Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh City West, an IHG Hotel

Location was far from the main city area. I had to take a bus but the bus stop was in front of the hotel so it was ok The rooms were quiet at night and l could get good sleep. The staff were very polite and helpful. I had to ask them how to get around to the beach area. Collin was very helpful indeed. There was another guy but l forgot his name. There was a Chinese guy at the reception and she was helpful too

I found the rooms had all you need comfy pillows iron hair dryer, the body wash and hand wash were by Dove which was so nice not the usual cheap brands

The hotel is in a very comfortable location with supermarkets, fast food restaurants nearby in case you want to buy something or eat. There are also bus stops very near to the hotel with very often itinerary for buses going to the city center (We were using the bus line 43). The room was comfortable, warm and clean and it had hair dryer, iron and ironing board inside. The room insulation was ok. The hotel staff was very polite with smiles on their faces and always willing to help us. The breakfast was also very nice with enough options to eat, coffee or juices to drink. The distance from the airport is about 20 minutes (by taxi or car). Finally, for people traveling from other European countries we suggest carrying with you a socket adopter (EU to UK) for charging your devices.

My daughter and I both liked the idea that we were shown to a table, that way they knew that we would be put on a table which was cleared. Service was with a smile too! Breakfast great! Scrambled egg was to die for ha! Liked the toast shape as the usual square bread, just sayin'. The wee pots of jam, nice jam by the way, more like jelly texture than bits in. Beans was the tasty ones, Coffee nice and hot, nice taste too! Hash browns nummy not soggy. OMG rantin on a bit. My daughter loved the sausages :) We weren't rushed out the door having the napkin still stuck in our jersey, ha! Oh and although we missed the wee muffins the first day, we did have 2 each the next day. Tut tut.

Nice clean hotel, good distance to city centre but a few other things surrounding it. Has parking which is £5pd, an esso garage underneath it and sainsbury's and other shops across the rd. Breakfast was decent and they didn't mind us taking a bit away. Uber is between £5 - £10 to city centres. Otherwise £10ph parking in centre itself. There is a bus stop across rd from hotel that goes in to town. Leaves every 20 mins. Also a kids area indoor and outdoor.
