Very clean room and efficient staff. I gave 4 stars for the useful amenities only because I couldn't open one side of the wardrobe fully due to its proximity to the desk in the room and there was no counter space for toiletries in the bathroom.

I've got to say, for the price this place was excellent and my room was more than adequate for a three night stay. The bar staff were hospitalitable and the local cafe (5 minutes away) was the perfect spot for breakfast before heading into town. I was bit emotional when I left as that Inn had done me proud. Will look for this lovely pub again the next time I visit Edinburgh!

Stayed at the Riccarton Inn on Friday night and had a great experience. The room was excellent—comfortable, clean, and well presented. The food and drink in the bar area were brilliant, with a really good atmosphere to relax in after a long day. Service was friendly and efficient throughout. Location-wise, it’s ideal—especially if you’re a parkrun tourist. Being so close to the local route made it the perfect base for the weekend. Would definitely stay again.
