Stayed for a friend's wedding about 5 miles from the hotel. As ever, the Premier Inn was convenient, comfortable, and decent value. Entirely consistent with my expectations. The staff were particularly helpful. …

The hotel is in a great location for the airport. Car parking is available although car park is not huge. All staff were friendly and helpful. Good choice and quality of food for breakfast. Very well appointed room and very comfortable bed. Have stayed here before and will be happy to stay here again in the future.

Room was clean and comfortable (pillows were rock hard though). Service was excellent. The location can't be beat...10 min drive from the airport so not too noisy air traffic. 7£ for parking didn't seem a bad price. I would stay here again.

It is always just what i need; super comfy bed and clean bathroom. Soulless but if you just need sleep, it's perfect. Very average restaurant food but nothing else around. Quiet, despite being right beside the airport. I think planes stop through the night but I slept easily till 8. Always great value for money

Friendly greeting on arrival despite all the computers going down. We couldn't get our room straight away. No issues.When we got our rooms, they were very clean. The beds are super comfy.Surprisingly, being on a flight path it was very quiet.Very easy to get to the airport as well.

Just wanted to post a review about one person in particular, the lady on reception who I can only describe as having short bobbed hair as unfortunately I did not get her name possibly (Tracey) was amazing from start to finish. Unfortunately I could not book the whole week as they were busy but she checked everyday for a spare room and reminded me whenever I came back into the hotel to book it and she would change the booking. I managed to spend the whole week there due to her. few and far between people like this well done! I really appreciated it, thank you.

It's a premier Inn. It doesn't score highly in any category but it's clean cheap and easy. Breakfast is usually a highlight. Staff are friendly. Close to the airport. Bit of a good desert though if you're not planning on eating on site

We stayed here mid July before our flights the next morning. It was clean, spacious, the mattresses were comfy (I would have loved a second pillow for myself, but I didn't ask). We had dinner and breakfast here, nothing special, but it fit the bill. Overall, very happy with the quality and cleanliness for what we paid (we booked it 6 months early, so I'm sure that was cheaper than last minute). Ubered to the airport the next morning.

Just a one night stopover waiting for a flight to connect to London. Personally the bed wasn't to my liking,nor were the pillows - a restless nights sleep. Cleanliness and hygiene were very good. …

Perfect for the first night and late arrivals in Edinburgh. The concierge Allan was the absolute best and nicest person ever. He helped us out so much and got out of his way to help us plan our further stay in scotland. Best man!
