I just have to say how much I love living at Gateway Apartment. The location is perfect—just a quick walk to campus makes it super easy to get to class or grab a coffee with friends. Plus, there are plenty of grocery stores and parks nearby, which is a big plus for daily life. The apartment itself is really nice. I’ve got a spacious room with lots of natural light and a kitchen that’s great for cooking. The common areas, like the lounge and study rooms, are perfect for hanging out or getting some work done with roommates. What really sets Gateway apart is the community vibe. The management team is friendly and always ready to help out if you need anything. They also organize events that bring everyone together, which has helped me make a lot of great friends. I also feel safe here, thanks to the secure access and good security measures. Overall, living at Gateway has been a fantastic experience, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a place to stay while studying.

All the Answers You Need About Student Accommodation
What tenancy length do I need?
Some students choose to stay during the academic year, whilst others – particularly international students – require a tenancy that covers the entire year. You can also find student accommodation that is available for one or two terms, classified as a “short stay” on our search filters.
Should I stay in catered student accommodation?
This is totally up to you! Catered accommodation means you will be served meals at set times in a dining hall, and you’ll likely have access to fewer kitchen facilities than if you were to stay in self-catered accommodation.
What is a guarantor and do I need one?
A guarantor is a person who signs a contract to agree to pay your rent if you are unable to. Most university accommodation requires a guarantor, and this applies to both domestic and international students.
Will I need to pay a deposit on student accommodation?
Most likely, yes, you’ll need to pay a deposit. This will be refunded at the end of your stay as long as there is no damage to the room or property.
What bills will my rent include?
If you are staying in university-run accommodation or private halls, your rent should include any utilities such as electricity, gas, water, and internet. Students are not required to pay council tax, however you may need to fill in an exemption form so make sure you check with your local council.
What is purpose-built student accommodation?
Purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) are residential buildings designed for students. They are often located close to campus, boast modern facilities, include all bills, and often have staff on site to assist residents.
Will my student accommodation be furnished?
Student accommodation is typically fully furnished. Your room should include at least a bed, clothes storage, desk and chair. You’ll likely need to bring things such as bedding and kitchen utensils, but we have a full list here of everything you’ll need.

The apartment is very nice and quiet. The neighborhood is convenient for transportation and shopping. It's a ten-minute walk to Princes Street. The front desk of the apartment is very friendly and often organizes events and parties with free breakfast, pizza and more. It is also very convenient to sign for express delivery, and the front desk staff will help to put several express deliveries of the same person into categories and put them away, which is very convenient for me to find.

Overall good, just take too long to fix things that were broken from previous tenants
Thanks for your review. There are many rooms at Gateway Apartments and we try our best to make sure they are all perfect but sometimes there is not enough time. We will try to up this time and speak to our maintenance to ensure that this is not the case for any point further.
Very happy with my studio, there is everything I need to enjoy my last year of uni. The staff is great, very nice people. Being in a studio, it’s hard to meet people so i wish we could have more social events.
Hi, thanks for your review. Please make sure you are logged into Kliq and RSVP as we have been throwing social events like our Pizza evening, Cinema nights, Pumpkin carving and the party last week friday as well.

