This was the first time we'd stayed in a serviced apartment, and boy was it impressive! We stayed in a one-bedroom apartment for two nights in May 2013. We arrived at Edinburgh Waverly railway station. It's best to take a taxi from the station, because Edinburgh is really hilly! It's only about £5. When we arrived, Chris the duty manager... More

My family & I stayed at these apartments in December for a little break to Edinburgh to do some Christmas shopping & catch up with friends!! We booked a two bedroom apartment & were delighted with the space. We have two young children so we were able to let them run about a bit & having the separate bedroom was... More

Knight Residence exceeded my family's expectations in every way. The staff were so welcoming and helpful, with special mention of Christopher who gave us directions and a walk through the apartment facilities. The apartment was a comfortable two-bedroom with a great layout, nice kitchen (very clean with a full service of dishes and flatware plus a washer dryer), and a... More

Great place to stay right in the heart of the city. We are a family of 5, (3 adults and 2 children 7/2), so standard hotel rooms are simply too small for us. We absolutely loved The Knight Residence. We arrived earlier than standard check-in time, but they had no problem allowing us to check right in to our 2... More

Would recommend to friends, better then staying in a hotel. Well equipped apartment, close to the center & good local facilities. Staff very helpful and friendly. Would stay again, they even provided food on arrival free of charge, enough to last the weekend. Good stuff.

We stayed in the penthouse apartment 19 this weekend. We were greeted by friendly helpful staff. The apartment was spotless and had everything we needed and more. There were bread, tea coffee milk and breakfast items in the apartment and staff were helpful when we had an online order from tesco delivered. It was a short walk from all the... More

A wonderful spacious three bedroom apartment with excellent kitchen, good bathrooms and very comfortable beds. The welcome pack was extensive with tea, coffee, milk, butter in the fridge, bread, cereals and nibbles. Yes the floors squeaked a bit and the occasional reveller could be heard late at night but you are in the centre of a major city surrounded by... More

Ideally located just up from the Grassmarket. All the main city attractions are accessible on foot or by using public transport. The knights residence is an excellent alternative to a hotel especially if you need more than one room. The apartments are very well equipped with everything you need for a short/long stay. The secure parking is an added bonus.... More

My friend and I stayed in Building 7 apartment 8. The welcome kit lasted us about 3 days. The location is close to Grassmarket and Old Town. The floors in the apartment did squeak quite a bit, but we were told that they were in the process of re-doing the floors. The bathrooms had recently been renovated. The apartment was... More

Someone said that this place was a home away from home in a previous review and I have to agree with them. This is like an apartment with a nice service and security. The apartment is around 5/10 minutes from the castle and 15/20 from Princess Road where all the shops, restaurants and many monuments etc... are. It's in a... More
