蘇格蘭天意 - 薊街公寓(Destiny Scotland - Thistle Street Apartments)

Stayed at 23 Thistle Street South West Lane in Apartment 11, which was on 6th floor - thankfully this building has a lift! I was with my teenage daughter for a some shopping and a night away together and this was the perfect base to reach shops and restaurants, and to get to from the train station. We left our bags both before and after our stay in the Destiny offices just round the corner which was perfect for us. The apartment was really well presented; bathroom is lovely with a great shower, bed was comfortable, kitchen immaculate, and bedding/towels really good quality. Would absolutely stay here again.

Great location! Nice, clean and everything you need for two on a short stay in Edinburgh. We stayed in the ground floor apartment. Less than ten minutes walk from Waverley station with all the fantastic shopping, eating and drinking opportunities on your doorstep. No key system took just seconds to understand and means you can’t lock yourself out! A few light bulbs need replacing but generally everything was clean and in good order, with provision to leave suitcases close by means that we’ll use this company again.

Perfect location for enjoying this beautiful city and its attractions. Extremely clean, comfortable and modern. Greeted with a selection of beverages to put us on until we located a shop and also noticed how warm and welcoming the apartment was when we followed the simple instructions to enter the building. We enjoyed the short walk from this lovely apartment to visit bars, restaurants and popular attractions.

Excellent location. Fairly quiet side street. Amenities were good. Large rooms, very clean. Short of some dishes and serving spoons but we made do. Great staff were helpful with early bag drop off at the office location, 28 Thistle St. Would definitely return.

Enjoyed a 2 night stay with our friends. It was exactly what we wanted - 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a comfortable living area and a well equipped kitchen. The location was great. Would stay here again.

We expected better. It was a spacious 2 bed, 2 bath apartment on the second floor. Views of a hotel room opposite and a covered car parking area at the rear. Loud bottle emptying/breaking glass every morning. It was clean and beds were made up. Towels decent sized. Location is very good. Kitchen had minimal equipment. Virtually no baking equipment and no coffee machine. Definitely under equipped. The worst aspect was no hot water or heating. The boiler clearly had a fault (it said so on it) but no one fixed it before our arrival. My husband got the hot water sorted but we had to wait a day for the central heating to work. It’s not good enough. TV was fine but sofa and chair had no scatter cushions. Pictures showed cushions. This made the sofa somewhat uncomfortable as it’s a cheap one. Post COVID, they really should be back. The flat felt bleak, grey and not homely. The location makes up somewhat for the shortcomings (bed not great either) but no hot water is unacceptable .
