Stayed here in November 2011. On initial impressions I was a bit disappointed as the exterior looks a little sad. Nevertheless staff were really helpful and the room itself, although small, had really nice modern decor. Attention to detail, such as complimentary Elmis products in the bathroom and flat screen tv with dvd player, made the trip even more enjoyable.... More

We stayed at the Apex European at the same time last year and chose it based on its convenient location for Edinburgh Squash Club. The staff have been pleasant on both occassions and although more traffic is being diverted past the hotel due to the never ending tram works, we did not find the noise level too bad. The room...

I've stayed at the Apex European three times over the last two years and I keep coming back. The staff is friendly, helpful and the look and feel of the hotel is good. I've been put in rooms on the 3rd, 2nd, and 1st floors and haven't noticed a difference in noise between the floors. The noise level in itself... More

I enjoyed my stay very much. It is very well located, even more if you happen to rent a car on the Thrifty car rental of Haymarket rail station. The staff is very friendly. Just watch out for the parking, it is paid!! I parked the car just near the hotel entrance at night, and when I woke up at... More

Perhaps a year ago, i would have thought this hotel was fine, however, i think after staying in some fantastic hotels all over europe for this price my standards have changed. The Apex is very average, the outside of the hotel and the lobby are very unappealing, the staff member who greeted us was quite rude, the room service was... More

Found the hotel staff to be very helpful from the moment I checked in until I departed. The room was certainly very clean and comfortable. I had an accessible room and pulled the emergency cord while searching for the light and the staff reacted immediately. Breakfast was good but did not try any other food. Decent walk into town but...

We had plans on staying just one night and meeting up with a friend, so we called at the hotel early and staff seemed very helpful, I informed them we would be back quite late and they took our names but we were not able to check in yet as it was too early. Upon our return at 8 30pm... More

My husband stayed at this hotel for two nights earlier this month, and it far exceeded our expectations. The staff was very attentive, friendly, and welcoming while our room was clean and large enough to comfortably accommodate us and all of our luggage. Having breakfast included is a great value, and the breakfast was wonderful. It was a nice change... More
