"I booked this hotel for its great location. The Buchanan Bus station is just a 3min walk away. That's where you take the bus to/from the Airport, Edinburgh and where all the tour buses depart. It's a 5min walk to the busy Buchanan pedestrian street. The room is cozy and the bed is very comfy. There are no amenities in this Holiday Inn so basically, you are just staying for the room."

"The room I booked through *********** was terrible, so I immediately switched to this hotel. The room is small but clean, which is good. I didn't book a room with breakfast, but later added it for an extra £8.50. The breakfast was just okay, not a lot of variety, but passable."
