Arbroath Vacations from SAR1,753

Broughton Street is perfectly located for a visit to Edinburgh. You are within walking distance of restaurants, pubs, shops, and key places to visit - Edinburgh Castle, for example. The Destiny Scotland Flat is well designed with a downstairs kitchen, full bathroom, and living room/dining room. Upstairs you have a loft bedroom and a master bedroom with a full bath. The only issue I had was the lack of circulation in the master bedroom. I love fresh air and there are no windows that can be opened. Just make sure you run the fan.

We stayed for 2 nights in this apartment hotel. We had our 2 year old with us, and this was a fantastic stay for a few reasons. 1. The team is highly communicative and amenable to requests. Originally they had given us a baby cot, but my toddler has outgrown it - so they were gracious enough to give us an extra bed, with no extra charge. They accommodated an early check-in to make us comfortable. 2. The room while small, was exceptionally well designed. Even with a pull-out bed, a sofa, a small dining table - we never felt cramped. The furnishings were modern and high quality, and having a small kitchenette in the room was helpful. 3. The location is amazing - a short walk from the Royal Mile, and on a street that was quiet at night. They have rooms that face the castle - though they were sold out of those during our stay. 4. Finally, it's the small things that make a good stay great. They left a super cute soft-toy for my toddler on our departure date, which he absolutely loved. One small downside - you have to take a staircase with about 20 steps to get to the rooms. There are no elevators to carry your suitcases. This wasn't a big issue for us, but if you are mobility impaired, it could be a challenge.

This was our 5th annual 7+ day stay at the hotel. We love the amenities, hotel staff, location, Breakfast Buffet, "Fun" library! Just one bothersome aspect, consistent through the 5 years: The motion-sensor lights in toilet and shower! A night-light would be enough! When one gets up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, the bright light is jarring and can make it difficult to get back to sleep.
