Inconvenient place, nothing to do, nothing to eat. Breakfast is poor, not too many options. Insufficient tables, cups, plates, and food. Completely ridiculous. Very noisy, can't sleep. The work desk is damaged, please keep your children away from there.

This is a great place to stay for an early departure from the airport. You can see the runway from the rooms but they are quiet and comfortable. Shuttle service is reliable and frequent (approximately every 15 - 20 minutes). Breakfast buffet is available early which is very convenient.

Hôtel was very tired for the price

The staff was very kind and helpful. That is the only plus. The halls were dirty, and the furniture in the rooms was very worn and stained. The shuttle to the EDI airport was good, and I couldn’t wait to get on it.

Pleasantly surprised at how quiet it was. Beds were super comfortable. Shuttle bus was convenient. The only downside I would say was the quality of the meal we had at the restaurant. I had a steak pie which looked and tasted like a cheap frozen one. It was expensive for what it was.

The hotel was a 15 minute walk from the airport. Buses come to the airport but not to the hotel. The hotel is hidden off to the side of the airport and it isn’t directly around much. Didn’t hear the planes which was good. Hotel was nice. You do pay for parking. It is about 25 minutes away from the castle.
