I had the best stay at New Town apartments managed by Destiny Scotland. The studio apartment was very clean and well equipped. Very centrally located with shopping and restaurants close by. It was also very quiet so I was able to get great quality sleep. I enjoyed my stay very much and would recommend it to anyone traveling in Edinburgh.

I was a bit nervous of where we had to enter the apartment. It was in a back lane and looked a bit sketchy. The office staff were wonderful and the apartment was great. It was clean and very nice.
