An exceptionally wonderful hotel. Great location with walking distance to Waverly Railway Station (i.e. the main/central railway station), Highland and Loch Ness tour buses, city sightseeing buses, the majority of the sightseeings in Edinburgh, St James Quarter (i.e. a nice shopping center), many stores, shops, restaurants, cafes etc. Nice, clean and quiet room with comfortable beds, with iron and ironing board. Nice gym, swimming pool and sauna on the third floor. Nice (breakfast) restaurant and a bar, nice breakfast, great staff everywhere, fast and nice check-in and check-out. We highly recommend this hotel. We will definitely come back to this hotel.

Nice heritage hotel. Nicely located closely every attractions and train station. Didn't try the food but close to st james quarter with lots of good eating options. Enjoyed the stay here and was easy to walk to the train station and drop the car rental. Thanks

Really pleased with our stay at Apex Waterloo Place Hotel. My additional upgrades to my stay were really easy to book and the receipt staff were really helpful and friendly. Free access to the swimming pool was the icing on the cake! Thank you
