“most enjoyable weekend”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 February 2012

Our stay at the Hilton, Edinburgh Airport was most enjoyable. It was my friend's birthday so our room was upgraded, we received waffles for breakfast and a card, and champayne at dinner! All most unexpected. The food was beautifully presented and delicious.
The staff were extremely polite and attentive. Reception was most helpful with transport advice.The pool, sauna and steam room were clean. The hotel was most welcoming and we had a lovely visit to Edinburgh.Many thanks

Dear Angela R

Thank you for your fantastic review of Hilton Edinburgh Airport, I especially liked the part where you said "All most unexpected" - our team love to hear when we break down the mis-conceptions of what airport hotels can represent, but it's certainly not the case at Hilton Edinburgh Airport.

In your review you have also been very complimentary about the food presentation and quality, our chefs will be delighted their talents have been acknowledged on TripAdvisor too!

Finally you mention our great team, and so they are, they are a real pleasure to work with and it's only right that when a guest such as yourself mentions how good they are, that in turn I give them some public praise too.

Thank you again for your kind comments and I hope that you will stay with us again in the future.

Yours sincerely

Liam

“Great Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Clean, efficient and great staff. Well equipped rooms and close to the airport (5 min walk). But:

- £15 to use the hotel wifi!
- £10 for a beer and gin&tonic.
- Terrible problems booking through the BAA website. Better price (£50 double room no breakfast), but terrible customer service and no interest/response/ease of access from BAA even though we'd paid thm in full in advance.

Dear ShonaReed

Thank you for your review of Hilton Edinburgh Airport, I appreciate the time that you've taken to give me your honest feedback on your stay.

I was however sorry to read that your booking process was not as good as you had hoped for - have you let them know? I will also forward your comments as well as I know that they will be interested in your feedback.

In relation to the charges you have highlighted, as I've referred to in previous replies on TripAdvisor, we honestly monitor pricing in all areas of our business on a very regular basis including beverage and internet pricing. Specifically in relation to the internet pricing I would like to let all guests know that we do have complimentary internet available in all of our public areas within the lounge.

Even in light of the sensitivities of what I have mentioned above, it was still great to read that overall you felt the hotel and all of the team were to a very high standard - our team are great people who want to provide great service.

Thank you again for your comments. If you have reason to use the hotel again in the future, please do not hesitate to contact us where we will be pleased to provide the best rates and best service available.

Yours sincerely

Liam

“Best hotel at Edinburgh Airport”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012

We have stayed twice now at the Hilton, Edinburgh Airport before early morning flights. We live in Edinburgh so could easily take a taxi to the Airport but we still think that an overnight stay at the hotel is worth it making for a relaxed start to a trip.

From check-in to check-out the staff are all extremely attentive and friendly. We ate this time in the restaurant and the food was really tasty and well presented.

There are other hotels close by but none at the same standard or with the same facilities as the Hilton. They do offer a shuttle service to the Airport but as we were about to be stuck on planes or in airports for almost a day, we decided that we would walk and it is only 5 minutes or so.

We would definitely stay again and would recommend the hotel without hesitation.

Room Tip: Third floor (top floor).

Dear Shona-Charlie

Let me start by thanking you for such a positive review of Hilton Edinburgh Airport.

You managed to highlight a wide range of attractive reasons for other guests to stay with us. From convenience to the airport to our tasty food to our exceptionally friendly staff - we have it all but we work hard to keep it this high standard.

The walk to the terminal in the morning can be very refreshing, having done it lots of times before myself!

Thank you once again for your review and for your recommendation, your feedback will certainly help those considering staying with us.

Yours sincerely

Liam

“Much better than expected!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012 via mobile

Really impressed with this hotel.
Staff are very good, polite, great with children & just generally on the ball.

Food is too a good standard, draught beers are fresh and served at the correct temp.

Nice and close to the airport. Unsure about my thoughts on having to pay to park but so be it.

Wifi is apparently free but I can't seem to get it to work.

Recommended.

Dear Glen_10

Thank you for your super review of Hilton Edinburgh Airport. Along with your catchy headline and details of how your stay was, your review was a glowing report!

All of the team here at the hotel are continually encouraged to deliver great service with a warm and friendly manner as well. It was as important to me to see that you were happy, as it was to read your comments about my team being good with making sure children are treated with respect and with lots of fun I hope too.

The car parking charges are something that will always be a sensitive issue which I acknowledge your feedback on. However in comparison, I do carry out regular reviews of other Scottish airport hotels and our charges are below many of these hotels.

Once again, thank you for your time and effort in informing all of the TripAdvisor community know about your stay with us. Please do let us know when you may have a chance to come back to stay with us where you will be very warmly welcomed back.

Yours sincerely

Liam

“Great Hotel for stop-over before a morning flight”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

Booked the Hilton Edinburgh Airport direct on-line and got a good rate (£71 for each of two rooms) on the outward part of our journey, but unfortunately the best rate they could offer on the return was £135 per room so we opted for the Premier Inn at Haymarket instead (£60 per room).

We had dinner in the restuarant, which was ok, and got complimentary breakfast in the morning, and upgraded rooms, thanks to my gold loyalty card. The rooms were very comfortable, the breakfast was good, and we also had a look at the health club/swimming pool, which looked excellent, although we did not have time to use this facility.

All in all, a great place for a stop-over if you can get a reasonable rate.

Dear Highland2

Thank you for your very insightful review of Hilton Edinburgh Airport. I'm certain that all future guests that stay with us on the back of your review will agree that you gave a very informative review of the hotel.

It was a pity that the rate on the return stay wasn't suitable for you, but in the future do try us again as far out as you can from your stay to get the best rates.

The food and beverage experience you had between dinner and breakfast all sounds great and I'm delighted you enjoyed these parts of our hotel. Maybe next time you'll have time to use our fantastic LivingWell Health Club, it gets a great reaction from guests as it surprises most people with how extensive the facilities are.

Once again thanks so much for your review, I appreciate the fact that you've made the effort to give such positive feedback.

Yours sincerely

Liam
