Apex Waterloo Place Hotel
"Hotel is in the heart of the city. Every where is walkable and safe. But rooms are old and was the only concern."

Hilton Edinburgh Carlton
"Pros: The hotel screams out location, it can’t be a better location for stay to absorb Edinburgh. Staff is very helpful too. Cons: Breakfast variety is not great. Path to room, lifts are really confusing ( but I can’t fully blame them as they are trying to modernise a castle which might be tough) ..."
