Premier Inn Edinburgh East

Perfect place for rest after long tiring days

I wanted to share this review of Premier Inn Edinburgh (south Queensferry) Hotel on Tripadvisor: https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/ShowUserReviews-g4049419-d570599-r1049357946-Premier_Inn_Edinburgh_south_Queensferry_Hotel-South_Queensferry_Edinburgh_Scotl.html

Dirty room, lots of noise clearly heard through walls. Small details like duvet cover inside out, heater damaged/bent made for overall poor experience. Would have left if not late and exhausted

Really poor. Shocked this even carries the Premier Inn name. By far the worst we've ever stayed at, which is a real shame as we almost always chose Premier Inn. This hotel has become very sub-standard for this brand. Really needs some investment in maintenance!

We visited on Tue, Wed checkout Thursday. We received a nice warm welcome and got to our very warm and convenient room. This is Edinburgh on a wet freezing cold day so we were ready to kick off our shoes and dry off before heading downstairs for dinner. Bear in mind Scotland were playing Denmark for a place in the World Cup 2026. We enjoyed our starters but then heard a huge roar from the kitchens! Scotland had just scored minutes into kick-off and I couldn't help feeling that the tv took priority over our mains. Our fillet steaks (medium) arrived pink in the middle but cool and dry. The flat mushroom wasn't a flat mushroom. It was a general kind about an inch and a half diameter and the grilled tomato was half of a salad tomato. Peas were dry. We really couldn't be bothered making a fuss. We were so tired, I could have fallen asleep at the table. I wouldn't have done as there was too much cheering from the kitchen. I'm all for celebrating a momentous occasion but in this instance, quality suffered. There was a fire alarm next morning which was handled efficiently.

Lovely hotel and staff. Nice room, cosy beds. Situated about a 15-20minute bus journey away from Edinburgh city centre, with the bus stop about a 3 minute walk away from the hotel and buses very frequent day and night. We paid £2.20 each for a single adult ticket. I believe day passes were £5.50. On our last day we went to Portobello beach, which was an 8 minute drive and was absolutely lovely. Would recommend this hotel!
