Holiday Inn Edinburgh, an IHG Hotel 132 Corstorphine Road, Corstorphine, Edinburgh EH12 6UA

"The staff were very pleasant and helpful, definitely an asset to the hotel. Our room was clean and warm. The breakfast was self service and good, though very busy. Pool and spa facilities were nice and clean. Requires booking a time slot, and was almost completely booked. We managed to get the last available booking (which is for an hour) Only downside is the lifts are very narrow as are some of the corridors."

"Stayed here as a stopover on the way to Aberdeen. Great location with lots of parking both at the hotel and zoo. The latter at a cost. We had a roof box and tried parking in the hotel section some of which have a low ceilings so beware. Completely our mistake got forgetting the box was there but no harm done and the box was fine. Room was clean albeit a little dated. Our room did lack plugs next to the bed and the seat provided for working was as high as the table area so your legs did not fit under the desk which is a shame. I had to take the drawers out so I could work comfortably. We had a few very noisy neighbours but they eventually settled down just before midnight. We ordered room service because we had a little one enjoy to drop and this was prompt and taste fantastic. Very generous too. Only niggle was being told we would be called about the wine selection but did not receive this. Instead we just got given a bottle of red wine which turned out to be quite expensive. Breakfast was good, self service with great views out the windows, but the fried eggs were hard/rubbery and appeared to have been sat under the lights for a bit, but otherwise there was the usual fare you'd expect. Overall I would recommend starting here but will say it's not the best Holiday Inn I've visited."

"Rooms are Very nice. You can seecthey are trying to update them. Bed hard but great for me. Clean, spacious. English breakfast was amazing. Staff are very helpful. Didn't use the pool but looks nice. Free parking. Bus stop just outside if you wanted to go into town."

"Excellent location for the zoo and for the buses going into town. The bus stop is right outside the entrance and takes you straight in to Princes Street. Overall it is a Holiday Inn so you get what you pay for. Basic room which had a bath with shower over. We had a family room which was snug with a double bed and a sofa bed in. Without the sofa bed the room would be spacious. We ate in the restaurant on the first night and although the food was OK, the service was slow and we were left for nearly an hour waiting for someone to come and clear the plates. The food was also expensive for what it was. Breakfast though was good with a nice selection and two buffets on the go to help with numbers staying in the hotel. Pool is small but fine for a quick dip with children. The gym looked well equipped."

"The hotel has a beautiful view facing the rolling hills. The rooms were clean and the service friendly. The water pressure was fantastic. The showers were like home. The restaurant served gòd food. The medium rare steak was the best. However, they start packing up breakfast 5 minutes before time so watch out. Overall, good experience."
