We had a great stay. The apartment is spacious and very well appointed, it has a beautiful view of the Meadows and is within walking distance to many of the tourist attractions. It is also perfectly situated if your visit has anything to do with the University of Edinburgh, which is right at their doorstep. There are a few very good places to eat nearby, as well as a couple of grocery stores that are open until late.

Beautiful location and view. Marc was there when we arrived to give us a quick tour and get us checked in. It felt very luxurious and exactly like the pictures on Expedia. It had everything we needed travelling with an infant. So central to everything. We will definitely be coming back on our next trip back to Edinburg.

Can’t wait to go back!

Beautiful, modern apartment with all amenities included. It was just a short walk from the centre of Edinburgh. Hosts were helpful and met us on arrival to show us to parking and then the apartment opposite. They were very knowledgeable about the area and even helped us with bags.

This is a good sized apartment in a beautifully renovated building with an elevator which is a rarity in Edinburgh. The property is in a perfect location in old town close to tourist sites as well as to Edinburgh University campus. The flat has all the amenities for a comfortable short term stay. I've stayed at various rentals while visiting my daughter and this was one of the most comfortable and convenient.

Good location but very hot apartment

Good location very modern block but just so hot inside. Had to leave both windows open for air so very noisy then. Bath very deep with no grab rails so if your less than agile like us you'd struggle to get out. Shower in bath also difficult to get in and out with nothing to hold onto

We loved our stay at the quartermile, the location, cleanliness and overall feel was great. However, the shower was very poor, it had virtually no power and for the price of the room you would expect a higher quality. There was also the issue of a broken bed side lamp and the absence of any sort of lamp in the living room(we thought it would have made it a little more homely). The couch was also exceptionally small and more for aesthetic than a functional couch; it would have been nice to have had a “cosier” living room area. Overall though, it was a lovely experience and would come back just with potentially a different room.

Great Experience at Quartermile Serviced Apartment

I recently stayed at the Quartermile Serviced Apartment, and I had a great experience. The host was incredibly friendly and made the check-in process easy and welcoming. The location is excellent, conveniently close to local attractions and transportation, which made exploring the area hassle-free. The room itself was spacious and well-equipped. I appreciated having a kitchenette and laundry machine, which made it feel like a home away from home. While the services were limited (as it’s not a traditional hotel), the apartment provided everything needed for a comfortable stay. Overall, I would definitely recommend Quartermile Serviced Apartment to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located place to stay with the added convenience of in-room amenities.

Property manager was unaccommodating. We did not receive a check in email as we did by at least 6 other properties while traveling for many weeks prior. The manager insisted we did receive instructions and it turned out it was a 9 month old email received when we booked last year. We were unable to get discounted parking because we did ot respond last year. We also needed an additional blanket and manager wanted an explanation why. We ended up buying one on our own. Property itself was as promised and as pictures indicated. It was serviceable and provided enough space for a family. Kitchen was also as promised. Would choose another property next time only due to poor service.

Fantastic stay at Quartermile Serviced Apartments⭐

Had a lovely stay at this Quartermile apartment - spotless, spacious and tastefully decorated, it has a warm and inviting atmosphere. Good central location for exploring the city on foot, close to fantastic restaurants and shops with great public transport links, yet the apartment itself is quiet and peaceful, allowing for restful nights. Our fifth time staying with this host and they are always incredibly hospitable and responsive, going above and beyond with attention to detail to ensure our stay is enjoyable. This is ultimately a top-notch place to stay; convenient, stylish, and comfortable - I couldn’t recommend it more!
