The property was well kept, though an older building it was clean. It was handy to have the restaurant right there. It was close to the airport, and the staff was very friendly. Oh, and the bed was very comfortable. Even better than my own.

My flight was delayed but the staff was helpful in providing instructions for after midnight check in. The area looked completely deserted and my taxi driver was concerned since I am an older woman traveling alone, and my confidence was proven correct. The instructions were clear and worked perfectly. The room was comfortable and clean, just what I needed after dealing with 2 connecting flights and hours of delays. Highly recommend for affordability and quality. Wish I had time to enjoy the pub.

This is an inn whose primary purpose is providing excellent food and drinks to their guests and the wider community. They happen also to have five en suite rooms to let. I was not their ideal guest in that I have digestive issues which mean my diet is very restricted, especially when I’m travelling. Consequently, the food and drinks side of things was irrelevant to me. I made do with the local supermarket, knowing what I safely can and can’t eat. But for the vast majority of their guests, I’m guessing this is foodie heaven. So other reviews would suggest. I can only judge from the accommodation angle, which is perhaps unfair. The room was quiet, an acceptable size but in need of some TLC. The wifi was slow and clunky. But, on a positive note, the price was more than reasonable, to be honest, the only reason I chose the Riccarton Inn. There is a bus to Edinburgh city centre right outside that takes around 35 minutes, it seems to go every 15 minutes or so. The local supermarket, a few minutes walk away, is well stocked with basics and run by a local family who work very long hours, from 7am to 10pm weekdays, slightly less on weekends. As I said, I’m not their prime demographic, so in a way this is an unfair review. I wouldn’t go back because the comfort levels weren’t high enough. But, if good food is a priority in your life, then go for it.
