The Spotlight on ibis budget Hotel Edinburgh Park

Smart Stay Outside the City, With Direct Tram to the Music

Modern, no-fuss and wallet-friendly, the ibis budget Hotel Edinburgh Park is a great base for concert-goers who want comfort without the city centre price tag. Located just off the City of Edinburgh Bypass and a short tram ride from the heart of the city, this hotel balances convenience and quiet. With air-conditioned rooms, free WiFi, and easy connections to both the airport and Edinburgh’s live music scene, it’s a popular pick for fans on the move.

Why Concert-goers love it

The hotel is just steps from the Gyle Centre Tram Stop, where trams run directly to the city centre—and to some of Edinburgh’s biggest music venues—in under 20 minutes. After the show, hop a late tram back without worrying about long walks or expensive taxis. Plus, with late check-out at 12:00pm, you can sleep in after a night of encore cheers and crowd singalongs. The vibe is quiet, making it a great place to recharge post-show.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an affordable base with easy transport
  • Solo travellers checking off a must-see gig
  • Couples planning a low-key weekend getaway
  • Fans who value peace and quiet after the encore
  • Budget-conscious music lovers wanting city access without city prices

Food and Drink Options

While there's no full-service restaurant, the hotel offers a continental breakfast buffet—perfect for refuelling after a late night—and 24/7 vending machines with drinks and snacks. There are also several casual dining spots within walking distance, and the tram provides access to the full range of Edinburgh’s dining scene in just minutes.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself keeps things quiet, it's an easy ride to the city centre’s bars, pubs, and live music venues. Whether you're into cozy whisky lounges or buzzing late-night spots, you’ll find something to suit your post-gig mood—then return to your quiet room for a good night’s sleep.

What People Say

Guests regularly praise the excellent transport links, calling it “perfect for getting to gigs without paying city centre prices.” Many also mention the clean rooms and friendly staff as highlights. It’s described as “basic but super functional”—just what most concert-goers need.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms are on the smaller side and the décor is simple—don’t expect luxury touches. Some guests mention the lack of an on-site bar or restaurant as a downside, but the nearby tram makes it easy to find food and drinks elsewhere.

The Bottom Line

If you want an affordable, quiet place with easy tram access to Edinburgh's top concert venues, ibis budget Hotel Edinburgh Park hits all the right notes.

Definitely one you should avoid...

Liked: We liked that they refunded one of the two rooms we abandoned upon checking in and seeing the conditions.
Disliked: The rooms were the smallest we've ever seen, out of hundreds of stays elsewhere. One room had stains on the bedspread and sheets. The manager, though, cooperated in refunding that room, though it took a few follow-up phone calls. We were not successful in getting a refund on the other room that had to be abandoned to keep our travel party together. Some of the exterior windows, perhaps to public spaces or maintenance areas, were broken; concerning as we carried our luggage in. Edgy. The hotel was a 30 minute drive from Edinburgh proper; but that was our fault for not noticing the distance prior to making reservations. IBIS is a name we generally trust. This was certainly not up to their standards.
