“Fabulous time at Edinburgh as usual 5th year running with Destination Edinburgh. 2nd year at York place couldn’t ask for cleaner well equipped apartments very central for everything staff are lovely. Until next year thank you very much, Marie and the girls.”

Marie & Friends - York Place Apartments - December 2025

“The apartment is well-kept, very spacious and very comfortable. We stayed in the one for 6 people, there were only 4 of us with two bathrooms. Everything was clean and tidy when we arrived, and they even changed our bathroom linens halfway through our stay. The apartment is about a 20-minute walk from the center, but it’s a pleasant walk. In case there are buses very close There is a very good pizzeria nearby and a very good Sardinian restaurant, as well as supermarkets.”

Valeria & Family - Southside Apartments - December 2025

“An incredible flat in the best area for being a tourist in Edinburgh! Such an incredible stay – 7 adults slept comfortably. Stunning place, exactly like the photos, spotless, walkable to EVERYTHING and more! Truly just the best experience. We’ve been traveling around Scotland since and nothing has compared to this place. Came for all the August events and booked last October so book early!!! Thank you so much for the best stay EVER!!

“Fabulous place to stay for a large group in Edinburgh. Ideal central location, spacious and super flexible with making up of beds singes, doubles, twins etc to suit our requirements. Amazing views out over the city too and great communication from Destination Edinburgh. Couldn’t be better, highly recommended!”

The Pearson Family - York Place Apartments - June 2025

“Spent 2 nights at Southside Apartments by Destination with 8 adults and 2 kids. We booked 2 units and it was perfect for big groups! The apartment is spacious and well equipped with everything we need – from kitchen to laundry, hairdryer etc. The beds were massive and extremely comfortable for a good night sleep. Great value for money and exceeded expectations for the price.

There are also plenty of grocers and restaurants along the street within walking distance. Highly recommended!”

The Ling Family - Southside Apartments - March 2025

“We had a fantastic stay at this apartment in Edinburgh! The place was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed, including a fully equipped kitchen. With two comfortable bedrooms, it easily accommodated any group of four.
The location was great — about a 20-minute walk or a quick 5-minute Uber ride to major attractions. The neighborhood was quiet, yet conveniently lined with plenty of restaurants and shops just steps away.
We truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Edinburgh!”
