My 6th time staying at this hotel & standards have been the same throughout. Location is fantastic, directly across the road from some of the best pubs & restaurants in Edinburgh. Staff in the hotel are very friendly & helpful. Also, i love the way the hotel constantly reinvents its decor. Expensive it might be, but well worth the price! More

We stayed here for 4 nights for our 1st wedding anniversary. We paid a reasonable price and I rang the hotel the night before we checked in to ask for a bottle of bubbly in the room.

The staff on arrival were pleasant enough and directed us towards our room. We stayed in the city queen room, which is there standard room and it was clean and fresh. There was... More

We've just arrived home after 4 days in beautiful Edinburgh. The Apex International is in a great location in Grassmarket, just minutes walk from The Royal Mile, has fantastic views of Edinburgh Castle and a great selection of pubs right across the road. We got a fantastic rate by purchasing a winter break special price. We booked a Superior room... More

Firstly I am surprised to find this hotel ranked in the low 40s and below such masters of disaster as the Grosvenor Hilton and ever bland Premier Inns. I have stayed at many and all rank lower than the Apex. I stayed as part of a conference and the welcome was speedy, efficient and well organised. My room was not... More

Went for a girlie weekend and the hotel was perfect and the location we also perfect. More
