Receive a warm welcome at the Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh-Waterfront hotel, a peaceful base close to the city centre. Complimentary parking means you can come and go at your leisure at the modern Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh-Waterfront hotel. We're located in Leith Harbour, a short walk from the Royal Yacht Britannia and trendy harbour bistros and boutiques. Atmospheric Edinburgh Castle and the Royal Mile are just 2 miles away and you can plan your sightseeing over complimentary hot breakfast in our bright Great Room. We're well-located for business, just 12 miles from Edinburgh Airport and a 10-minute waterside stroll to the Scottish government offices at Victoria Quay and offshore companies at scenic Leith Docks. Prepare for your meeting with wireless Internet , available throughout Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh-Waterfront. Stroll to the nearby harbour to sample Scottish specialities like locally-sourced haggis in a quayside restaurant. There's boutique shopping at the Ocean Terminal mall opposite the hotel, and it's a short bus ride to world-famous Princes Street for department stores and traditional souvenirs. Spend a sociable evening in Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh-Waterfront 's relaxed bar, where friendly staff serve drinks including Scottish malt whisky. Under-19s stay free with their parents at the hotel, making us a good-value choice for family breaks.

Friendly Scotland

The staff were warm and friendly and a great source of information. They helped make sure you knew where to go, how to get there and shared the secrets of day trips. Rooms are small but that is the norm in this part of the world but they were clean. The room did need some storage space since there is no drawers. Overall our experience was great.

Gutes Preis Leistungsverhältniss

Das Zimmer war sauber und ordentlich. ein bisschen klein. das badezimmer hatte eine grosse dusche. im schlafzimmer selber hat es ein föhn und ein fernseher. das bett ist ein bisschen hart aber insofern ok. Das frühstücks buffet ist nicht so gross, dafür hat man ein bisschen von allem. Das hotelpersonal ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Sie geben gerne auskunft. wir konnten problemlos ein auto mieten an der rezeption sowie auch als wir sehr spät zurück kamen etwas aufs zimmer bestellen und zu Abend essen.

Money-saving tip: Short walk from hotel

Beim Bus, wenn man mehr als einmal am Tag in die Stadt geht, ein Tages ticket lösen für 3.50. Spart zeit und geld.
