"Ideal location - we debated Old Town vs New Town and so glad we chose the Apex. Literally a 5 min walk from the train station and then a 10-15 min walk to everything we wanted to see. Hotel was so nice, the room was very large and we had plenty of room to spread out. Room was quiet, despite being so centrally located. Would def recommend."

"Check-in staff was super helpful when I requested a change of room as the first room had a window directly into the patio."

"We had a good experience here. The room was actually very spacious for being a smaller square footage room. It was perfect for 2 people. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. Great location to everything. Only downside was… you can hear the other nearby hotel room doors closing at night time when it’s time for sleep, but this is common in most hotels. There was no coffee or complimentary water in the room, but they do offer it in the lobby. I would recommend you stay here while visiting Edinburgh."

"Beautiful hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. Great food on premises and very nice lobby area to hang out and grab a drink."

"A very nice hotel, conveniently located to the High Street in Edinburgh. Has a very nice bar/restaurant (you kinda have to like bars, and I don't ... but the drinks were good and they did have some very nice dishes on the menu) and excellent breakfast (even includes custom-made omelets). Room was comfy and quiet. I thought it was bit tight. But, worked quite well after being out and about all day. I wish I'd known there was hotels from this chain in London (near St. Paul's) and in Dublin (near Dublin Castle). I'd have probably stayed at those as well."

"Best and prettiest hotel EVER!! Highly recommended. A bit far from downtown but woth the ride/drive."

"We enjoyed our stay at The Resident as it was well located to what we had planned and the staff was quite pleasant. However, as far as value - we felt the room to be small for the price paid. We also felt the bathroom tub was quite dangerous to get in and out of — as one had to step very far up and INTO it without a bar to hold or a proper door. The door of the shower also leaked a bit and we didn’t care for that as it required us to be rather mindful. If you’re looking for amenities - this hotel doesn’t seem to have many. No parking. No bar. However, it does have a great happy hour where they serve free drinks? So that was fun. Housekeeping was also pretty solid as they came every day for turn down, even on the days we woke up late. For a short stay, The Resident could be ideal."

"Very close to public transit. Very clean and comfortable."

"Breakfast and dinner was nice and staff gave a good service"
