Ocean Serviced Apartments

This was a wonderful place for my dear wife Ping and I to stay at during our visit to Edinburgh! The apartment was very spacious, clean, comfortable, and quiet. Our host provided clear instructions making it easy to get in the apartment. We found it a relaxing retreat after touring Edinburgh for the day. There is a bus stop a short walking distance from the apartment providing easy transportation to the city center with its many attractions. There is also a large supermarket about a 15-minute walk where we were able to purchase groceries and other items. I highly recommend staying here and would certainly choose it again if and when we return to Edinburgh.

Nice appartement very functional View on harbor Nice staff A little bit far away from center but bus stop very close to appartement

This place never disappoints! We've returned time and again on our trips to Edinburgh, and it's always a pleasure. We typically stay in their best apartment on the top floor, which is just stunning. Picture massive floor-to-ceiling windows that let in beautiful natural light, a fully equipped kitchen, and two spacious bedrooms and bathrooms—ideal for our family! What really makes it unbeatable is the convenience. Free parking makes coming and going a breeze, and with an Aldi right across the street, grabbing groceries or last-minute essentials couldn’t be easier. It’s perfectly located just outside the bustling heart of Edinburgh, offering a peaceful retreat while keeping us close to everything we want to see and do. Truly the perfect spot for a family getaway!

First time using Ocean Serviced Apartments, and thankfully the lock box for getting keys etc, worked fine. Communication via email was good and any queries prior to visiting were dealt with promptly. Car park underneath was spacious and secure. Four of us were in the penthouse apartment which was huge! Very clean and comfortable, extremely well equipped and had stunning harbour views. It was great to just leave the car and use the bus into Edinburgh, which runs every 12 mins and is just across the road. Only one gripe, and that was the shower in the double bedroom - shower head wasn’t fixed on so we used the one in the other bedroom. Double bed was very comfortable. Welcome goodies were a lovely touch! Would definitely stay again - just a shame check in is late (4pm) and check out is early (10am). I understand why these times are set, but it does make for an expensive stay if it’s just for one night.

Very nice and spacious apartment. Our shower didn't drain properly but that wasn't really a problem. The apartment had plenty of plates and cutlery and we cooked there on both nights. The check out system is a PAIN. Especially when the late fee is £100 per hour. There was a queue of people having trouble working the electronic lock box system. Which is ridiculous as there is an office right next door which could do things much more easily. Talking of hundred quids - it wasn't made apparent before booking that you then had to give a further £100 deposit before they would give you a code to enter the building. Why not just include this in your booking price? Again, you could make things easier for yourselves. The area in Leith is lovely though, obviously "up and coming" as there is a lot of work going on, but I would imagine in 5 years this will be the place to be. Thanks for the hospitality, the apartment was spotless and had plenty of space. Ubers are £10 to the botanical gardens / train station and there are very regular number 11 buses to take you into town.

Having lived in Western Harbour for 5 years, just up the street, I knew it was a fantastic location and staying here while visiting our friends and all our favourite spots meant it felt a bit like being at home again. The price was pretty reasonable as it has 2 bedrooms which was good for our 7 month old. And gave us space to chill out when she went to bed. However the check in / check out is a ball ache. The over complicated lock box system didn’t work for check in or check out and you need to read about 3 emails for check in and another 2 for check out, for it to then not work. The staff always helped, why not just say drop your keys with staff and use the over complicated system for out of hours only. A 4pm check in is late for a n property run like a hotel not an AirBnB. And even worse is a 10am check out. And the emails all say if you’re late checking out you’re getting a £100 fine. For a business that is run like a hotel with a reception etc, you should have more reasonable approach interacting with guests and not making them scared of being even 5 mins late out and when I arrived at 15:55 the machine saying I could not get my key until 16:00. Also left my iPhone charger in my room which they have not contacted me about so at best their customer service is so poor they have not contacted me or at worst the cleaner has stolen it.
