"This ex-university building turned 175-bed business-oriented hotel has comfortable rooms, some with views to the Castle. Faces the happening Grassmarket."
Time Out Time Out
"This 1996 debut venture from Apex was refurbished and extended just a couple of years later; more than a decade on, it remains a slick, contemporary venue in a brilliant location." Full review

"A big (620 beds), bright, modern hostel that feels more like a hotel... A huge bar and a central location just off the Royal Mile make this a favourite place to stay for the young, party-mad crowd." Full review
