“The Knight Residence presents a compelling blend of independence and service in Edinburgh's Old Town; its apartment-style setup particularly suits families or extended stays, given the fully equipped kitchens and generous space. I especially appreciate the focus on sustainability, including EV charging-a forward-thinking touch. While some past guests have noted minor housekeeping inconsistencies, the consistently helpful and friendly staff seem to me the most reliable asset here.”
