Top Melville Monument Hotel Reviews

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing location. All of the staff we encountered were wonderful. Restaurant on sight was great. Overall 10 out of 10."

Market Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The location was perfect. Right next to the Royal Mile, but still in Newtown so you had modern conveniences and were close to great restaurants. It’s right next to the train station and the bus station so easy to move around the country and get to the airport. The rooftop bar was beautiful and a great place to have breakfast or room. The hotel was modern, clean, comfortable. And the staff was."

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

8/10 Good

"Huge plus is the location in between Holyrood and Princes St / Royal Mile. And easy access to buses to get around. Staff helpful. Didn’t use the hotel bar or restaurant but they looked good. Only real negative was we got unlucky and one of the two lifts was being repaired and out of service. Pool was good by hotel standards. Has a gym but did not use it. Did not have breakfast included in my rate so simply found something nearby. Seemed expensive overall but then everything in the city centre is. No bargains to be had (in June)."
