With a mix of conferencing facilities as well as a gym and pool, the Apex International is an ideal place to stay on either business or leisure.

This stylish and contemporary 4-star hotel has 174 en suite rooms, each one fulfilling the 4 essential requirements of any traveller: space to sleep, relax, bathe or work.

The hotel also provides a choice of dining experiences, from the relaxed Metro Bar and Brasserie to the award-winning Heights rooftop restaurant, which has received 2 AA rosettes in recognition of the high standards of the cuisine it offers and the quality of the ingredients it uses.

Directions

Hotel Map

From the Airport:
There are a number of options to arrive in Edinburgh from the Airport either by taxi, by Airport Link double decked bus to the city center or by Airport Shuttle bus which will stop at the hotel.

From Waverley Station:
Waverley station sits below Princes Street on the opposite side of the castle from the Grassmarket. It is a 10 minute walk to the hotel, however with the climb over a hill we would suggest catching a taxi from any of the taxi ranks within or around the station.

By Car:
- The simplest way to find the hotel is to head towards Princes Street, Edinburgh’s main shopping street. Once at the west end of Princes Street near House of Frasers Department store turn south into Lothian Road.
- Once on Lothian Road take the 1st left turn onto King Stable Road.
- Follow this road straight along and you will arrive in the Grassmarket, where the Apex International will be on the right hand side of the road.
