Holiday Inn Edinburgh by IHG
The lobby and dinning areas are updated and welcoming. The halls between rooms are very tired and need a refresh. The room was clean but need updating as well.

Britannia Hotel Edinburgh
We booked this hotel as it was close to the city centre and provided (paid) parking. Our room was very clean but the decor within as well as throughout the hotel is very dated and could do with a freshen up. Breakfast can be added on for £12 per person. It was ok.
