“edinburgh holiday inn express”

very good value for money, good breakfast and great location near some nice restaurants and bars and short walk to shops.

“edinburgh sound of music!!”

Short break to theatre for a birthday gift hotel and staff lovely, and more than helpful. Room comfortable and clean, slightly smaller than i expected but not a major issue. Good value for money and an ideal location for theatre, shopping and Leith excellent choice of restaurants in surrounding area.

“Good night in Edinburgh”

Really nice room with everything we needed for a single night stay. Great breakfast buffet with plenty of variety. Great value room.

“I won't stay anywhere else!”

Cannot recommend this hotel highly enough! Such good value for money, clean, modern and comfortable, with the added bonus of a great location, very close to all the action of central Edinburgh. The service was excellent too, my friend and I were made to feel very welcome and well looked after. Oh, and let's not forget the free hot breakfast in the morning, best way to start a big day of sightseeing! Gotta be honest, I didn't want to leave!

“Great for Price and Location”

I visit Edinburgh 3-5 times a year and have stayed at Holiday Inn Express - Edinburgh City Centre three times now (all during Peak Periods) and have always found this to be the best for price and location. Staff are friendly and the rooms are great, clean and all the amenities you need. I would say more of a 3.5 to 4 star hotel. (just no fridge)

“Very Good”

Had a pleasant stay and the staff is very accommodating.

“An excellent stay!”

Considering the deal we received through Expedia we would rate our experience as superb. The hotel is a handy 5 minute walk from Waverley Station. We received a quick and friendly check in and then were pleasantly surprised by the room size and quality. Breakfast was an added bonus which we greatly appreciated, despite it being rather chaotic and low on some of the choices. The hotel has a nice bar and vending machines on various floors which we found useful. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to booking our next one! Many thanks.

“Picardy Place Holiday Inn - brilliant!”

Good location - friendly staff. Fantastic breakfast.

“Excellent stay overall, with very few exceptions.”

Good attention to detail in the room, including layout and bathroom facilities. Very clean and tidy and very good size room. Television remote control or alarm did not work too well unfortunately, but reception staff were happy to arrange a wake up call. Breakfast was very busy at about 0915am and both queues for the three hot items at the buffet moved slightly slowly due to the limited speed of refills. Otherwise, very enjoyable, excellent room design, quality and clenliness and a highly recommended hotel.Location was also superb for shopping or city centre access.
