Good location and absolutely lovely friendly staff. Nothing was too much trouble. Room was a little cold and toilet cistern noisy but this didn’t detract from our stay

Superb value for money on Sunday night stay
Great value for money when staying Sunday (breakfast included). Brilliant location with tramline stop up the road and everything needed room wise. However asked for a quiet room, but sleeptime was disrupted by what we can only think was a staff locker room above room 125? Don’t think it was a hotel guest as sounded like doors closing every so often (there are no cupboards in hotel room!). This woke us every time it happened throughout the night and after 6am, we never got back to sleep 😩

Maybe skip the breakfast.
Very friendly staff. The bed was comfortable with a choice of firm or soft pillows. I tried the inclusive breakfast on one of the 4 days of my stay. It was ok but low quality sausages and cold, soggy hash browns. I didn’t return for breakfast in other days. Nice location close to The Shore in Leith with plenty of cafes, bars, restaurants and shops, and some stunning views.

Had a few problems getting there as we got of the tram at the wrong Holiday Inn Express so had a two mile walk, gratefully downhill. When we got there realised the real tram stop was only 100m away...very conveniant for the rest of the trip. Nice room, very nice staff, and a good restaurant with an all inclusive breakfast which was very comprehensive to others we have experienced. A nice four day stay.

The only issues we had were: 1} Queueing for breakfast - we were down by 8am but those who were later (after 8.30am) had a 20 mins plus wait to get seated. 2}Paying for Parking - must be done within 20 mins or driving in - need to use the machine in the Foyer as a lot easier than the App which is quite a pain to use Apart from that no issues.
