Excellent stay

A very friendly greeting, plenty of information given during a hassle-free check in that made it clear that we could ask at any point if we had any issues or requests. Room was spacious, comfortable and perfectly clean. Everything that was needed for the stay. Great location for transport as well.

I had a terrible experience when check-in. We arrived several minutes before the official time, and the lady said it is not yet the time for check-in! we were shocked, and we waited several minutes more, and then approach another staff (trainee?). this another younger trainee lady was helpful, and helped us to do the check-in.

This was a great place to stay for our family trip to Edinburgh. The tram station is right outside and only 20 mins ins. We drove and parking was straight forward albeit chargeable at £8 per day. The pool was a real added bonus for our kids after a long day of tourism. Only slight issue for me is our kids are getting older and Novotels concept of a "family" room is starting to look less desirable than the Premier Inns as the sofa bed is tight. There is enough room for these to be slightly larger if they wanted and will probably steer us towards other hotels in the future. If this isn't an issue for you though, don't be out off it's a great hotel.

The hotel was clean, staff were friendly and welcoming and check in/out was simple and easy. Our room was clean, the bed was comfy, choice of pillows with extras in the wardrobe and the shower was hot and powerful. We enjoyed using the pool and steam room before check out in the morning. The only tiny problem that we had was that the car parking app didn't work; but the machine outside did, and the discount code to reduce parking to £8 for 24 hours was appreciated!

Great beds but skip the breakfast

This is a good place to stay, beds comfortable, helpful staff and easy access to the city and aiport. BUT do not bother with the breakfast buffet. I booked my room excluding breakfast but wanted to treat myself one day. Some treat! Most items from the hot buffet were dry and/or hard (how can you dry out a susage like that?) and the chilled buffet wasn't any better: 'sweaty' cheese but at the same time turning up the edges. And all for just under £20...

Travelled as a family of 4, with an 7/8 year old and 3 year old and it was such a wonderful experience. The staff, breakfast were great! The hotel is not far from the airport. Roughly a 30 min tram ride and walk to the hotel from tram station was about 5 mins. It’s a bit out in the middle of nowhere yet there was a shopping park nearby to include a grocery store. Location is perfect for travelers and not busy. It was peaceful. Would recommend for families who need to take their time with young children and not have to bustle everywhere.
