We had a pleasant stay at the Apex International. The hotel is a bit run down. The carpets are very old for example. We got the impression that they were neglecting capital improvements. Aside from a 15 minute wait to get a room the staff was helpful and professional. The room was ok. Be sure to get in the back... more

Had a good stay here at this hotel. Apart from our room had one window that looked over to a reception area and had no ventilation. Upon arriving we thought the room was warm - after sweating thorugh our first night we had a fan on throughout the rest of the stay. I did have to ask for light bulbs... more

Location on cozy Grassmarket in the heart of Old Town is the strength of this hotel. After paying this (rather expensive) room a long time in advance (strict hotel booking policy) we were very dissappointed to find out that service and hotel standard definitely was not up to par. The reception acted as if they couldn't care less if we... more

If your'e staying here, upgrade to the Castle view. You will have an unimpeded, gorgeous view and a balcony with which you can sit on it and sip your whiskey. Perfect location to all attractions. But--if travelling with heavy baggage, the 10 pound taxi ride from Waverly will be worth every cent. more

We visited the Apex International in Edinburgh with our children and friends of ours.We opted for superior rooms and paid a fair bit extra for the extra luxury. Why did we bother? The rooms were filthy, the window frames, units in the rooms and wardrobes were filthy. My daughter had to clean the thick layer of dust off the wardrobe... more

There are some very good reasons to stay at The Apex International. The location of the hotel is excellent with fabulous views of the castle. Breakfast at Heights restaurant offers the same superb views while enjoying the excellent breakfast selection. The room was comfortable, but a little small considering we had paid extra to upgrade. The other aspect that was... more

I stayed here last weekend with girlfriends for a weekend in Edinburgh. The location is perfect- minutes from the Castle and the Royal Market. However, it could be difficult in summer - the rooms are not air conditioned and the hotel opens on to a street with lots of pubs - I would propbably ask for a room in the... more

My friend and I stayed here for one night to see Duran Duran in concert. The location is excellent! We booked a room with 2 double beds and had a view up to the back of the Castle. The room was spacious, comfortable and clean. We ate outside of the hotel but the room service breakfast the following morning was... more

I stayed at this hotel for 4 nights in september with 8 friends. The location is the best thing with this hotel. Great value for money! Everything is in walking distance. The city tourist bus does even stop right in front of the hotel. Friendly staff. We did not eat any meals at the hotel. It is easy to just... more
