The hotel was further away from the city centre than we had anticipated, but the bus stop was right outside. This hotel seems to be a good value, and Edinburgh ended up being our favorite leg of the trip! Some downsides to keep in mind: despite being a rather large hotel there is no room service, and when we requested... more

By UK standards, a HUGE room with "American amenities" we often take for granted. A bit off the beaten path, but there is a bus stop RIGHT in front and two main lines that come by often. Free breakfast is okay - only protein is cheese but VERY nice and large eating area. Internet access on site for 1 pound... more

The only problem with this hotel is the rooms are the size of a rabit hutch! But that said, clean, efficient & comfortable is a plus. Nice feature of this hotel is a full service, pub style bar. Located just off the river, 1/2 blk from the Ocean Terminal shopping center where the Britania is located. Many fine restaurants are... more

Over the last few years I have stayed in some really nice hotels ranging in cost and star ratings. So as long as this Hotel gave me the basics of what I required then I would be happy.

My sister and I stayed here as were visiting a friend in Leith. We paid €80 for the room for a night including breakfast. Breakfast is only a cold buffet, not too exciting, but it's enough to start the day. The rooms were modern and clean, not very big, but it was OK. There was no noise in the hotel... more

My husband, son & 15 year old son stayed here for three nights and found it a great base to explore both Leith & Edinburgh. We travelled by rail from Yorkshire to Edinburgh Waverley Station and then just caught the bus (I think nos. 22 or 36) from Princess Street straight to Leith (about 10-15 mins) & the bus stop... more

This is just like any other Holiday Inn Express, little tired and only the basics. Breakfast is ordinary but it is only express so can't complain for that reason. Room we had - triple with our adult daughter was very ordinary. Desk staff were very helpful and efficient. Bit far away from most things but we walked everywhere anyway. more

Good clean hotel. Located across the road from Ocean Terminal shopping complex. You may think that it is not central, however, there is a fabulous bus service and a day ticket only costs £3. Rooms are clean and comfortable beds. Continental breakfast plentiful. All in all a good deal. more
