Stayed for one night this past July with my wife, son, and nephew due to the fact that we had an early flight the next morning. The room was small, but clean and the boys enjoyed the pool. Bedding for the foldout couch was not in the room, and it took several calls before anyone responded. However, my dissatisfaction with this Hilton stems from the restaurant. My nephew had ordered a pasta dish. When he tried it, we could see by his expression something was wrong. I tasted one of the pasta pieces, and it actually tasted as though the cheese had gone bad or they had used grated soap instead! The waiter was apologetic and took the dish away. However, he soon returned with it and stated that the manager would not take it back as it had been eaten. Two pieces out of the entire bowl were eaten! Worse the restaurant manager would not even come to the table to discuss the issue. I wrote a letter to the Hilton Corp., and they said they would look into it. I received a basic letter from the hotel stating they would try better in the future. So I am still out the cost of this horrid meal. Not exactly "customer friendly".

This was one of the most attractively decorated hotels I saw in the Edinburgh area, which is saying something. Most Edinburgh hotels are decorated in this abominable modern contermporary stark sparse style that is not what we Americans expect of British/UK hotels. We think chintz, they thing shades of pistachio and chocolate and chrome.

I stayed at the Edinburgh Hilton after my flight was canceled due to mechanical troubles. It was a very welcome respite after waking very, very early that morning to get to the airport on time, rushing, only to find out the plane was a. not taking off on time, and b. not taking off at all. I booked a room using my laptop and wi fi service in the airport, dashed over, and we (my mother and I) were upgraded to a deluxe room with two beds (hallelujah!). After some drinks in the lobby bar, and a nap, we had dinner at the lobby bar. They serve food at bar, and the restaurant was packed with a large group of French tourists, which we were warned about and asked if we wanted a reservation when we checked in. We opted for a quick dinner at the bar instead. Then it was off to bed, and another early rise to the terminal.

They have nice smelling Crabtree and Evelyn toiletries, but do lack a sundry shop, which could have helped since I did not bring a toothbrush or deodorant with me. This hotel is a nice, relaxed "Holiday Inn" type hotel, which is just fine and adequate for what it is, a place to sleep when on lay over at airport, etc. For those who are in Scotland, they have a nice deal where you can drive in from the country, park your car at their parking lot for a week, and stay the night before your flight for a package rate. It's extremely convenient, and I plan to stay there when I return to Edinburgh later this year, must fly to Edinburgh, sleep off jet lag, and then drive to Aberdeenshire.

stay at hotel before flight and it was very pleasant. My dinner was amazing and I love the very scottish/british menu! My friend with me drooled over it! bar was very friendly and had a mixture of people having a good time. Room very nice and enjoyed the shortbread included! bed was very comfy.

No airport noise whatsoever and is in an excellent location for an early flight.

Our family of four spent over two weeks in Scotland touring. Our flight home from Edinburgh was at 5:55am. We had enough Hilton points to get a fee night at this hotel. It was a great arrangement for us. We arrive late from a day of touring Hadrian's Wall. The hotel is on the airport road. After dropping off luggage with the help of a very friendly staff, the rental car drop-off at the airport was practically next door. We were able to just walk through the car park back to the hotel. The restaurant offerred relatively simple fare and the value was only so so. However, it was a perfect place to park the night before leaving for home. It was unassuming but the rooms offer two double beds which was a great saving for a family of four. The hotel offerred free shuttle service 24 hours a day for the airport. For us, it was perfect for our purpose.
