Apex Grassmarket Hotel
Charming boutique hotel. The room was spacious with two beds larger than we expected, more full size versus single which was a very good thing. The bathroom was functional. The breakfast included in the package was high quality and a great way to begin the day.

Holiday Inn Edinburgh by IHG
We arrived to a friendly front desk - the nice wee (kids corner) was mentioned and we found it a smooth check in/out. Rooms and bathroom products at a pleasant standard. Swimming pool area basic/nice for kids for a quick swim. Tip: do ask for a quieter area if tour groups are in as their early morning ...
