Brilliant Stay
We had a great stay here. Booked last minute with our 4 year old and had a great family room with plenty of space for playing and also a bath and a shower. My little boy also got a little activity pack when we checked in which was a lovely touch. Breakfast was really delicious and had such a good selection. Location was also brilliant. We were lucky to have nice weather and were within walking distance to everything we needed

Excellent all round
An excellent hotel, clean, comfortable and brilliantly located just under Edinburgh Castle (with a fabulous view of it too!) in the old town. Staff were friendly, professional and very helpful, especially the wonderful Estel. Also liked they have filtered water fountains on each floor so you can refill your water bottle for free. Can't rcommend this hotel enough, I'll definitely be back.

Thought the hotel room was nice and cozy. Unfortunately they had focused the appeal for the room around a bath which in our room had no running hot water.

Very nice central hotel
Very nice hotel. We had a super clean and spacious room, the beds were very comfortable. We loved the carafe in our room that we could fill up as needed, lovely little Scottish biscuits provided along with the usual tea and coffee. Very centrally located and friendly helpful staff. And a fabulous view of Edinburgh Castle!

Overnight business Edinburgh
Modern hotel, located in a good position for the City, the bar restaurant was closed, so had to walk down to larger Sister hotel situated 5 mins away, the swimming pool is also located at this separate hotel. I was unaware that the hotel offered its own parking, until I arrived, which was too late as I’d parked 10 mins away at an NCP car park, which turned out to be very expensive! This hotel needs to add the car parking facility onto the Hotels.com app, so that customers are aware.

Always a great stay
This is our fourth one-week stay at Apex City of Edinburgh and it won't be our last. The staff were able to quickly and easily handle a minor issue we had and our stay was great, as usual. We'll be back, for sure.
