"Stayed for 4 nights with work and enjoyed the new furnishings, the shower was hot and powerful, the bed comfy with plenty of pillows.
Everything you needed for a pleasant stay"
"The hotel is well located for easy access by train or tram to High street and the Royal Mile. The breakfast is
a good option for a quick bite before heading out sightseeing for the day. The staff was kind enough to hold our luggage while we were on a tour as we returned to the hotel after. "
"Loved this place. The location was perfect, out of the city but not far and bus stops right outside. Restaurants very close. The room was a great size."
"Older hotel but had a good atmosphere.. they have a breakfast and dinner buffet that has many items .. Staff were very helpful to make sure our stay was enjoyable."

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was very clean and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful but I felt the AC unit was automatically going higher every time I have to lower it so I can feel cool air .. other than that very much recommend for anyone who want to stay in Scotland... "
"A little confused as the to location of the Hotel, but once established it is Good place to stay, very comfortable, clean and quiet. Definitely would recommend staying there and would stay there again. "
"We had a great stay here! We loved our room and the amenities in it. We also loved how close the hotel was to the city center and we were able to walk everywhere. We look forward to staying again in the future! "
"The hotel is in a great central location for walking. I woman at the front desk was just absolutely amazing. Friendly and helpful and a great sense of humor. Her name was Bee for short. The room was nice. The interesting part was the hotel is older and is not equipped with AC. They put portable AC units in the room and vent them thru the window. They also put an oscillating fan in the room as well. I was curious as to how this was going to play out. It went great. The room stayed cold. I mean cold not cool. We stayed in the summer months. The room was spacious, and bed was comfortable. So even with the window open slightly to allow venting from the AC we didn't get any street sounds up into the room. The area is quiet at night. No issues at all and they had black out curtains as well. "
