Apex Waterloo Place Hotel sits in a Georgian building on the edge of Edinburgh's New Town, with Yu Spa's pool, sauna, and steam room just downstairs. The hotel is a 5 minute walk from Edinburgh Waverley train station, and Princes Street and Calton Hill are both close by, with the Royal Mile and the Castle a short walk further. Liberté Brasserie offers a relaxed take on refined dining, bringing together Scottish ingredients with European influence, while Bar 1819 suits a lighter bite and a cocktail. Meetings and events take on real character in Georgian surroundings. Nearby you'll also find the Museum of Magic, Fortune-Telling and Witchcraft, Trinity Apse, and The Edinburgh Dungeon, each 0.2 miles away.
