ibis budget Edinburgh Park

8/10 Good

"Did not like that we had to pay for parking."

Delta Hotels by Marriott Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and nice hotel"

Courtyard by Marriott Edinburgh West

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very helpful with information on best ways to get around Edinburgh. Very clean and parking was easy."

DoubleTree by Hilton Edinburgh Airport

8/10 Good

"Perfect location if in or out of airport. Facilities are nice and clean. Seems a little old but nice bar and restaurant. Car rental return was 200 yds away!"

Moxy Edinburgh Airport

8/10 Good

"Located next to the airport, you need to cross the road which is a roundabout that carries a lot of traffic and there is no pedestrian light for crossing - just need to be careful especially when carrying your stuff. Hotel has a young friendly vibe, breakfast starts at 6AM and has good selections, room was nice for the night. Would recommend."

Spylaw Bank House

10/10 Excellent

"David was a wonderful host and made us feel very welcome throughout our stay! The breakfast each morning was delicious, and the house and room were both cosy and spacious. The location was incredibly convenient, with direct bus connections to both the town centre and the airport, making getting around very easy. Considering the price, comfort and convenience, it was excellent value for money. I would highly recommend staying here!"

Holiday Inn Edinburgh Zoo by IHG

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay for the most part, only iffy experience was during breakfast and one lady got a little attitude when I asked to get breakfast for the day and she just kept telling me to go to the reception desk even though I had purchased at the little stand the day before. The food for breakfast was very yummy! The only thing I wish they had was a bigger concession stand with more drink options instead of a vending machine with only about 5 sodas and Gatorade and the water that tastes very minerally."
