Had the misfortune of staying in a family room and never again , Rude arrogant staff , ran out of pillows please take my advise and stay away from this hotel . The only good point about this hotel is its next to Edinburgh zoo . more

The hotel is well located on the outskirts of the city next to the zoo. Spacious carpark . Lots of buses passing approx 15 mins from city centre near Murrayfield rugby ground. Leisure facilities good if a bit crowded. food very expensive, £8.50 for breakfast and £19.95 for 2 course carvery. Although it says children eat free this is only... more

This should be a fantastic hotel with a good location; sadly what a disappointment. The room had neither a complete linen inventory or minibar stock. When reported to reception they failed to see a problem but arranged for additional towels.

There is a good selection of food available at breakfast time and the staff are friendly enough however i... more

We stayed here on the 16th June prior to flying out from Edinburgh Airport the next day. On arrival we were warmly greeted by reception and allocated a Executive room. The room was quite spacious and well equipped. The restaurant is also very pleasant and with nice views from the panoramic windows. Although we arrived in the late afternoon we... more

Originally built in the 1960’s as a Post House hotel (hence the local name), the hotel has subsequently been considerably extended. The hotel still shares part... more
