Learning to Hit Snooze at Waterloo Place, Edinburgh + Giveaway

27/10/17 ᛫ 352 Comments

What is it that really helps you to get a good night’s sleep? There are so many studies on this subject, but the studies all seem to say something different. What works for one person may not work for another, but the guys at Apex Hotels are pretty confident that they’ve found a winning formula. This October I travelled to Edinburgh with my boyfriend Scott to take part in Apex Hotel’s #HitSnooze campaign. It was my job to test out their formula for a great nights’ sleep, so we checked in to the stylish Apex Waterloo Place for a hotel lock-in of epic proportions. This post is also a giveaway, so be sure to leave a comment on this post to WIN a 1-night stay for 2 including breakfast at the Apex Hotel of your choice.

Our #HitSnooze HQ

After a full day of exploring Edinburgh, it was time to spend our first night in the city at Apex Waterloo Place. Earlier that day we checked into the hotel and got a first glimpse of our beautiful Duplex Suite. With a dining area, study, lounge area and top floor bedroom, it felt so much more homely than your average hotel room. The king size bed was luxurious, plush and dressed in the softest linen. I am so picky when it comes to hotel beds but this one ticked all my boxes. If I was going to get a good night’s sleep anywhere, it had to be here.

The Sleep Kit

Waiting for us in the room was a beautiful sleep kit with little extras to help get a good night’s sleep. This was a one-off kit they had put together just for me, which made me realise the level of attention that goes on at Apex Waterloo Place. The kit included some luxurious miniature toiletries an adjustable eye mask and some soothing chamomile tea (caffeine free and perfect to sip before bedtime). The kit also came with a list of top tips to a great night’s sleep by Lisa Artis at The Sleep Council. The surprise sleep kit was so thoughtful and it really added to the sleep-focused experience.

 

An Evening Spa Session 

On my first night in a new city I usually can’t wait to get out and hit a local restaurant and some bars. It felt strange to be staying in the hotel all night, but not having to get ready and decide where to go definitely helped me to relax. My evening began with a swim in the hotel pool, followed by a back, neck and shoulder hot stone massage at PURE Spa & Beauty.

Usually after a massage you need to pick yourself up and continue with your day, but having this treatment in the evening allowed me to stay in my hazy state of relaxation. Apex Waterloo Place is one of the few luxury hotels in Edinburgh that is home to a spa, complete with indoor pool, steam room, sauna and treatment rooms.

A Light Supper at Elliot’s

As it was a ‘lock-in’, we ordered from the fixed-price menu at Elliot’s (Apex Waterloo Place’s signature restaurant). I opted for Serrano wrapped Hake, which was light but incredibly tasty. The waiters were both friendly and professional and really set the bar in terms of service at Apex Waterloo Place.

Switching off Technology

I wanted to share my experience on social media, so I had been taking photos, tweeting and posting Instagram stories throughout the whole day. It’s part of my job, but I knew that being wired to my technology wouldn’t help when it came to drifting off to sleep. Scott and I followed the tips in my sleep kit and made a conscious decision to ‘switch off all technology 1 hour before bed’. With phones away and the TV off, we shared a bubble bath in the huge freestanding tub. It was bliss!

The Morning After  

I woke up at around 9am, which definitely felt like a bit of a lie-in for me. We snoozed until about 9.30am to make the most of the gorgeous king size bed. It felt lazy but so nice at the same time! We started our second day with a hearty Eggs Benedict breakfast and wonderfully friendly service at Elliot’s.

The Verdict

I slept through the whole night without any disturbance and definitely think the sleep I got was deep, quality sleep. I definitely think that the ‘lock-in’ ritual had contributing factors that helped me to sleep well, including the evening massage, the bubble bath, the technology cut-off and the king size bed. The whole experience at Apex Waterloo Place was an indulgent treat, but still included small changes that I can maintain at home.

The Giveaway

This blog post also marks the opening of my giveaway with Apex Hotels, which is available exclusively to my readers! I’m giving away a 1-night stay for 2 including breakfast at an Apex Hotel of your choice! (there are hotels in London, Bath, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Dundee!).

    I’d love to go to Edinburgh,
    And visit the medieval old,
    It’s my first Christmas without my dad,
    And it’s sure to make me smile not frown,

    I’d love to visit the vintage boutiques and buy a cosy Scottish knit,
    Or take a hike up to a beautiful vantage point, hopefully I’m not too unfit!

    An architecture fan and a gallery lover,
    I’d love to immerse myself in art for the day,
    Pop into cute coffee shops and tuck into a cake,
    Please pick me and my bae! ( cringe I used that word!)

Despite living in Newcastle, and her driving me from Newcastle to Edinburgh Airport multiple times a year (hello cheaper flights), she has never actually visited Edinburgh. She is a star and deserves a little bit of luxury (who’s mum doesn’t).

