Holiday In Express a good & reasonable priced hotel at Leith, Edinburgh

pathiyam v.family

Very nice property in Edinburgh, little away from city center but in a very silent location 2 minutes walk to Bus & Tram station. Also diagonally opposite is Royal Britannia yacht and Port of Leith Distillery. 10 minutes walk to Rushi, Indian resturent with south indian food and alcohol. Many restaurants on the riverfront 10 minutes walk. BF is just manageable.

The best place to stay in edinburgh considering the cost, advantage of having tram station & bus stop in front of hotel (ocean terminal) and 15mns travel via both modes to edinburgh city. You can reach the hotel within an hour from the airport via direct tram or bus for 5 pounds, a very beautiful place to stay and you get a good breakfast. Very neat and clean rooms with high professional employees.

Poor Stay

Rooms were extremely small, no space to even keep luggage. Extremely disappointed with the rooms. We had booked a triple room as we had a 11 year old child and inspite of it the room we got was extremely small. Staff were very courteous and good through out our stay though.

Nice location with access to Indian food

sachin d.couple

The hotel is located at ocean drive which is near to Leith waterfront. It is at a walking distance from Royal Yacht Britannia, a famous ship used by British Royalty and now a must visit tourist place. Right outside the hotel is the ocean drive bus stop from where you can take 22, 35 bus from Lothian (operator) to access almost every tourist spot in Edinburgh. The breakfast is however disappointing with very less variety and no on order food. To reach the airport it might take upto 50 mins in rush hour. But it's a calm location and great for couples and families.

Overall experience was good. But there are certain change in the tour on the spot and nobody informed us it creates a little problem. But regarding hotel no problem. So we recommend to other friends also. But if you planned for Edinburgh do not take any tours arrange it yourself.
