The riccarton inn is an old style coaching inn...it is cosy and full of character...the food is delicious. The rooms are clean but basic. They have en suite facilities...tea and coffee making facilities and a TV. The bed has cotton linen on it and they provide towels. It is ideally located on a main bus route into the city centre only 20-25 mins away. They don't provide breakfast but the room itself was only £58 for an overnight stay which is great value for Edinburgh. We had a comfortable night's sleep and would recommend this accomodation for any occasion.

The room and bathroom were large enough to move about. The towels and bedding were top notch! Hazel and her staff were wonderful! The bus stop in front of the building was a very convenient and economical way to go into the city center. We would return in a heartbeat!

Full disclosure, I did not stay in the room so my rating does not include it. Please note that they have limited check in hours -- which of course is wonderful for anyone with a flight arriving later on in the night. No one was available by call. And I was not given a refund. The outside of the hotel looks just a little sketchy but they have made the most of the parking lot space and added seating & lighting. I'm sure during regular hours its very lively, and gives a homely feel. It's also a pub! So if you're into having that available with a hotel, this might be for you! The hotel is not THAT close to the airport (many other closer options available), and was about a 40 euro taxi ride (from airport around 10:30pm) so if you're looking for something close by, this might not be the best option. It is accessible by bus if public transportation is a consideration.

Really fair price and very conveniently located
Great place to stay for the price, with fantastic transport links into Edinburgh City Centre and their own parking, would definitely stay there again if I had an event in Edinburgh. Sadly I didn't get to try their food as I was not around for mealtimes but the menu looked lovely and also very fairly priced. The 11am checkout time is great and they were really friendly about me being a little early for check-in after a long journey

Lovely stay
Stayed for the Tattoo - very reasonably priced when other hotels charge through the nose!! Pub/Restaurant excellent - lovely food - had evening meal and 2 breakfasts - all excellent so well done to the chef!! Rooms basic and in need of a wee makeover (esp bathroom in room 5) - otherwise, cant fault it at all. Also on main bus route - very good bus service - got into the city centre in 20 minutes. Would definately stay again - thanks to all

Good option, quick train ride to the city centre. Nice place to stay, relatively quiet in the evenings. Helpful staff and good breakfast in the morning worth the cost. Very worthwhile for the money paid

The pub part was excellent. We didn't try food as late back each evening. Our room was warm and beds comfy. The room itself could benefit with some modernising of furniture. And unfortunately a fair bit of dust on the headboards and lamp. The bathroom needs a complete refresh. Cracked and loose floor tiles. Back of the door and skirting in dirty condition. That said for Edinburgh area it was a great price

We had a pleasant stay the staff were fantastic and location good for fhe airport and access ti the city by public transport. The accommodation is dated and needs some renovation shower constantly on super hot. Restaurant was good evening meal was fantastic but breakfast very greasy and not value for money. We would stay again if in Edinburgh again but avoid room 5 as nextvto beer garden and car park so noisy at most times. The evening barcteam were friendly and helpful and would recommend the chicken haggus and bacin pie and hazy local ipa beers.

This was a low budget one night stay. I didn’t expect luxury. I was however positively surprised about how accommodating the staff were. Very friendly, professional and flexible. The room ticked all the boxes. It was clean and has coffee for the morning. You would pay more for some of the youth hostels in the toon. As a Middle Aged woman I was delighted with Riccarton inn x
