Holiday Inn Edinburgh North

Clean and comfortable, although a bit small.

The second night of my stay, there were noisy people going up and down the hall half the night, continually slamming doors, talking loudly. The next night, there was loud music from a function directly beneath my room. When I phoned to complain, I was told basically nothing could be done about it until it was over.

The walk to the city centre was 40-45 mins long at a good pace or a one way taxi trip was $16.00 CAD approximately. Nothing at all wrong with the hotel itself and the residential area very pleasant but the view from the hotel room was almost country side, you walked 10 minutes just to see the signs pointing to the city centre. It was not at all convenient and did not meet my location expectations at all. read more

The hotel is clean and has very friendly staff. The bar is open 24 hours if you fancy a drink late at night.
The room was spacious and relatively luxurious.

This is a newer hotel located in a quiet residential neighborhood. Our room had a nice view of the castle. The room was comfortable and quite spacious for a UK hotel. All areas were clean and in good repair. The staff was courteous and helpful. The distance is too far to walk to central Edinburgh but for only one pound it was very simple to catch a bus into the city directly in front of the hotel. A taxi from the train station cost about 8 pounds, and from the airport about 15 pounds. The small shopping center across the street provides opportunities for inexpensive snacks or meals. read more

10-15 min. bus ride from Princess Street (center of town). Excellent accommodation for the price. The rooms were clean and updated.

The Holiday Inn Edinburgh is a newer hotel. It is clean and the staff was very nice and helpful. It was quite a bit further from the center of Edinburgh than I would have expected. We had to take a bus to and from the center of town. I would not have considered this city center as we could not have walked to town. It was fairly easy to catch a bus to and from town though and it was not expensive. read more

This hotel was not at all well located for those visiting Edinburgh. It's a 20 minute plus bus ride to get to the city center.

Wonderful staff. Easy to find. Easy to leave rental car at hotel and use bus service to central Edinburgh.
