"Excellent Accomodation for the Price!"
My husband and I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express in Picardy Place while visiting Edinburgh. After reading the reviews online I was excited to see what the hotel actually looked like and we were not disappointed. The interior of the hotel is very nice and modern. Our room was spacious enough and we were able to request a room towards the back of the hotel, which I would recommend. The breakfast that was included was great, a mix of cereal, toast, muffins, yogurt, tea, and juice. The entire bar of the hotel is smoke-free which was enjoyed as well. The hotel is a 15-20 minute walk to the Royal Mile, which is where the major attractions are. It is only a 10 minute walk to Princess Street where there is shopping and restaurants. We ate at Pizza Express, which was a great pizza place near the Royal Mile. We also had reservations set up in advance for The Witchery, which is a fantastic restaurant. It was a bit expensive but well worth it!! Overall a great trip to Edinburgh.

"Excellent hotel, so good I have come back again!!!"
have stayed at this hotel before and I have come back again. Rooms are spotless and the staff are always freindly, pleasant and helpful. The breakfast is as good as last time. Good choice of cereal, crossaints, pastries, rolls, toast and hot drinks as well as fruit juice. You have to help yourself from the self service buffet and then clear your tray on to a trolley(just like IKEA). The hotel is very very busy with other guests, but even then the staff were pleasant, polite and have time for you. I guess everyone decides to come to breakfast at the same time, but there are plenty of staff around to help you. As the place is in such a great location then you don't expect complete peace and quiet as the hotel is in the city centre. Since the last time I stayed the hotel now has high speed internet in the rooms and this was excellent. The bar next to Reception is great and the prices are not as bad as a typical hotel. There is no mini-bar in the room, but there are vending machines next to the lifts and not a rip off prices! The hotel is part of the Express by Holiday Inn / HolidayInn Express chain so I always know what to expect....basically a Holiday Inn without all the extras. Yes, there is no concierge desk, no leisure club, no room service or currency exhange but to be honest I don't need these services and if I did I would stay in a Holiday Inn or a Holiday Inn Crown Plaza hotel. However, I still get my Priority Club points! There is no restaurant in the hotel and even if there was then I am too busy out and about in Edinburgh to want to dine in a hotel.

"Great stay, great location great bed!"
We are just back (yesterday) from a 2 night stay at this hotel. Its in a great location opposite the Playhouse and the Omni centre. Lovely old building but very modern inside. The staff were very friendly and helpful on everything from calling us a taxi to sorting out a noisy light in the hall outside our room. The room was lovely, at the back and peaceful, it had a nice big window, lovely decor and a very comfy bed with crisp linen. Bathroom had kind of funky lighting and a great shower, again very modern and clean. Nice sized tv with several channels and pay movies. Breakfast was a self service affair, the room itself is very nice with comfy leather seats and nice tables. Big selection of fruit/cereals/juices/hot drinks/pastries/yoghurts/preserves/bread etc, the place was very busy but staff were re-stocking everything quickly. We parked at the back of the hotel and never moved the car for the whole time as the hotel is so well located for everything we needed :) A great stay!
