Apex Waterloo Place Hotel
"Last minute stay and had a wonderful nights sleep after enjoying the spa and dining in their restaurant. Great location near Calton Hill, Howies, The Balmoral etc. And don’t forget to have a drink in the rooftop of The W hotel if it’s a pleasant day/evening, great views"

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile
"Very comfortable one bedroom apartment suite on the Royal Mile but far enough down the hill as to render it quiet. Great breakfast. Near everything. Not luxurious but sufficient to our needs."
