An outstanding bijou economy hotel in a great location in the charming Grassmarket' area of Edinburgh, with plentiful specialist shops, cafes & restaurants and close (walking distance) to the major sights and sounds of Edinburgh. Rooms clean, well equipped and larger than standard bed-box. Fine breakfast selection - remember to pre-book and to work your way through the fruit, cereal,... More

The TV and Web Access is great and the bathroom nicely appointented and modern. I eat in the restaurant (it was a few days after New year and Edinburgh was really... More

We thought the hotel was great and the staff were very helpful, it was also good that we could use facilities at Apex International a couple of doors down. We really enjoyed the breakfast... More

I stayed at the Apex City in December 2011 and was very pleased. The vibe is modern and hip, my room was very comfortable, and the service was just right. The location is perfect for exploring Edinburgh, just a short walk from the Castle, the Royal Mile, and over the hill to Prince Street. More

We have stayed in many hotels from Ireland to Austria - but Apex City Hotel was by far the best. It all boils down to staff! They are obviously well motivated and well valued by their superiors and so it transfers down to the customer. We arrived very early on the morning of Tuesday 13th December after a very early...
