The Holiday Inn was a terrific base for us to explore & enjoy Edinburgh. I'ts not too long of a walk to the Royal Mile & all that's offered there including Edinburgh Castle. The included breakfast was more than adequate. The rooms are modern & up to date. And the staff were most accommodating.

My husband and I had arrived in a morning of September 5 to the HOLIDAY INN at Edinburgh. We booked standard room two months before and were ready to wait till 3-4 pm to be able to check in. Around 3pm Front desk person with a name MARTIN offer us a room. Martin said that our room is not ready yet but he can offer us another one. We appreciated it and got a keys. It was a room number 201. When we open the door all we can see was the room for the special needs or disability person. The room and bathroom were equipped with pull strings and some other stuff what can help a disability person to stay safe and comfortable. We were not touch anything just left our luggage and left a room. We were back to Front desk and ask Martin to give us another room. Martin refuses to help us. We were agreeing to wait for our room as long as it takes but Martin explained us that this room now IS OUR ROOM and he has nothing else. We booked standard room. Not whatever hotel offered to us. We were asking Martin for 30 min before we understood that it is a useless conversation. We did not like this room because it was very depressing to stay there. Our 3 days in the Edinburg were obviously spoiled. We are traveling a lot. It was the worst experience we ever have got. When we travel we always feel that our satisfaction is the first priority for the Hotels we visited. But not this time. We want back a full refund for this booking
