Top West Pilton Hotel Reviews

Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely beautiful and well appointed for the cost."

Moxy Edinburgh Airport

8/10 Good

"Absolutely a great location - so convenient to the airport for an early morning flight. Beds were comfortable and the room was clean. Front station staff was great. Lobby music was a little loud and they definietly were trying to attract a young crowd. My only disapointment with this hotel was the weird and a bit confusing dining options. The signage wasn't very good on how to order and locating a menu. Granted we were tired from a long day and at the end of a very busy trip. But maybe a bit more signage to say "Menus here" and "Order here" would be helpful."

Holiday Inn Edinburgh Zoo by IHG

8/10 Good

"Overall I cannot fault this place. The reason I have given only 4 stars and not 5 is for the fact the bar after 11pm will not accept card or cash payments for alcohol. All drinks to be added to your room. Plus levels of staff were low especially with the number's in the bar after a gig. Dont get me wrong, the staff who were working were great. Just needed more."
