Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable overall. The rooms were super clean and fresh, and the bed with super pillows made the stay very comfortable. However, our room was a bit noisy because it faced the entrance road and car park. The staff was lovely and very helpful.
The hotel rooms were comfortable with a huge TV and perfectly located with free transfer to the airport terminal. They were clean and the bed provided a comfortable rest. The rooms were large, well-decorated, and came with more amenities than expected. The bathroom was spacious and featured a great shower.
My stay at the hotel was just what I needed for my recent visit to Comic Con. The room was a bit hot and unable to adjust the heating, plus no window, but it got a little cramped when opening up the sofa bed.
The hotel offers spacious rooms with a great bathroom, though it tends to get hot overnight which might not suit everyone. The comfortable bed and large shower were highlights, and despite being close to the airport, the rooms were overall pretty quiet. The service was lovely and helpful, with some delays in payment processing. The location, while close to the airport and quiet, is in an Industrial estate and not suitable for walks. The dining experience was terrific, especially for early flights. Overall, a good option for those needing proximity to the airport.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room was convenient with easy access to the front, although it was a bit noisy due to the location overlooking the entrance road and car park. Housekeeping missed cleaning the room on the second day, and there were issues with the WiFi and a loose toilet seat. The hotel staff were all very polite, friendly, and exceptionally helpful, especially the night duty team. The location, adjacent to the Edinburgh Airport, was great for early morning flights, with frequent shuttle trips and secure parking available. The dining experience included a prompt breakfast service at 4.30 am, which was much appreciated. The facilities were good overall, although there were a few maintenance issues in the room. A downside was the WiFi not working and additional charges for some services.
My stay at the hotel was a mixture of positives and negatives. The room was a bit too hot, which made it hard to sleep, but overall it was clean, bug-free, and comfortable, especially room 118 with its amazing view of the aircraft flight paths. The service was friendly and helpful, maintaining the Holiday Inn standard. The location was perfect for airport access and plane watching, although a bit far from the city center. The dining experience was superb with a delicious variety, but it could get chaotic at times. The facilities were great overall.
The hotel had friendly staff, smart bathrooms, and spacious rooms, but the constant humming noise was a downside. The location was convenient for the airport, though the need to pay for the shuttle was a drawback. Dining offered a great selection of foods at a reasonable cost, making up for the inability to adjust heating temperatures in the rooms.
The hotel was a mixed bag - while the rooms were uncomfortably noisy and drafty, they provided a cozy and satisfying stay with nice breakfast options and convenient airport shuttle service. The staff went out of their way to be helpful and cheerful, but there were issues left unaddressed. The location was fantastic for airport access, though slightly industrial. Dining had its ups and downs, with limited options and some disappointing items, but also a perfect early start time. Overall, a stay with its ups and downs, offering adequate comfort and convenience.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room allocated to me was dark and dingy as it was situated under a driveway, making noise from the shuttle bus disruptive. However, the staff were very pleasant and helpful, despite the challenges they faced. The location next to the airport was convenient, but the pricing seemed unreasonably high.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were modern and very spacious, which I appreciated. However, being near the front entrance made it noisy due to the shuttle bus. Despite this, it was still a decent value for money considering I was traveling with two children.
The hotel was excellent, with friendly staff, good food, and close proximity to the airport. The rooms were spacious, clean, and equipped with comfortable beds, large showers, making it a quiet stay despite the airport's nearby location. However, due to a high number of guests, there were some shortages in food and drink offerings.
The hotel rooms were cozy and warm, clean, but could use a little updating. The service was delightful, and I would definitely consider staying here again. The location was convenient with an airport shuttle available. The dining had lots to choose from but could do with more hot options. The facilities were good overall.
The hotel offers spacious rooms at a relatively expensive rate but surpasses the luxury of 5-star hotels in the UK. Despite the lack of thermostat control leading to a freezing atmosphere, the service provided is impressive with warm and welcoming staff, though parking arrangements require attention. The location is very convenient for working at the Highland Centre, but it should be clarified that the airport is not across the road. Dining options excel in variety and quality, perfect for early flights, even starting as early as 4 am.
The hotel is conveniently located right next to the airport, making it ideal for travelers with early flights. The rooms, although on the smaller side, were adequate for our one-night stay, and the shower was amazing. The buffet breakfast, available early for those with early flights, was excellent. The staff were very helpful and friendly, but there were some issues with them not addressing certain concerns promptly.