    I’m doing some research that involves London history and the Law, so Temple Court in London is the one that grabs me. Watching an old Basil Rathbone Sherlock Holmes the other day got me thinking I’d like to see Doctor Johnson’s house too, which is close. I used to cycle round there at weekends, just blundering around, about twenty years back So…one dark and misty night in old London Town it’d be nice to revisit, and do some exploring……!

    They all look so fabulous! But I’d have to pick Bath … It’s been on the hit list for a while, city looks beautiful & the Hotel would be a total treat for my hubby & I . We’re happily enjoying the simple things in life & new experiences … working our way around the UK as saving for a so no big trips abroad for a while! Fingers crossed Xxx

    I think that I would visit the Edingbrugh or London one and id take my gorgeous fiance. We have both been to Edingbrugh and London seperatly and keep saying we will have a trip to these places together, due to us both having busy teacher lifestyles, often with different holidays time away together is rare at the moment. Something with the oppurtunity for lots of relaxation and quality time together would be perfect. I think the key to a good night sleep is to de stress beforehand and nice cup of herbal tea before bed.

    Bath is the nearest to my home town but I can never get enough of it and I’ve only seen a little of it.

    The rich variety of art, architecture, museums, eateries, markets and shopping could keep me occupied for years.

    The history is engrossing and when you have had enough walking, talking and looking there is always the roof top spa to go and enjoy and get an altogether different view of the city.

    A night in a Bath is always a treat for me.

    I would love a stay in the Apex Temple Court London as both my children live and work in London and going up for the day takes too much time and is too stressful. I would love to make a weekend of it so that as well as meeting my children for dinner (in the wonderful hotel restaurant) we could spend some quality time together visiting the Tate Modern, the British Museum, and as my daughter is a member of the Royal Academy we could see an exhibition there too. Obviously with an extra day, we could fit in some girly shopping whilst the lads do the bookshops

    I would choose Apex London Wall, it would be close enough to all the sights but also if it were at the weekend, it would be nice and quiet so I could wander around the financial district when its all ‘shut for business’ and the feel is totally different to a week day.

    Bath is my favourite city in the UK and I haven’t visited in about 10 years. I would absolutely love to win an overnight stay at this hotel. I haven’t been since I had children so a romantic getaway would be a real treat.

    It would be London for me! I used to live in London – moved to Bristol in 2009, but still love going back to the capital to visit! My husband doesn’t know London that well, and I love taking him back there to show him all my old haunts!

    What a fantastic post! It looks like an incredible place to rest. If I were to win, I’d love to stay at the Apex Hotel in Dundee. I’m an outdoorsy soul, so I would plan a few days of hiking and wild camping beforehand, then have a night in the Apex in Dundee as a reward. (Treating myself to a bit of spa time too for those aches muscles!)

    I’d love to stay at the Apex Waterloo Place in Edinburgh. Despite living in Glasgow, I’ve never actually explored Edinburgh (just climbed up Arthur’s Seat). So a stay at the Apex would be a great base (and excuse) for my boyfriend and I to be tourists for a day and fully immerse ourselves in what the city has to offer.

    This hotel sounds amazing and looked amazing in your instastories. My partner & I have been travelling Asia for 9 months in VERY budget places but are returning to England in a couple of weeks. When we’re back we plan on travelling around the UK more so it would be a great start to stay in such a luxury place. London, Bath & Edinburgh are all on the list so it’s hard to choose aha!

    Hi Jess,

    I’d choose BATH! As a keen traveller, explorer and history buff, what’s not to love about stepping back in time and visiting the home of Roman Deity Sulis Minerva, to the legendary thermal baths to keep my winter body nice and warm! Those Romans are pretty impressive so I’m keen to delve into their history at Bath!

    After visiting Florence this summer and walking across Ponte Vecchio with all its dainty shops & history, I’m playing ‘Bridge bingo’ and I have to visit Pulteney Bridge to tick it off my list as another incredibly designed bridge! Not only is it listed as a Grade 1 lists building itself, and has shops along the walkway, it’s survived the onslaught of German bombing in WW2 – no mean feat!

    What’s even more attractive than the rich historical legacy Bath has left on the world is how dazzling its supposed to be at winter! Christmas markets, mulled wine and exploring the city, taking in its architecture and personality! With a lovely trip to Bath and staying at Apex Hotels, who knows, I could folllow in the footsteps of William Herschel and make another astronomical discovery like he did in Bath by gazing up at the winter sky at the Herschel Museum of astronomy!

The story behind the reel: last weekend we visited The story behind the reel: last weekend we visited the little coastal town of Staithes on the North Yorkshire coast. It was cold, windy, raining and then hail stones came down when we reached the harbour. Things weren’t going so well, until we stumbled across @cod_and_lobster_official and spontaneously ran in for shelter. 

We entered a cosy little haven, with a lit fire and hot coffee. We hid from the cold and by the time we left, the skies had changed and sun was breaking through the clouds. Perfect timing to climb up the hill to the iconic Staithes view point. We couldn’t have asked for more. ✨

Be sure to add Staithes to your list if you ever come to North Yorkshire, and check out my previous reel for an ideal base to explore 🌿
