If you want to be in a great location in Edinburgh, this is it. We had four families. Including 7 children. They loved the pool and being right in the Grassmarket under the Castle, near Victoria Street, the fabulous Museum of Scotland and Greyfriars Kirk. Staff were so professional and kind. We were there during a heat wave, and missed air conditioning, but got by with the fans. Definitely recommend!

Good breakfast, helpful staff, excellent amenities

The staff were truly wonderful and made our stay very welcoming; they are definitely the highlight of this hotel. Our room was clean and well-maintained, though it is worth noting that there is no air conditioning. While I understand this is customary for the area, it was unusually hot during our visit, which made sleeping a bit difficult. A few areas could use some improvement: the carpets on the second floor are in need of a deep cleaning. Also, our room faced the courtyard, so we could smell cigarette smoke when the window was open, and the noise from the courtyard could be heard clearly until people went inside for the night. If you stay here, you may want to keep this in mind if you prefer to sleep with the window open. The breakfast buffet was decent overall. Despite these minor issues, the exceptional service from the staff makes this place a great choice.

Great location and friendly statt

Great location - close to castle. Helpful and friendly staff. Comfortable bed. Clean room. Would get a room with castle view the next time.

We stayed at Apex Grassmarket Hotel for one night, and it was a good base for exploring Edinburgh. The location is excellent, with beautiful views overlooking Grassmarket and Edinburgh Castle. It’s within easy walking distance of cafés, restaurants, shops, and many of the city’s main attractions, making it very convenient for sightseeing. The room itself was very basic with two beds—comfortable enough for a short stay but nothing particularly memorable or luxurious. One challenge during our visit was that there was no air conditioning or fans. We happened to be there during an unusually warm spell, and the room became extremely hot, which made it difficult to get comfortable. The hotel has a bar on site, but there wasn’t breakfast or dinner available during our stay. There are plenty of nearby restaurants, though, so this wasn’t a major issue. Drinking water is available from a refill station in the hallway, which was convenient. Overall, if you’re looking for a hotel with a fantastic location and great views, Apex Grassmarket is a solid choice. Just be aware that the rooms are fairly basic, and if you’re visiting during warmer weather, the lack of air conditioning may affect your comfort.

Prime location, comfortable beds and ample room size. Breakfast options plentiful!

All great, the lifts are a tad slow but not too bad!

Overall the property is good. Very convenient area for touring the city. Good restaurant in hotel for eating. Our only complaint is that a room facing the front of the hotel is really loud till like 3am. This wouldn’t be a huge problem if the rooms had AC and you could close the windows to dilute the noise but our stay was a bit warmer and needed windows open and therefore for a family with telephone kids it was too loud. Hotel was very accommodating and moved us to rear facing room and didn’t hear a peep for last part or stay. Very much appreciated

Great location
