Destiny Scotland Hotels in Edinburgh

Any recommendations on Destiny Scotland hotel in Edinburgh? There seem to be quite a few of these apartment hotels. We only have three days and plan to do most of our sightseeing in the Royal Mile area.

Hi Judy,

I just returned from Scotland and stayed at the Destiny Scotland Q-Residence apartment in New Town (23 Queen Street, Apt 1) and loved it!! I had a classic one bedroom. It was very clean and HUGE! It had a living room looking out onto Queen street and a separate kitchen, bathroom and bedroom at the back of the apartment. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Keep in mind they aren't hotels. Destiny Scotland owns quite a few apartment buildings around Edinburgh and there is no reception desk or anything like that. A few days before you arrive you get the access code that allows you to enter the building and the apartment - everything is keyless.

If you decide to book one of their apartments, do it directly from their website. I got a discount for booking multiple nights. You can browse the many apartments on their site and choose the area/apartment that you like the best.

Feel free to send me a private message if you need any more details!
