Frommer's "The Club Floor is geared toward luxury-minded guests: It has a dedicated elevator, butler service, lounge, and library, along with a champagne and canapé reception every night." Full review
Star Service "This modern, yet unpretentious hotel is similar in quality to the Carlton and bears an equally precious downtown locale although without the views of the castle-facing rooms in the Apex International." Full review

The Telegraph7.0
"There is nothing subtle about this recently-refurbished hotel, which has cleverly reinvented itself as fun-central — shrinking violets need not apply." Full review
Independent "The ideal choice for party animals. It’s fun and funky, albeit compact and snug, and right in the midst of the raucous stag and hen do-packed pubs of the Grassmarket. "
