"Great location - close to Waverly and a short walk to the main sights while being far enough away to be quiet. Plenty of bars and restaurants in the surrounding blocks as well as a Boots for any quick pick up needs. The hotel was beautiful, well equipped, and the staff were very helpful. We will definitely stay again if we are in Edinburgh."
"Bed was comfortable. Everything very clean. Took a few tries to get into the unit (didn’t know we had to lean extra heavily into door to open). Location was great. Within walking of everything we wanted to see. If we return to Edinburgh in the future we will check here first for our place to stay. "

Apex Grassmarket Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Great location in Grassmarket within easy walking distance of the castle, Royal Mile, National Museum and many pub and restaurant options."
"It was our anniversary and we got an upgraded room chocolates and a card in our room a complimentary cocktail and Prosecco with our meal the staff were absolutely amazing and friendly we will definitely be back"
"The first impression, walking into the rather small, yet bustling lobby can be underwhelming; however the reception staff were extremely courteous, professional and patient, welcoming us with a friendly greeting and a smile, while also patiently responding to any questions the guests might have. Our room, on the sixth floor (which is actually only two floors above the ground level due to the anomalies of having the entrance on a street which is also a bridge) was pleasant, clean and quiet, with huge windows overlooking the street and brightening the room immensely. While there was no safe or refrigerator in the room, the reception staff offered the use of a refrigerator to keep any medications cool. The hotel is in an area filled with cafes, restaurants, shops and tourist attractions, less than a five minute walk to the Royal Mile, and less than a 15 minute walk to the airport busses. We very much enjoyed our stay there."
