Modern hotel, part of a group with progressive environmental policies
DESCRIPTION
The Apex City Hotel offers modern accommodation in the heart of Edinburgh's Old Town. Shopping, the Royal Mile, Holyrood House, Dynamic Earth, Princes Street and Edinburgh Castle are all within easy reach. Part of a small independent hotel group it has 119 contemporary Standard, Executive and Superior rooms and suites, all with widescreen TVs, DVD players and en suite bathrooms with walk-in power showers. The Agua Restaurant has one AA Rosette and offers à la carte, fixed price and kids’ menus. Guests are invited to use the “Yu Time” leisure and fitness facilities at the sister Apex International Hotel just yards away. There is a Tropicarium with sauna and steam, and a stainless steel indoor swimming pool which is ozone purified and as a consequence no “bleachy whiffs”. There is also a well equipped gymnasium.
GREEN FEATURES
The Apex group of hotels has rapidly become admired in the trade for its company-wide environmental policy. It has a green team headed by an Environmental Director based in Edinburgh and a Green Champion in each hotel. All staff members are briefed on these measures and environmental audits and spot checks are conducted with the scores going towards their bonus scheme. Like its sister hotels the Apex City Hotel was designed to incorporate energy efficient features. The hotel aims to use eco-friendly chemicals, to purchase recycled goods wherever appropriate, recycle a range of materials, and monitor and reduce energy consumption. Customers are offered the chance to carbon offset weddings, conferences and other events with Climate Care. In 2006 the hotel received two environmental accolades: winner of the VIBES Regional Award for East Large and Gold in the Keep Edinburgh Clean Awards. Notably, along with many other accolades it has been awarded Gold in the Green Tourism Business Scheme.
