"Very clean apartment with great amenities and in the perfect location (walking distance to everything). Loved that there was a fully stocked kitchen, washer/dryer on the second floor, the room was very clean, and the staff answered my call on the first ring when I had trouble with the keypad. The place is a super close walk to the Airlink 100 airport bus stop but is a little difficult to find at first since there are no overhead signs. Great stay overall and highly recommend for a few days in...

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Great restaurant & staff "

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

8/10 Good

"Spacious room and very quiet even though it is right by the bars in Grassmarket. Only problem was that the room was stifling hot and it wasn't until our last day that a staff member clearly communicated how to use the heating system. We had called down to o the front desk twice with concerns about the heat. Some written instructions for guests would be helpful "

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel, well situated. Good breakfast, felt a little rushed when bringing out the hot choice (I’d only just got myself some cereal) We ate at the restaurant in the evening, good food, substantial portions, average price for the area. Nice swimming pool, very quiet first thing in the morning. Helpful, friendly staff, we spoke to the cleaners each day & reception staff, all very cheerful & pleasant. I’ve already recommended the hotel & would return ourselves."
