This is an excellent hotel in an amazing location. Staff were great, hotel was really nice. There are about 8 parking spots in back and we were lucky to get one. Only issue it was so hot in the room which made it a little uncomfortable. A fan was provided and it helped a little but it was still hot.
Oue midweek stay at Apex City of Edinburgh was delightful, Mercy the Duty Manager and June the receptionist were a wealth of information and advice regarding places to go and the most economical ways to get there. I would recommend anyone staying at this hotel to ask these 2 for sightseeing advice. My only gripe was the hotel had no leisure facilities on site and the sister hotel a few doors down had the smallest pool and changing rooms I had ever seen in a hotel of that size.
Great location with a great view of the Edinburgh Castle from outside the hotel or from a communal area on each floor by the windows during the day (reflection of inside lighting makes it hard to get a picture at night). But our whole stay was overshadowed by the fact that our room (room 3135) smelt like a public bathroom/drain/waste. It was obvious staff knew about the issue but did nothing to help or move us. On one occasion the person who refreshed the room used bleach in an attempt to get rid of the smell. Unfortunately that did nothing to solve the problem and the smell returned quickly. The smell was obvious as soon as you opened the room door and stayed in the room for our entire stay. Not sure why the room was even being used as the hotel was not apparently busy/full.
