Holiday Inn Express EDINBURGH - LEITH WATERFRONT by IHG

Holiday Inn Express EDINBURGH - LEITH WATERFRONT by IHG

📍 Britannia Way, Ocean Dr, Leith, Edinburgh
★★★ 8.6 (196 reviews)

"Location: Very conveniently located right across a couple of bus stops and also a few steps away from Ocean Terminal tram stop. The Oean Terminal has a few well known brand outlets which we did not visit but if you have nothing else to do, it could be a nice way to spend your time. Also the Royal Britannia Yacht is right there. Cleanliness and facilities: just as expected from IHG, very clean and also the facilities that we wanted: luggage storage, a simple bar/ restaurant and hot breakfast. Nothing extraordinary but absolutely essential. Note: scrambled eggs could be better. Service: OK, as expected. We had already sent a note saying we were going to arrive between 1 AM and 1:30 AM, and when we came to the reception around 1:15 AM, they promptly delivered the keys and on the inside of the card was written "no show". Which means the reception doing the night shift never saw our note and had already marked us as possible "no show". It did not hurt us, but I did not like the fact they never read our note, it shows the impersonal nature of their service. Therefore I deducted one star. Note: The cranberry tea is a nice selection. It helped my headache. Thanks."

📍 Brae House, 31 Abbeyhill, Edinburgh
★★★★ 8.0 (97 reviews)

"Hotel was university dorm rooms. Small but comfortable and had toilet and shower. There is a shared kitchen (shared between ~6 rooms). Walls were thin which is a problem if neighbours are noisy. Location is decent, plenty of restaurants and pubs within walking distance. Overall it's an ok place to stay, not cheap but not bad value compared to other places in the city. Note that hotel charges £5 per bag if you want to leave things behind the counter until check in time."

Holiday Inn EDINBURGH by IHG Hotels in Edinburgh

Holiday Inn EDINBURGH by IHG

"One of the worst experience ever! 09:30am house keeping knock despite the “Do not disturb” sign! Soft Pillows Alert! No support to your neck at all! The room was quite dirty, the toilet weren’t clean. The bed though is firm and good for my back. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone, unless they just want a room next to the zoo. P.S. the chinese translation sign on just only one notice in the bathroom is weird. To look around the room, we could only find one sign with chinese translation, this maybe a potential discrimination case. Just a head up to anyone who may be offended before they book the stay."

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile ★★★★
"We stayed in an apartment, was really happy until we got back to our room at 10.30pm to a freezing cold room. No heating! And it’s was at least -3 outside. Rang down to reception to be told they would reset the heating?! After 30 min I rang again and let them know that hadn’t worked, they sent up some extra blankets at 11.30pm. Not really acceptable, as we were cold all night and morning and It really spoilt the experience and being out in the cold all day to then come back to a cold flat wasn’t very nice. I spoke to the manager in the morning who offered to refunded the cost of our breakfast and apologised and said there was nothing they could do as there is no maintenance on weekends ?! Not good enough really. Wouldn’t recommend."

Holiday Inn Express EDINBURGH - LEITH WATERFRONT by IHG ★★★
"We have stayed here several times before and have always been satisfied with this hotel. We stayed for two nights this time;. Good breakfast, plenty of choice. We had left 2 bath towels to be changed and used cups from our morning tea but when we returned for the second evening we only had one bath towel replaced along with a fresh hand towel and bath mat (not needed). Also the cups had not been changed or replacement tea bags provided. Mentioned it to reception when we checked out and they said we of contacted them but we didn’t get back until late having been to a family funeral and only wanted to sleep. Having said all this we will still use this hotel again."
