On my visit in May 2024, by car, traffic congestion seemed to have increased since my previous visits. Extra journey time may need to factored in for reaching your destination in or around the city. Once there, walking instead of driving made things easier in some respects, and it remains a beautiful place to be.

Have been before several times so didn't need to see the main tourist sites. Very busy. Weather shocking. A months rain fell in 36 hours. Just when we were there. Can't be helped. Very crowded atm. Tram excellent. Easy to get around city. Couldn't do as much as we liked due to weather

Bad place to eat healthily.
Bad place to eat healthily. Visibly obese teenagers show that food in education has yet to be introduced. There is no serious bread to be had, only sponge bread that I thought had disappeared in the last century. What is boasted as sour dough bread is a travesty, with sugar added. Sugar is for cakes. Organic vegetarian restaurants are absent. There are only two small organic food stores in this metropole.
Public transport gets you almost everywhere, for a modest cap sum. Air quality is poor on account that all buses stil run on diesel. Electric buses for this small city should be mandatory.

Great places to eat, lots of walking and places of historical significance, lovely architecture, the Castle is amazing, the Chocolatarium is amazing, the Lind and Lime gin distillery is amazing. We had a lovely time exploring and getting to know the city and its lovely people.
We are definitely going to go back there to do the activities and tours we missed out on the first time!
We stayed here for one night before an early flight from Edinburgh airport. The hotel was clean and comfortable. We ate in the hotel restaurant. The food was good, if slightly expensive, and the waiter who served us was very friendly and helpful. The hotel was only a few minutes drive from the airport so handy for us. It was also close to the tram line so would be easy to get to the airport or city centre from here. We didn’t have time to use the pool due to arriving late and leaving early but the leisure facilities looked good.
Pretty much perfect location as it’s in the middle of new town and old town , and right infront of the rail station. It also has a shortcut path to take you directly from the hotel to the Royal mile in about 20 seconds lol. It was perfect, you really can’t get a better location. Also they had so many amenities like an espresso machine and the fluffiest sheets ever. I was extremely happy and comfortable here. If I return to Edinburgh I will only stay here.
it was a wonderful a stay at the Apex, one of the best Hotels I stayed with in the UK. Lovely and friendly staff, clean Rooms and spacious. Clean and modern bathroom. lovely shower gels. The location is close to everything, Shopping mall, Train station and Cafes. if you are visiting Edinburgh don’t hesitate to book at it. Also it is close to the Old town and a nice walk into the New town of Edinburgh.
we didnt try the breakfast so no comment on that.
This is a lovely quaint hotel. We received a warm welcome on arrival, and recommendations on places to see, and where to eat and drink. The room was clean and cosy, had a nice view of the street, and included all of the expected amenities (tea/coffee, TV, hair dryer, toiletries). The location was a short walk from the city centre and close to a tram stop. I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Edinburgh.
The staff is just the best. So friendly and helpful!
Loved the location (walkable distance to the city centre, tram and bus stop conveniently nearby). It is very quiet both in the area and in the hotel.
The place is very cozy and clean. The have all the necessary amenities in the room - hairdryer, soaps etc. And even little sweets and tea-coffee making facilities.
We also ordered breakfast and it was delicious.
The location in New Town by St. Andrews Square was amazing!!! We were right by a bunch of great restaurants and a Sainaburys Local. All the hop -on -hop off buses start there so that was very convenient. It was also a fairly quick walk to old town / Edinburgh Castle. The vibe of the room and the windows were great! We pretty much had everything we needed.
The Scholar is a well managed hotel, great room and a very comfortable bed. In fact the bathroom was spacious and modern. The whole facility is both modern and homely - excellent facilities all round. Great location and handy bus options for accessing Edinburgh city centre. The best part of the location is that it is a quiet neighbourhood.
The location is perfect, in city centre, in walking distance to both the Old Town and the New Town, and this hotel is great value for money. I was worried that the room might be noisy because of the location, but we were in the new part of the hotel and it was very quiet. It was also very clean and comfortable.
Excellent location noy to far from city centre very clean hotel staff were really helpful and friendly and couldn't do enough for you room was fantastic would definitely book this hotel again if I was doing another overnight stay in Edinburgh been in a few hotels in Edinburgh and this was one of the best
Beautiful little hotel in great location of old town Edinburgh . The location was the best, just steps from the St. Giles Cathedral , in a small quiet street. The facilities are quite good. The fact that the room had a little kitchennette with tea and coffee available made it more comfortable.
Very nice breakfast and lovely, attentive staff . The room was quiet and warm with a spacious bathroom. The hotel is quite a way out of the city centre, but the local transport links are excellent and very straightforward. It is also within walking distance from Edinburgh Zoo.
It’s the best location in Edinburgh for easy access to the train station (just across the street), Old Town and New Town. It’s about as central as you can get. The room was clean, modern and had everything we needed. The Passcode made it easy so we didn’t forget a key ever.
The hotel is located at walking distance from Edinburgh Waverley station and close to the city centre and the Royal Mile. The room was clean and various amenities (coffee, biscuits, bottled water, as well as socket adapters) were provided by the hotel.
Hotel was very clean and comfortable with great facilities, especially the pool, steam room and sauna. Staff were helpful and pleasant. Restaurant offered nice food at reasonable prices. In a quiet location only a bus ride to Edinburgh city centre.
The location of the hotel was perfect, a 10min walk from the city centre.
The room was so spacious and spotless.
The staff were also exceptional Robert the night manager was great to deal with. If returning to Edinburgh we’ll stay here again.
I was very happy with the location of the hotel in respect to the main sights in the old town of Edinburgh. As well, the bed was very comfortable. And the breakfast was fantastic. The staff were informative and helpful every step of the way.
Very friendly and helpful staff, location is great for old town/Royal Mile area/city centre. Numerous restaurants of various cuisines in immediate area. Will definitely be staying at this hotel next time we visit Edinburgh
