Good location but noisy on street side and no aircon in the room, so stuffy with window closed We had various minor service and facility issues, which we have communicated to the hotel itself. The hotel is in need of refurbishment and a service upgrade

One night midweek stay. Room was spacious with a castle view. Great location. Facilities in the room were clean. Comfortable bed. The temperature of the room could be controlled. Receptionists were very helpful both at check in and check out. Printed a document I needed for flying. Sorry I did not get the names of the 2 receptionists who helped me. Friendly and chatty, very kind. Thank you. I didn’t read the blurb about the hotel but don’t struggle up the stairs, there is a ramp at the side of the hotel by the car park giving easy access into the hotel.
Response from Property: Dear guest,We are delighted to read you enjoyed your stay with us and we are glad to hear about the helpful receptionists. Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback, we hope to welcome you back soon.Kind regards,Sara | Front Desk ReceptionApex Grassmarket Hotels.

A really bad experience- I was unable to stay in the room and checked out within 10 minutes. The room was extremely hot with no ventilation (beware this hotel has no air con). The French window opened only an inch and banged loudly against the sill repeatedly when open. The room was very small and dated. The customer service was poor - no one seemed to care that the room was unbearably hot/ offer an apology or an alternative solution.
Response from Property: We apologize that your stay with us did not meet your expectations. We understand that the room was hot and the ventilation was not sufficient for your comfort. We regret that the window was not able to open but it is unfortunately part of our safety regulations. We also understand that the room was small and dated. We apologize for the poor customer service you received however we would like to assure our team did all things possible to accommodate your needs. We thank you for your feedback as it is valuable to us. We would appreciate it if you would contact us directly to discuss this matter further and makes some arrangements for you for a possible future stay. Thank you. Kind regards, Duty Manager Georgios Miliaras

Perfect location for a city break in Edinburgh. Helpful staff and clean room with a great view of the castle. Would definitely stay here again. Price for hotel breakfast seemed a bit expensive, but otherwise good value.

The facilities and hygiene are OK. It might be the peak season when we came, there were a lot of people, and it was very noisy outside that night. But it is very convenient to go to Edinburgh Castle, which is at the foot of the mountain.
