Rooms are a wee bit small, but the bed is always comfy. Bathroom is nicer than the average. Dinner was tasty and staff are very helpful. Good location was business or pleasure. 10 minute walk to Princes Street. Collecting rubber ducks from the room - got quite a few now! Careful that you don;t get a room facing on to... More

Stayed for three nights for business and was impressed with the service and pleasantness of all of the staff. The rooms are small but have everything you would need - clean, modern bathroom, armchair, desk and chair and large flat screen TV, Most importantly a really comfortable bed with a real duvet and soft fluffy pillows - I can't count...

There was a mix up due to our travel agent; she booked the Apex European instead of one of the other Apex Hotels in Edinburgh. The reservation could not be changed without a cancellation fee, but it turned out to be a nice surprise. The Apex European is an older hotel only a half block from Haymarket Train Station which...

A nice hotel with nice rooms and helpful staff. decent breakfast. My only complaint is the distance to the city centre. It is at least a 30 min walk to the Castle and almost 1 hr to Holyrood palace. but because of that the price is very reasonable. Cabs ride to the castle was 9.30GBP. I would stay here again.... More

We stayed two nights here. The staff were polite and helpful, the room modern and clean and the facilities (wifi, parking etc) all absolutely fine. There are some good eateries nearby and we walked to the castle in fifteen minutes. It's great value and hard to fault.
