The riccarton inn is an old style coaching inn...it is cosy and full of character...the food is delicious. The rooms are clean but basic. They have en suite facilities...tea and coffee making facilities and a TV. The bed has cotton linen on it and they provide towels. It is ideally located on a main bus route into the city centre only 20-25 mins away. They don't provide breakfast but the room itself was only £58 for an overnight stay which is great value for Edinburgh. We had a comfortable night's sleep and would recommend this accomodation for any occasion.

The room and bathroom were large enough to move about. The towels and bedding were top notch! Hazel and her staff were wonderful! The bus stop in front of the building was a very convenient and economical way to go into the city center. We would return in a heartbeat!

Great pub with a 'local' feel

Stayed the night before an early flight from Edinburgh, so handy as it was so near the airport. The single room was basic, but fine. The pub restaurant however was fantastic - great atmosphere, good choice of beers and wine, amazing food, and friendly service. They don't do breakfast, which wasn't a problem for me, but may be for some. Would definitely stay again.

Full disclosure, I did not stay in the room so my rating does not include it. Please note that they have limited check in hours -- which of course is wonderful for anyone with a flight arriving later on in the night. No one was available by call. And I was not given a refund. The outside of the hotel looks just a little sketchy but they have made the most of the parking lot space and added seating & lighting. I'm sure during regular hours its very lively, and gives a homely feel. It's also a pub! So if you're into having that available with a hotel, this might be for you! The hotel is not THAT close to the airport (many other closer options available), and was about a 40 euro taxi ride (from airport around 10:30pm) so if you're looking for something close by, this might not be the best option. It is accessible by bus if public transportation is a consideration.
