"This was a beautiful apartment to stay in, with the perfect mix of historic charm and fresh, modern finishes. We did have a mix-up with our booking, as the room was reserved for three people but didn’t have a sleeping option for the third guest. However, reception responded quickly and made things right, which we really appreciated. Overall, we had a lovely stay and I would definitely stay here again."

Top Leith Docks Hotel Reviews

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel location was amazing! Hotel was in the Old town and short walk away from the Royal Mile and Edinburgh castle. Our room had a nice view of the Edinburgh castle. Room was very clean and comfortable, slight musty smell. We loved the walk-in shower and bathtub. Breakfast was well done, tasty, plenty of options. Gym was not the best with minimal equipment, however, the pool looked good, but we didn't get a chance to enjoy it. Overall, excellent hotel, recommend a stay when in Edinburgh!"
