"Loved our stay in a 2 bed apartment in Braid apartments. Beds so comfortable that I didn’t want to leave ! Great welcome basket with some breakfast items were waiting for us on arrival. 2 bathrooms with showers in each and great heat throughout the apartment. Super place to be based as so close to princes street and main sites. Staff very helpful before arrival and provided information when it was needed. We arrived around 8pm and it was easy to access with the provided code which was emailed...

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The property was spotless, quiet, and located at a walking distance from many tourist attractions and restaurants. Staff was friendly and helpful, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay."

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great hotel in all aspects. It's a cost effective hotel, with an awesome location as well. The rooms were clean and very spacious (us Americans love our big spaces! LOL) We had some issues with parking after we had already returned home, and the hotel costumer service, specifically the manager, was fantastic. We would absolutely stay here again. "

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely outstanding stay! Had a beautiful room with a balcony overlooking the Christmas market and Edinburgh Castle. It was perfectly situated. 3 min walk from the train station and 4 mins from shops. Everything was a stones throw away! Beautiful bathroom and room in general on the top floor. Breakfast was excellent and worth the money. As we were on the sleeper train, we arrived incredibly early and the hotel took and kept hold of the bags either side of our journeys! Highly recommend staying here. Could not fault the hotel, staff and service! "
