ibis budget Hotel Edinburgh Park, hotel in Edinburgh

An 8-minute drive from Edinburgh Airport, ibis Budget Hotel Edinburgh Park lies just off the City of Edinburgh Bypass and 30 minutes’ walk from Edinburgh Park Train Station.

The price was good for how close it was to the airport. Next time I might pay the higher price to be right at the airport, though I doubt I would ever make another plane reservation at 5 AM again but we’ll see.

FAQs about hotels in Edinburgh









A Feast for the Senses

A city of heritage, heart and of course Hogmanay, Scotland’s capital is vibrant and edgy. Whether or not you come for one of its many festivals, Edinburgh is quite simply a feast for the senses.

The wealth of Edinburgh sights ranges from Holyrood Palace to the Botanical Gardens, Princes Street to the Royal Mile. Overseeing them all is majestic Edinburgh Castle. Be there at sunset on a clear day to see the city below bathed in a warm, orange glow. Simply stunning.

Wandering the streets, the smell of fish and chips wafts by, with the unique twist of salt ‘n’ sauce – a must-try variation on this favourite dish. Follow it up with a smooth whisky and you’ll start to feel like a local.

For a taste of Scottish culture, a kilt-wearing busker often plays the bagpipes on Waverley Bridge, while traditional folk music can be heard in some Old Town pubs. Complete your stay with a rugby match at Murrayfield or a round at one of the city’s 14 golf clubs, and you’ll have the true Edinburgh experience.

Whether you are looking for hotels near Edinburgh Airport or accommodations in the city center, Booking.com has a great range to choose from.

    The weather wasn't ideal - even though it was the end of May we assumed we would have sun / cloudy weather. It rained, a lot. We managed to visit Arthur's Seat - this was incredible and one of my main reasons for visiting. We saw Edinburgh Castle, visited a few restaurants and shops as well.

    There’s lots to do for a short city trip. Loads of art galleries, which are of particular interest for us. We spent hours walking and visiting the various historical sites. The botanical garden was very enjoyable. There are also more than enough good bars, pubs and restaurants. Transport is also easy, we visited Leith and Portobello, both were worth the short trips out of the centre.

    You have to check in at the pub, which is only around the corner from the hotel. Absolutely loved the staff! They were ever so accommodating, especially with complimentary drinks at arrival. Loved the location with it being a good walk to Edinburgh City Centre - where there was a plethora of independent cafes and bakeries selling all sorts of goodies. When you're done exploring Edinburgh, then the bed doesn't go amiss, along with the en suite facility. To reiterate, a great family owned establishment at a great location.

    We had a brilliant stay in Edinburgh, the hotel were brilliant. We were surprized by the size of the room, as we expected something smaller. The bathroom was a really good size with all the necessary toiletries. The staff was brilliant, very helpful, they kept our luggage both on the day or arrival and departure. The hotel is right in the centre, 1 minute walk to the royal mile. It is a brilliant location if you want to explore Edinburgh city centre. We really enjoyed our stay and we will be going back again.

    Great location between George and rose street in new town. Very close to the tram to get from and to the airport. The walk to old town, the royal mile and Edinburgh Castle was just a short and easy to do. But most of all the staff was very responsive, great to work with and very helpful during our stay. I can not say enough about the staff and location proximity to everything you want to do, plus a great view of Edinburgh Castle from the front door!

    Location is good as it's around 15-20 mins by walk to old town and touristic attractions. Including car park which is important for someone coming with car. Beds are comfortable and room size is acceptable. I stayed there with my brother and sister and I think one of the best options near city centre for groups of 3 people. I think good value for money.