Nice, clean studio. Good amenities and location with St James Quarter within walking distance.
Hi, thanks for you amazing review. We love the location of Gateway Apartments and are so glad to hear that you like our amenities.
The receptionist is really kind. Every time when I send email to the Apartment, I will receive the response quickly👍🏻
Thanks for your kind review :) We try to respond to all queries as fast as possible as we know it makes life a whole lot easier for our residents which is exactly what we want.
Currently in a studio which is very spacious and has a good amount of storage space. I generally keep to myself so can’t comment on social events. The laundry facility is functional and straightforward to use and the gym, cinema room and study rooms seem nice. Overall, I’m quite happy with the flat as it has all the essentials and is in a nice location.
Hi, Thanks so much for your kind words and lovely review. these are amazing aspects of the life here at Gateway Apartments but please let us know what we would need to do or change to make this review a 5 star review!
Love this place, near school and mall! Love the environment and little cat.
That is super! thanks so much for your kind review. We also love how close Gateway Apartments is to everything :)
alright. a bit on the pricy side but expected for the facilities.
Please speak to the reception to see what else you would like to see changed so we can change this to a 5 star! We want everyone in our apartments to feel at home and at ease so please let us know how we can help.
Gateway apartments, so far, has been great. The team is friendly and easy to interact with. I stay in a studio and there is ample space in the studio to have different sections for your tasks during the day (studying, food, entertainment, and sleep). It is really great to have on-site study rooms and gym which can be accessed 24*7. A great budget saver if you were planning on getting external gym membership. Lastly, the cute cats on the property are always nice to watch when sitting out in the open area.
Thank you so much for your amazing review! We will continue to work as hard as possible to maintain this standard for all our students. We are so glad to hear that you are enjoying all of our common spaces as well as your studio apartment.
Very friendly reception!! The location is the best because we have a lot of transport near by !!
Hi, thanks for your amazing review! Please let us know why it might not be a 5 star experience and if there isn't a reason then would you consider changing this to a 5 star review please :)
This property have excellent building, common space and environment, people in there are friendly and kindfully. However, there are some traces of use left by the previous tenants in the room. But overall, it's a great apartment
Hi, Thanks for your review. We are glad to hear that there is a friendly atmosphere as well as excellent building conditions. Please let reception or maintenance know about these traces so we can fix them asap.
Such a great place. The accommodation price is very cost-effective, the surrounding supermarket shopping is very convenient, and the bus to school is also very convenient, the garden environment is very good.
Hi! Thanks so much for your amazing review. Its reviews like these that make us love what we do, we promise to keep trying our best to make it an enjoyable environment filled with fun, practicality and convienence.
This is the second year in the dormitory! The overall is very good, the price is much cheaper than other studios, but the service and location are very good, Li Wang Zijie is very close, and there are many buses to go to school! Overall very good!
You can tell attention has been paid while designing the room, which allows you to use the small space wisely! The quality of the ventilation system is excellent. I like that the room has a window wall, wood flooring, and white, not yellow lighting - it would be great if the sofa and wall paint were regularly updated. More than five stars would be given to the staff! The staff is incredible, always ready to listen, help, and take action, making your living experience more convenient and giving you a sense of home!
This is one of the best written reviews we have ever recieved! Thank you so much for your kind words, we try our best to make the accoomodation feel like home for our students and we are so glad to hear that you are enjoying your experience. We will be working hard to make this a 5 star review :)
Great accomodation with great management, however, it is a bit of a distance from central campus in Edinburgh
Hi, thanks for your review. We are glad to hear that you are happy with the accomodation and members of staff. Unfortunatly we can't change the distance but we do offer great transport facilities which are very close by! :)
Nice staff and quite huge space in the studio room.

This is a really nice apartment with a great community and nice environment. The front reception staff is super friendly 🥰🫶
Hi there, thanks you so very much for this nice review :) Reviews like this one is what gives the staff an massive smile and makes it all well worth it!
Too noisy from both neibourghoods and streets. I heard strange bumping noise throughout my whole stay. I have reported with lots of records of the sound but they said they are not sure about the noises so they cant be fixed. Its way too noisy to rest. Really bad experince which made me feel not worth the amount of the rent. Worse than my last accomodation which was cheaper and much more better. Besides, everytime i use the washing machine, there must be an issue comes out. Eitherthe machine is not enough or it takes in money but not working. And the problems are not sorted by the reception. Dont recommond！
Hi there. We are very saddened to hear that you have not had a great experience as we aim to make everyone feel safe, comfortable and at home here at Gateway Apartments. Once we know what the sound is and where it comes from then we try to make a plan of action to reduce or remove it but if we are unable to hear the sound then we will struggle to locate it and fix the issue. Could you please come see reception about your washing machine issues so that we can speak to the washing machine company and see if they can rectify this. The washing machines are a separate company to us and there is a number to call for issues so please leave that review for their web page as we can not control this. We really want to make all our students feel at home and will do everything in our power to achieve this. We will be working hard to turn this review into a 5 star.
Location is great and safe! The management is amazing - special shout out to Alex he's always been super helpful :)

Hi! Thank you so so much for this amazing review. We are striving to maintain this standard for all of our students and we are so glad to hear that you are enjoying your stay so much.
The location of this flat is great, very easy to get to and close to supermarkets and shopping centres.The inside of the flat was very well equipped and I loved my room!
Hi there, thank you so much for this amazing review. We are so glad to hear that you are enjoying your stay, and we hope that you will continue to enjoy it!
I would recommend Gateway Apartments especially for those who needs relaxing and peaceful place to feel fully rest, since uni accommodation can be overwhelmingly crowded with number of residents. The apartment is located close to center of the city yet in relatively peaceful neighborhood. There are several supermarkets within 3-15 min walk distance including an Asian supermarket. The room is spacious but not too big that it’s easy to keep it tidy. The property has small studying rooms, a gym room and a cinema room. I heard my friends had to pay quite a lot for university gym membership so this is a good place if you use the gym often. Also staffs are always friendly and helpful.
Hi, thanks so much for the amazing and kind words. The staff are committed to giving all of our students an amazing experience and a lovely place to call home.
The facilities are good and I enjoyed living in here, but it would be nice if the broken parts in the room could be fixed.
Thanks for your comment and feedback. We are sorry to hear that the facilities arn't up to standard, please come speak to reception or report on our maintenance app so we can get it fixed ASAP!
Very enjoyable year spent in Gateway Apartments, like the atmosphere here!
Thanks for your amazing comment. We will continue to keep the atmosphere at its best!
It is one of the best apartments I’ve stayed at.
Hi there! We are so glad to hear that you are loving your stay at Gateway Apartments. We hope to keep up this standard and improve our students lives.

