The Apex city hotel is in a perfect location for Edinburgh, it is within walking distance of the main train station or a short cab ride away which cost 3 pounds. The location is perfect for the castle with great views and all the other attractions are within walking distance, nearby are numerous bars and places to eat. The hotel... more

I arrived Edinburgh Waverly Station recently early one afternoon with my internet generated map showing the location of the Apex City Hotel. I had been to Edinburgh many years ago and figured I would have no problem navigating this route on foot with my light luggage. The previous time here I stayed north of the station where the city is... more

I stayed at the Apex City when i went to Edinburgh to visit a friend. The location was fantastic and there's always a great atmosphere in the Grassmarket area. The actual hotel itself, however, was a bit of a let down. The service was professional and friendly but i felt that my room was more 3 star than 4 star... more

We stayed two nights at the Apex City, we had an enormous comfortable well appointed room with a view up to the Castle. I do not understand why the other reviewers complained about the size of the rooms, the bathroom was large too. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, we were given a quiet room on top floor (4th)... more

Booked the Apex city via "laterooms" We stayed 2 nights and got a good rate. The room was large and very comfortable, bathroom and shower also v good. The staff were very friendly and I could not really pick any issues with the hotel. I would definately recommend this Hotel for trips to the Capital city, and will certainly return. more

We checked into the Apex, based partly on reviews here, and found it to be a friendly, nicely appointed small hotel. The Grassmarket location is perfect for walking Edinburgh. We had good choices of pub food and drink across the street, and were a reasonable taxi ride from Waverly for the next leg of our trip. Even during Festival, our... more

This hotel has a fantastic location in the middle of Old Town Edinburgh. It's within walking distance of everywhere in city centre. The quality of the room wasn't as good as I expected, more like a 3 star hotel in America, but if you don't intend on spending a whole lot of time in your room then there shouldn't be... more

My husband and I stayed here for one night of our belated honeymoon trip to Scotland. We arrived quite early to check in (around 11 a.m.) but the very accomodating staff had no problem checking us in. Our room was very clean and comfortable with a nice bed, a shower with excellent water pressure and a stunning view of Edinburgh... more

This is a great location - a few minutes from the castle and Princes St etc within easy walking distance. We expected some noise as Grassmarket is full of bars and restaurants, but the drunken binge crowd were in full swing on both Friday and Saturday night and it got incredibly noisy. Edinburgh is generally expensive, so £140 was about... more
