The staff were really attentive and efficient. The location was near several restaurants, pubs, and shopping. The walls and the doors are extremely well insulated so you can’t hear anything from the neighbors. A fan was also provided. Overall a great location.

Staff were very friendly and apartment was so clean. The bathroom was a lot smaller than expected and can be a struggle showering and moving around in the space. It is very well presented but little things are a let down, poor TV signal (understand unable to help this) smart TV option could work better. The heating you press a button then the radiator will work, radiator would turn off but then unable to press the wall button again.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at KM Apartments! From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, welcoming, and went out of their way to make us feel at home. The apartment was spotless, modern, and exceptionally comfortable — everything was thoughtfully provided, from kitchen essentials to fluffy towels and great Wi-Fi. The location couldn’t be better — right in the heart of Edinburgh, just a short walk to the Royal Mile, Holyrood Park, and great cafes and restaurants. It was the perfect base for exploring the city. We especially loved how quiet and peaceful it was at night, despite being so central. The bed was super comfortable, and we slept wonderfully every night. Overall, KM Apartments exceeded our expectations in every way. We’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Edinburgh, whether for a weekend getaway or a longer stay. We’ll definitely be back!

Reception staff were very helpful on arrival with suggestions on sites. The room was very clean and modern. The bed is extremely comfortable but the mind your head sign could be helped with a bumper on the corner. The sign doesn't mean I'll remember when I wake up. Bathroom is a bit on the small side but very happy with how clean it was. This room was relatively quiet compared to other reviews. 2 fire alarms the first 2 days. Luckily, that was it. Occasional door slam. But otherwise, not bad. Complaints about it being a student housing building but it's a different floor so other than the elevator, there's no student noises. All in all, a good place to stay.

We had a beautiful and efficient room for two. The bed was over the kitchen and the suite was south facing over South Bridge street. Excellent location only minutes from the Royal Mile and great restos and pubs. The only down side is its not cheap!

Convenient place to stay

KM apartments are on a floor of a block of accommodation that otherwise house University of Edinburgh students. We found the location convenient for us, the apartment to be quiet (though we understand not all of them are quiet), well furnished, clean and suitable for us. The breakfast was good, though simple.

Great place for a stay

The apartments/hotel is in a great location. View of Arthur’s Seat right outside. Not a far walk to the Royal Mile or other museums. Great amount of space. Kitchenette was nice to have especially for a week. The refrigerator is bigger than a mini fridge. A bit of a maze to get to your room and the lift was out part of the stay. Will definitely stay again!