Hi, Thank you for such a nice responce! Have you left us a Google review yet? If not then please feel free to do so. We will try to keep up the good work.

I have lived in Gateway Apartments for the whole duration (5years) of my studies. Firstly, the management is so friendly and supportive and care about the students experience and wellbeing. They always try to find ways to make our experience better, whether that is by hosting events, having disney+ subscription in the cinema room for us to use and more! The room itself (studio) is spacious and modern, great for a student. Overall, an amazing experience would recommend!!

The price is a bit expensive. Internet seems not working all the time I'm not sure if it is only my problem. There is no security station at the building after office hour. Considering the amount of money I pay each month I don't think it is worthy.
Hi, Thank your for taking the time to leave a review for Gateway Apartments. Gateway Apartments is very secure as it is a gated developement, we do however have an Out of Hours team who can be contacted all day or night in the event of emergencies. Thank you Steven

The staff here are amazing and great. They are understanding and really kind to everyone. The rooms are fantastic with safety checks. My most thanks to Taylor and Steven, the staff at the reception, especially Taylor, who has done so much for me during my difficult time, and has been just so helpful. I can't imagine how worse my condition could have been without their understanding and so many support. I'll also miss the lovely cat. Thank you so much and good luck!

The Gateway Apartment is suitable for student to live as it is near the city center. I would like to recommend it to my friends as it is really worth the price to live in a studio apartment and also the social experience is great.

I’ve had some problems with management but the team has since switched and seems to be more on top of things. Other than that this place is good although mostly international students and not the most social.

The new team is really amazing, conscientious and very cheerful Responsible . I loved here!
Hi, Thank your for taking the time to leave a review for Gateway Apartments. I am pleased to read that you are enjoyed your time with us. Thank you Steven
Although my stay was mostly lead by the lockdown and the local regulations i still loved my stay. I was extraordinarily welcomed by the staff who helped me throughout my stay. Although at some point my room seemed a bit small, the shared spaces in the flat and the quality of social spaces helped to change my scenery. The only issue is the price of the sets offered to furnish the room or kitchen appliances... Too many towels, a stone bathroom bin, very high quality which is unecessary for a "short" stay... However, if you stay for a while, thats perfect and you won't regret it as it is still very convenient ...! It is perfrectly located with buses 2 minutes away max and it only takes 20 to reach Princes Street by foot. Convenient, warm and new, you'll enjoy your stay !

I have been living here for more than a year now and I would stay for longer. The staff is really amazing, super nice, supportive and always happy to help. The accommodation is located near the city centre (walking distance) with access to the airport by bus and tram. I really like Calton Hill which is 2 minutes walk from the location. The staff also organised (before the pandemic) socials, so that was a good opportunity to meet other students.

Really nice, spacious studios with excellent heating, tap water is sufficiently warm and the water in the shower becomes hot instantly. The place was well cleaned when I first moved in and the hallways and common area are kept clean as well. Lots of storage space with beautiful full-length windows, so the room is always brightly lit. The team tries their best to arrange virtual social activities even in these trying times, and the staff are very friendly and helpful as well. All in all a great experience, would highly recommend renting from them!

The moment I stepped into my room I felt great! Going to study abroad is a big deal and especially during a global pandemic. Having such a nice studio with an amazing view made me feel good and home during the self-isolation. The location is perfect, not near the Uni but a perfect walking distance and beautiful too! David, Lindsay and Brian made me feel welcome and helped me with many queries. They came up with activities during these weird times where you can win some cool stuff! Unfortunately, the gym was not always open due to the restrictions. I think the price quality ratio is okay.

The flats are new and not great value for money. Although, not the closest to the University of Edinburgh, the location was still pretty good with a lot of transport options and many shops in the area. There was little social life with residents and if you wanted friends there, you would have to find them in the city or on campus. The Wi-Fi routinely disconnected and often for a couple of hours, but once a full day. The cell signal is terrible so if there is no wi-fi you are often bored inside or have to go outside to get reception. They did not even offer to refund some of the money if students wanted to leave early because of Covid, although in Scotland, a months notice is all that is required to leave. Furthermore, they reduced their services. Rooms weren't clean on arrival but don't bother cleaning because they will still charge you to do basically nothing. I found food from the last tenant, so they definitely did not clean well. Would not recommend.
