springs) and we had some problems with the appliances: woke us up in the early morning beeping without reasons.
4.7
In great condition and easy to communicate with.
4.7
This property was perfectly located with a 20 minute walk to the Royal Mile, and only 10 minutes from Princes Street so loads of shopping and wonderful dining close by. A local pub is a one minute walk with friendly staff and good food as well! We stayed in a two bedroom apartment and the space was perfect with lots of closet room also. Everything was completely spotless, and we received excellent communication throughout our stay.
4.7
Amazing appartment, really central and everything we needed.
4.7
Easy to find and very central. Lovely spacious apartment with great facilities. Just what we needed Lovely thick fluffy towels and toiletries. Communication was excellent. For those not booking direct you need to be aware that they require a refundable deposit Would definitely stay again.
4.7
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.
4.7
We had an amazing time in the Malt apartment - the place is huge and well planned out. The beds are nice and the bathroom is great - we didn't use the kitchen but it had everything needed. Loved that there was recycling.
It is also a calm area, good eating spots close by, close to city centre and tram to the airport. And great with luggage room available before checkin.
Small things: ventilation in bathroom was a bit noisy and going at night / we were three but only two duvets had sheets on
4.7
Amazing space with full kitchen and laundry to boot! Had a few issues getting access info to get into the property prior to arriving but once this info was in hand, just loved our time there.
4.7
These apartments are spacious and very clean. We stayed here almost 2 weeks and found the location to be excellent. There was a cleaning after one week which was very nice. The cleaning people were very helpful when we needed extra towels and toilet paper. They are in the building every day cleaning other apartments so easy to speak with. On the weekend the noise level can be disturbing from other guests especially when they get drunk and yell to each other. The apartment doors close by themselves and make a loud sound and that can be annoying too if you spend a lot of time in the apartment and the other ones are occupied.
We will definitely stay here again in the future.
4.7
The flat was spacious and clean with everything we needed. Less than a mile walk from Weaverly train station and loads of shopping and food options within a short walk. It was perfect for us.
4.7
Excellent apartment very close to the heart of the city, we attended a concert at the Usher Hall which was a couple of minutes away. Very comfortable and spacious two bed apartment with everything you might need. I’d book again.
4.7
Apartment was great, everything you need, plenty of space, received email 2 days before arrival with details on to gain entry. Would definitely book apartments again.
Parking was 5 mins walk from apartment and they have a contact with NCP £15 for for 24 hours
4.7
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.
4.7
Very accessible just at a stones throw from the tram, walking distance to lots of the sights. A perfect base.
4.7
Very nice stay so central for us. Have already booked again. Thanks
4.7
Only thing was no corkscrew! So we left one. Apart from that it was a beautiful apartment, really clean and an awesome location!
4.7
We regularly return to Edinburgh at least twice a year and this trip was an Anniversary celebration. We normally stay around the Royal Mile but found the Malt House Apartments on Hotels.com and decided to give them a go. A grand find and a very good location, five minutes stroll to Princes Street and plenty in the surrounding area to see and do. We normally travel up by train but due to engineering works, drove up. Pre-booked car-parking with Q-Park at the OMNI and very safe and secure.
It's a short walk from the apartments to the Castle and up onto the Royal Mile. A good selection of shops and bars around and about the Apartment (recommend Dine Edinburgh for a treat - very nice). The Malt House are a very peaceful location and no noise from other apartments either. All-in-all, we've had many, many overnight stays in Edinburgh and would return to the Malt House. Very nice.
4.7
Clever design. Well equipped. We liked the privacy and independence of this studio flat.
4.7
Great location. Spacious, contemporary surroundings. Easy to use. Will definitely rebook again.
4.7
Good location. Clean modern apartment.
4.7
Great location and 2 bed apartment was a really good size for our family of 4. The apartment could do with a bit of TLC in some places but in general was really clean and all furniture comfortable.
Couple of minor issues which if resolved I would have given the place full marks. One of the bedroom windows doesn’t close properly which means you can hear lots of noise from outside. Also the external sign for the apartments was banging repeatedly in the wind overnight so that disturbed our sleep!
We did email and call as instructed within 24 hours of arrival to request an early check in (which we knew wasn’t guaranteed but we only wanted an hour early) and was told we’d get a phone call back but the call never arrived. So communication could have been better there.
Despite these small mentions we would still recommend the apartments and would definitely consider them again.
4.7
Beautiful simple furniture, clean and great location
