10/10 Excellent

"Market hotel provided us we all we needed for a great stay in Edinburgh. Close proximity to all the sites of interest. The hotel is beautifully finished, with everything you need. Hairdryer, iron, coffee making facilities, fridge with fresh milk!! Free mini bar! Such a rarity, but so welcomed! Aircon was silent, bed so comfortable! Shower powerful and the soap, shampoo, conditioner and body cream wonderfully smelling! Food and drinks were amazing! Complimentary champagne at breakfast! That added a show of luxury to make our stay that little bit more special. Staff were so friendly! Professional and knowledgeable, they made our stay so special. Thank you in particular to Edward, David and Sneal in the Nor Loft, for making our stay so enjoyable. "

"Great hotel and very convenient. The reception staff are excellent. They all without exception are helpful, generous and kind. The room was lovely but we missed not having a kettle from which to fill our hot water bottles!!!!! There is still only one lift working and other maintenance issues. Breakfast is in a bar with tvs everywhere and was ok but no really healthy options eg unsweetened yogurt, porridge, seeds, etc which I’d expect for the price we paid. But very central and warm.

10/10 Excellent

"The Apex proved to be a great hotel choice while in Edinburgh. A close walk to the Royal Mile and literally above the train station made it very convenient to site see and then catch the train to London. The hotel felt very safe and comfortable. The breakfast buffet was excellent. All of the staff extremely friendly. Our room was a triple and was very large by European standards. A large bed, a pull out bed (comfortable) and a sofa too. The bathroom actually had a US style shower so that was nice. Overall we would return to this hotel if we were to return to Edinburgh."

8/10 Good

"The location of the hotel is ideal for sights and day trips from Edinburgh. Near lots of food, shops, attractions and transport. 30 mins from airport. Airlink near by. Breakfast isn’t included, at a fee but plenty of amazing food places to eat near by. I left a travel adapter in my room and when I realized right after check out, I called with no answer. When I returned to the hotel 4 days later the staff was unhelpful and rude, claimed they did not have the adapter before I described or showed them a picture. Only went to “check” the back room after my urging. Super unhelpful at check in as well. When I couldn’t do self check in because I have an international post code, the staff was annoyed at my asking for help with the process. Didn’t feel welcome. "
