"The hotel itself is charming and well done and clean. The breakfast available is great. Our only complaint is there is no refrigerator or microwave in any rooms. It’s a good walk to the Royal Mile (a mile maybe) but it is not a difficult walk and we did it many times in the course of our 12 day trip. "

"it was good, close to all the amenities and transportation"

A verified traveler stayed at Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

5/5 Excellent

"This was the perfect location if you want to be in the center of it all! it was very walkable to dining and shopping and to popular landmarks. The staff was very friendly and changed our room after we realized that their standard king isn’t actually a king by USA standards. So since I went with my sister they moved us to a very large room with two Twin comfortable beds. I also enjoyed the little perks like complementary snacks, beverages (even alcohol) and coffee and tea. Overall I would recommend 10/10 if you’re staying in Edinburgh! "

"We were able to walk to all the main attractions; so convenient. The hotel is very new so everything was in perfect condition. The towels are extra thick, the beds extra comfortable and the care to make sure everything is clean and well stocked was obvious. Plus we have to shout out the staff. The went above and beyond to make sure we were always professionally taken care of. 10/10"
