Always stay here when the team has a wheelchair basketball match in Edinburgh and usually stay an extra few nights. If you call a head and they have the space, they will reserve a accessible parking spot outside the door. It's all wheelchair friendly and there's a 'squeaky' lift down to the bar/restaurant area. The accessible rooms are a good... More

My husband and I stayed here while I was pregnant as a last trip somewhere before babies arrival. Lovely and clean hotel, in a great location with the bus stop right outside which takes you into town to explore. We ate in the Asian restaurant in the hotel on the first night which was lovely, and the buffet breakfast has... More

This is the most ideal place to stay if you're visiting the zoo, but not really sure what all the expense is for. We went mid-week so didn't have to pay quite as much as the other nights, but I wouldn't have paid anymore than we did for what we got really. Was nice, and a stones throw away from... More

Positive points included a welcoming, energetic front desk staff - most of the time. The breakfast was ample; not a lot of fresh fruit or oatmeal if that's what you're seeking - eggs, sausage and lots of breads on offer, yoghurt and bananas/oranges/preserves. The room was just fine for two people - not fancy but within price range expectations. I... More

Stayed here prior to an early flight. Great value and modern, refurbished hotel. Rooms very good and good selection of outlets. Would go back no problem. When you're not willing to pay a fortune, but don't want to rough it in a budget hotel THIS is the place!

I picked this hotel as it is next to the zoo and it is advertised as having free parking. Great I thought - I can use it as a base for an Edinburgh visit. Unfortunately the car park is small so once parked, you take a risk moving your car as you may not be able to find a parking... More

Located right in the zoo perfect for families taking children to the zoo. The rooms are quite dated, bathroom had really musty almost mouldy smell although the shower was great and very powerfull. The bed in room was huge and the room itself was spacious, although basic e.g no biscuits, water, iron or extra touches. Staff helpfull and friendly. Overall... More

We visited Edinburgh by car and needed somewhere close to the City, with plenty of parking and with a gym or pool (it has both). We chose this hotel because we thought it was near enough to the attractions and yet far enough away to enable us to get a good night's sleep. In all respects, this hotel suited us... More

I booked here for the bank holiday weekend with my girlfriend. The location was good as its next to the zoo and a bus stop outside so didn't have to worry about taking the car into the city centre. Free car parking which was a bonus and all the staff proved to be very helpful and friendly. I also booked... More

this was not the best holiday inn i have stayed in. Rooms a bit dated,no fridge,iron or safe.No complimentary water or biscuits..(may seem petty but it all adds to the experience)that said I did get a good deal via superbreaks so cannot really complain.If you want the Zoo this Holiday inn is ideal..but also not too bad for the city.....
