5/5 Excellent

Fabulous location to the Royal Mile!

"I love staying at the Apex Grassmarket! This trip had a few disappointments. The condition of the room has declined since my last visit a couple of years ago. The hair dryer was not working. I still love the location and staff, but the physical condition of my room is needing some work. "

5/5 Excellent

"The staff and location are the best parts of the property. We stayed for 4 nights and every time we asked for directions or recommendations, each person was very well versed or at least, there was someone there who could help with what to do or where to go. Location wise, it's very central. You are close to a few open-late spots for bar food or neighborhood eats (everything closes fairly early 9 pm / 10 pm). You are a short walk to the Gardens and about 15 to 20 minutes to the Castle and the Hop on Hop off Bus which is great for seeing a little bit of everything. We had to request towels from housekeeping and they don't really clean, more just make your bed. The elevator cuts out sometimes, but the stairs aren't too bad unless you have very heavy luggage. If you're renting a car, parking is about a 10 minute walk down - and costs us about 45 euro for the 4 days. I think anywhere in Europe you have to be mindful of luggage because you'll be lugging your bags. We were right by the elevator with a window next to a casino but in my opinion, we never really heard too much of our neighbors or the outside goings-on. I would stay here again, it was exactly what we needed - safe and clean, beds were very comfortable after long days of sight seeing. Well done to their friendly and amazing staff! "
