High Standard for a Holiday...
Liked: Location at the tram line to Edinburgh saves a lot of car parking angst.Location near the Royal Yacht Britannia was also an easy walk, and a very enjoyable experience.This is a busy Holiday Inn some days, but the Staff cater well for the guests at Breakfast and otherwise.I booked a king size bed and we had a lovely room looking to the port. Window could be opened too, to air the room.We had to repack after 6 weeks travelling, to return to Australia, and the room gave us ample space for that too.The 24 hour coffee etc machine in the Breakfast Room is very handy for that cuppa!The Hotel also let me use my Disability Pass from Oz (like local Blue Card) to park free in their car park the days and nights we stayed.
Disliked: No fault of the Hotel, but it was a bit of a walk to Restaurants down by the river. Pays to walk through the wide lane at the back of the next streetscape, instead of the very ordinary road in front, with cars whizzing by.There are some limited eating places at the Ocean Terminal nearby I believe, but this is all a bit run down at the moment, except you need to go there to see the Britannica. Cruise ships go to several spots in Edinburgh apparently, so not all come here. We did eat at the Hotel one night, and it was fine.

Disappointing and very stressful
Liked: The location and easy access to teams and buses to City Centre
Disliked: It was very noisy at night with children running up and down and banging doors. The communal areas on the 4th floor hadn’t been vacuumed. Breakfasts were chaotic - long queues, food not always available, eg lack of cutlery, coffee machines breaking down. Not our usual expectation.

Liked: The location and the bed
Disliked: The breakfast was very busy with a queuing system in place. There was not enough space for all of the customers. There was frequently no fruit, marmalade, cutlery and crockery. It was chaotic and badly run.
