'We have been thrilled with ALTIDO! Ben and I often chat about our ALTIDO experiences, and we are always full of praise. Your team are brilliant and they’ve done a fantastic job getting the flat as full as possible, particularly given the constraints we have put on the diary for balancing bookings with estate agent viewings'

D.M

'Since starting our engagement with ALTIDO the team has been clear, concise, diligent with timings, diligent with recommendations and someone is always available to discuss any concerns or questions I have. I value communication so highly especially as we are unable to physically be in Edinburgh so your excellent service has been of real value to us.'

The team are literally on hand 24/7, 365 days a year to deal with all our guest enquiries, bookings and issues. Our apartment is cleaned to a fantastically high standard, guests are dealt with promptly and courteously and on the rare occasion there is a problem, is is sorted our quickly and effectively.

With a lot of competition out there ALTIDO are definitely the top competitor. Highly reccomend for anyone wanting to have their property properly looked after.'

S.J

'I have been really pleased with the ALTIDO team since day one, they have helped to advise me on what makes a good short term rental and provided great support for my guests, ensuring I get good bookings and the place is always presented beautifully whenever I return.
