Guest reviews for Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh - Leith Waterfront, an IHG Hotel

3 out of 5
The lack of on-site carparking was disappointing and inconvenient when the hotel advertises that parking is available. The food in the restaurant was very ordinary, and we imagine that better could be had in the shopping centre over the road. Half of the breakfast menu was not available. The rooms were clean and and a good size.
