During our recent stay at the Apex City Of Edinburgh Hotel, we were thrilled with the spacious and comfortable room. The facilities were great, and we especially enjoyed the great-sized bathroom with both a shower and a bath. The location of the hotel was perfect for exploring the city, as all the sights were within walking distance. We were able to easily visit Edinburgh Castle, just a short 10-minute walk away.

I recently stayed at a 4-star hotel in the heart of the historic Old Town. This place is situated in a prime location in an area called Grassmarket, making it extremely convenient for exploring all the tourist sites in the area. Everything was within walking distance, which made it easy for me to visit all the attractions I wanted to see. Additionally, the hotel itself was directly opposite the lively Grassmarket, allowing for a vibrant and lively atmosphere right on your doorstep.
I would highly recommend this hotel to my family and friends.

I recently stayed at Apex Hotel in a great location. The staff was friendly and helpful, especially Reina who gave a warm welcome each morning. The room had stunning views of a lit red Edinburgh Castle. The shower was great, the bed comfortable, and there was a huge TV with a Nespresso machine. The breakfast was top-notch and we even received complimentary drinks at the bar and chocolates in our room for our anniversary celebration. I will definitely return to this lovely hotel.
I can recommend this hotel.

The hotel is located in the vibrant Grassmarket area, making it convenient for exploring the city center and attractions like the Royal Mile and Edinburgh Castle. Guests appreciated the easy access to restaurants and shops in the surrounding area. The staff were friendly and attentive, providing helpful information and calling taxis upon request.
Some guests mentioned that the TV reception in the rooms was poor, and the temperature control was not comfortable.

I had an amazing stay in this hotel. The location was fantastic with a great view of the castle from my room. It was so close to everything I wanted to see and in a good area. The room was spacious and clean with a huge mirror. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Nothing bad to say.

I had a fantastic stay at this place! Its location is unbeatable - directly opposite the grassmarket, which is a great area to explore all the tourist sites in the Old Town. Despite being behind the castle, it's in a quieter area of the city. The service was excellent, room service, housekeeping, and laundry were all available. The amenities were top-notch, with separate tub and shower, free toiletries, an electric kettle, and a flat-screen tv. The dining and bar areas were also great. And the staff were incredible, with a very sombre receptionist at the reception desk helping us during an incident outside of their control, and assisting us with exploring the city minus our luggage. it's a great place, and I'd recommend it to family and friends.
As for cons, there weren't any negative aspects of this hotel. The service, amenities, and location were all superb.

The Apex hotel in Edinburgh was so great with its well-equipped bedrooms, excellent amenities, and great location near the Christmas markets. Courteous and professional staff made check-in smooth, and the room and bathroom were top-rate. The hotel was clean and had everything needed, with friendly staff to assist.
Couldn't find any faults at all.

Located in the bustling Grassmarket, the hotel has a lively atmosphere and stunning views of a famous landmark. However, the noise from the pubs outside can be bothersome late at night. it's a convenient location for exploring the city and accessing its attractions.
The staff's inconsistency in service and attention to detail can affect guests' satisfaction.

Our room at Apex was clean and comfortable, providing us with everything we needed for our stay. The location of the hotel was perfect, within walking distance of all the attractions and surrounded by great restaurants and cafes. We especially loved the peacefulness and quietness of our top-floor room. I highly recommend Apex for a wonderful stay in the heart of the city.
