Location was superb. Our room faces the amazing view of Princes street and the castle so we could admire it day and night (which was great considering it rained the whole time we were there). Absolutely central to all in Edinburgh. Few minutes walk to major train stations, restaurants, tourist attractions. Staff was friendly.

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

Edinburgh is a beautiful city and is a must see and do for discerning travellers. So much interesting history, beautiful architecture and very walkable city that makes your visit a delight.
Make sure that you allow at least 5 days here if you love immersive tourism and getting to know your destination by walking around.

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!

Plenty to do.
Plenty to do. Alexander McCall Smith’s Scotland Street book locations were the highlight of our stay. Highly recommended is Valvona and Crolla deli and cafe. National Gallery excellent. Scottish Parliament worth a visit. Cote good for food and the Cumberland Bar good too. Wetherspoons good for budget eating and drinking. Walking ok for fit people. Maybe too hilly for some. Princes Street and the Royal mile extremely busy.
We had a brilliant stay in Edinburgh, the hotel were brilliant. We were surprized by the size of the room, as we expected something smaller. The bathroom was a really good size with all the necessary toiletries.
The staff was brilliant, very helpful, they kept our luggage both on the day or arrival and departure.
The hotel is right in the centre, 1 minute walk to the royal mile. It is a brilliant location if you want to explore Edinburgh city centre.
We really enjoyed our stay and we will be going back again.
The location was amazing! We only had a short time in Edinburgh and this flat was a close walking distance to the bus tour pickups, walking tours and the Royal Mile. We were able to walk to the Castle, Greyfriar’s Kirkyard (and Bobby), our bus pickup for a day trip to Loch Ness, the Edinburgh Dungeon, shopping, Victoria Street, etc.! An amazing spot in Old Town Edinburgh! It was also right next to a bunch of Fringe Festival happenings (though we left the day it started.)
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.
Awesome location right next to historic locations, Victoria St in Old Town Edinburgh, and minutes walk to Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle, etc. great vibe in the hostel itself, clean bathrooms, Rey helpful reception staff (had only one day and wanted to get a good taste of things to do)… we walked the Royal Mile and hiked up Calton Hill for a 360 degree view of Edinburgh on recommendation. Great experience!
The staff was incredible! It's the best part of the Leonardo. They were friendly and helped us in many ways.
It's in a decent location - only about 20 minute walk to the Old Town Edinburgh. There are also bus stops very close.
We also frequented the bar in the evenings. It was great getting to know the people who worked at the hotel.
The breakfasts were also very good. It was a good value,
The hotel is close to the train station and right off the Royal Mile, which is the heart of the Old Town. It is a close walk to many of Edinburgh's attractions. Other advantages: large sunny room with high ceilings; gorgeous view of the Walter Scott Monument; kitchenette with tea kettle, fridge, and sink; nice big bathtub; free self-service laundry in the basement.
Clean hotel, everyone was friendly and welcoming. The bed was big and comfortable and the room was a decent size. A breakfast is available for £13 per person and it is definitely worth it to pay for it. The hotel is located outside of Edinburgh but just a few minutes walk away is a bus stop with buses running every other minute into the city centre.
Lovely clean hotel in a great location. Breakfast was made to order and delicious. Staff are very polite and helpful.
The hotel is surrounded by the best seafood restaurants in Edinburgh. Leith is a great base, lots of lovely restaurants and within easy access to the city centre. Also offers a great bus service.
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.
Having a lift to get up to the 3rd floor. Nice comfortable bed and very quiet! Nice sized room. Nice bathroom but no view. Perfect location on Princes Street and opposite Waverley Station. The absolute best Scottish breakfast in a dining room with stunning views of Edinburgh castle and the old town.
Edinburgh is very expensive so finding a good place to stay in transit is a challenge. This hotel is on the main airport bus route into the city centre but only 15 minutes from the airport with excellent bus links. There is a busy bar restaurant in the hotel and other restaurants and shops nearby.
I'm a germ freak and I was very comfortable with how clean the room was. The bed was absolutely spotless, no weird stains anywhere which is very difficult to find in a city centre hotel. Great location, close to all of Edinburgh's attractions but still in a quiet area.
The location was OK, nice bars, cafes and restaurants a short walk away and nicely away from the worst city centre hassle. People behind the desk were friendly. This was the cheapest option in Edinburgh for our dates and the next best thing to a hostel.
Amazingly convenient location: steps away from Edinburgh Castle, with the Royal Mile just outside the front door and Victoria street right behind the unit. The perfect home base for the Old Town area. Unit was spacious, comfortable and beautiful.
Ideally located out of Edinburgh city centre for those wanting to avoid traffic jams.
Warm welcome on arrival and really friendly staff.
Modern hotel with good facilities.
Breakfast was the best of our trip.
The Yotel Edinburgh is perfectly located near Princes Street in the City Centre. It‘s very clean and modern, it has a hotel bar and nice personell. Everythings fine - i‘m definitely coming back!
Location to airport and tram stop into Edinburgh city centre and attractions. Compared to other hotel's you get what you pay for. All in all, it was value for money.
Room was a good size.Staff were very helpful and friendly.Bed was very comfortable.The hotel was in a great central location for Edinburgh city centre.
