Very nice stay
The Apex Waterloo Place was an excellent find. They graciously allowed us to check in early (our flight arrived 6:35 am), and upgraded us to a 2-bedded room, at no extra cost -- very nice indeed! We were able to walk to all the major sights, and the staff were very helpful with directions and good suggestions about where to dine. The room was a bit chilly, despite our attempts to raise the temperature on the thermostat, but then that is what I have come to expect from UK hotels in cold weather, so we came prepared. All in all a very nice stay, I would certainly return to this hotel.

Dining tip:
Short walk from hotel
Cafe Royale (pub & restaurant), Guilford Arms (pub/dining), Hadrian's Brasserie (in the Balmoral Hotel), and restaurant in the National Gallery are all nearby, lovely, and moderately priced, with many Scottish dishes and other options that were very good (even to a teenager!).

Location is Everything
A very good hotel in a great Edinburgh location. Better if you are going there by train. The garaging facitilies are not convenient and are expensive. We were not impressed with the hotel's dining room for dinner. The menu is limited and a bit strange, the portions are small, and prices are very high. There are other nearby restaurants that we liked better.

Hotel has class
The Apex Waterloo has it all. It's a great location, it's very clean, has great amenities like the restaurant, pool and saunas and found it to be a class act. We liked the classiness but without pretentiousness and were very comfortable.

Great location!
Hotel is in perfect location for shopping and exploring the city. Friendly staff, clean comfortable rooms with nice little extras like good quality toiletries, bath robes & free wi-fi. Would stay there again but make sure breakfast is included in the price!

Wonderful honeymoon
Lovely hotel and not too pricey. Right in the city centre, not far from main train station and bus stop to go to airport. Walking distance to Edinburgh castle, royal mile, arthur's seat etc. Staff really friendly. Hotel has swimming pool, steam room and sauna. Would be better if it had a jacuzzi, but minor factor. Really enjoyed our stay.

Close to everything
This hotel is close to everything and is easy walking distance to the Royal Mile. Room was nice, but not outstanding. Food at the in house restaurant was not good and definitely overpriced.
