    rating31 May 2026

    The location is close to the airport. The hotel is in rough shape and needs to be cleaned better. The elevator broke down while were there. The food quality is very poor.

    Exceeded expectations.

    rating30 May 2026

    A flying visit after a late flight from Turkey. The reception lady at 3am was lovely! Got us sorted, helped with the free parking and for 3am was a delight! Beds are great, the bathrooms look brand new and I think it's had a refurb. Despite the late arrival we got up for breakfast and I'm pleased we did. The breakfast is absolutely lovely. There is loads of choice and it is really good quality. Overall for a flying visit this hotel has exceeded expectations. Definitely a possibility for the next time we take advantage of Scotland's holidays being different to ours and travel up from Newcastle. Claire Duncan, Owner at Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh Airport By IHG, responded to this review Dear Steve1854,Thank you so much for your review, we are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your recent stay with, and we very much hope we have the opportunity to welcome you back again soon!Kind RegardsClaire - Hotel Manager

    Adequate

    rating17 May 2026

    We stayed here one night before our flight home. The room was a standard hotel room with a fairly large room and bathroom. Cleanliness could have been a bit better. Our room was close to the lobby so it was loud at times. There was a fan provided, which helped with temperature and blocking out the noise. We also ate at the restaurant for both dinner and breakfast and it was just okay. We used the shuttle both to and from the airport. The hotel's website says to call a phone number for the shuttle but when we called that number (which we had to borrower an airport worker's phone to do), they rudely told us we shouldn't have called and to go to the bus stop #10. The website should be updated with that info because we would have never figured out where to go because there were no signs. Overall, our stay was adequate but we were glad we were only there one night. Hotel Manager Manager, Owner at Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh Airport By IHG, responded to this review Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We are pleased to hear that you found your room comfortable for your overnight stay. We are however sorry that cleanliness and noise near the lobby did not fully meet expectations and that the restaurant offering felt average for both dinner and breakfast, we are currently working on a new evening dining menu. We are particularly disappointed to read about the shuttle experience and the confusion caused by the information provided. We have taken on board your feedback and we are in the process of updating the online information for future guests.We hope you will come back and stay with us again.Kind regards, Claire - Hotel Manager
