Apex Grassmarket Hotel
The location was excellent, staff was friendly, and room was clean. The toilet papery dispenser fell off and was impossible to fix. Also the biggest drawback that wasn’t mentioned prior to booking was the construction. Very noisy and it obstructed the best part, the view…

Britannia Hotel Edinburgh
We booked this hotel as it was close to the city centre and provided (paid) parking. Our room was very clean but the decor within as well as throughout the hotel is very dated and could do with a freshen up. Breakfast can be added on for £12 per person. It was ok.
