Actually, the main asset of this hotel is its location. Public transport is nearby and easy: tram stop Ocean Terminal is just nextdoor. We came directly from the airport by tram, no changes at all. Several bus lines serving Edinburgh city center have a stop on the other side of the hotel. Right nextdoor as well. We came late home from the Tattoo and could easily get back to the hotel by tram, even very late. Otherwise there's another bus stop served by night bus a stroll away. The parking lot looks nice. 10 Pounds a day. The room was large enough and clean. Excellent bed / sheets. AC worked well. Good TV set / remote / channels. Other advantage: this place is rather easy to reach by car, compared with Edinburgh center which can get very busy and congested. Holiday Inn is located outside of the "chaos" and public transport does the rest!

Location at the tram line to Edinburgh saves a lot of car parking angst. Location near the Royal Yacht Britannia was also an easy walk, and a very enjoyable experience. This is a busy Holiday Inn some days, but the Staff cater well for the guests at Breakfast and otherwise. I booked a king size bed and we had a lovely room looking to the port. Window could be opened too, to air the room. We had to repack after 6 weeks travelling, to return to Australia, and the room gave us ample space for that too. The 24 hour coffee etc machine in the Breakfast Room is very handy for that cuppa! The Hotel also let me use my Disability Pass from Oz (like local Blue Card) to park free in their car park the days and nights we stayed.

The hotel met our expectations for a Holiday Inn Express. Comfy beds and good breakfast options. The personnel was helpful and accommodating, they gave us recommendations for free parking in the area. Although it's rather far from the center of Edinburgh, the hotel is very close to several buses and tramway lines that drive through the city center, so it wasn't an issue at all. It also gave us an opportunity to discover Leith and the Shore area, which we might not have seen if we'd stayed closer to the center. Beautiful area with a relaxed feel, ideal for drinks, dinner and brunches.

We enjoyed our two day stay at this hotel. The room was perfect for our needs and spotless clean with good facilities. The bed was very comfortable and I loved the fact that you could open the windows for fresh air. Parking on site was very easy to organise and we had the option of the tram, local buses or the hop on hop off bus to go into central Edinburgh. A very convenient location , also close to shops and within walking distance of some good restaurants. The staff were always helpful and courteous. The breakfast had a good selection of options and everything was lovely.

This is avery functional hotel and all the better for that-it meets all your needs and has been well planned and is well run. I was a bit unsure about the parking cost but the reception staff were really helpful and made it very clear what I needed to do for reasonable onsite parking. The rooms are very clean and well organised. We were next to a lift but heard no noise at all. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good but avoid the busiest time. It is very well locasted to explore the very lively Leith but easy to get into Edinburgh but also out onot the main roads.
