Apex International Hotel

We Say

stay

Incredible views of the great drum tower of Edinburgh Castle. A dramatic rooftop restaurant with two AA Rosettes. Style that's always there - and backed up with the substance of discrete, personal service. In other words, a luxury hotel in Edinburgh, Scotland where you can feel entirely at home - yet escape totally into the experience.

sleep

Stepping into your room at Apex International Hotel should feel like coming home. (Admittedly, to a home where everything is fabulously stylish - and where you don't need to do the vacuuming.) It's a very different take on the traditional Edinburgh hotel. And it's an approach which keeps many guests returning again and again. What makes your room so special? It's a combination of the tiny details (like art on the walls and powerful showers) to the large (in other words, the space on offer). Or, indeed, the location in Edinburgh's historic Grassmarket.

City Rooms

At Apex International Hotel in Edinburgh, even the little extras are included. Think complimentary newspaper, tea and coffee and 42" widescreen LCD TV.

Superior Rooms

Think luxury and more. All the features of the standard rooms plus cosy bathrobes, a fridge and a safe.

Deluxe Rooms

Step out onto your balcony - with stunning views of Edinburgh Castle. Plus cosy bathrobes, a fridge and a safe. Oh, and a king-size bed.

For the Family

There is a number of family rooms, which - surprise, surprise - are specially designed for families. These include two queen size double beds and a spacious feel that makes family living easier. If your children are under 12, they can stay and eat free, as long as there are two adults sharing a room with them.

eat/drink

There are two restaurants at the Apex International Hotel, both offering exceptionally high standards of cooking and atmosphere. Simply pick the right ambiance to suit your mood. Or, for that special event, choose one of the private dining rooms.

Metro Bar & Brasserie

Choose Metro Brasserie and Bar for informal dining or a relaxed drink overlooking Edinburgh's famous Grassmarket. Perfect for a quick business lunch, a lingering coffee with friends, or a gloriously long evening of cocktails after work.

Heights Restaurant

Heights Restaurant, with two AA Rosettes and spectacular views of Edinburgh Castle, proves that beautiful surroundings can go hand-in-hand with equally sensational Scottish cuisine.

Private Dining

Choose from Metro or Heights, or one of the fabulous event rooms, with dining capacities from 10 to 180! Whatever you decide, they'll create exactly the atmosphere you're looking for.
