Apex Grassmarket Hotel
This place was wonderful and the castle. Jew room spectacular. Close to everything. Be aware the Royal Mile is uphill from this location. We also found the tub hard to get out of as the floor was significantly lower than the tub bottom, meaning a bit of a wet climb out. Otherwise, a wonderful place ...

This is my first time at a hostel and I must say, I wouldn't have had a better experience. This place is right in the heart of everything just steps of the Royal Mile. Rhe staff was super helpful, the vibe was perfect. I will absolutely come back!
