By Air: There are a number of options to arrive in Edinburgh from the Airport. You can take a taxi, or the Airport Link double-decker bus to the city centre. Alternatively, the Airport Shuttle bus will stop at the hotel. By Rail: 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 Fraser department store, turn south into Lothian Road. - Once on Lothian Road, make the 1st left turn into King Stable Road. - Follow this road straight along and you will arrive in the Grassmarket where the Apex City will be on the right hand side of the road.
