Ich hatte das Ensuite Zimmer. Auch wenn es natürlich kein luxus hotel ist, was es sehr sauber, das Personal sehr freundlich und die Lage super für eine Durchreise: Nah am Flughafen und Edinburgh. Parkplatz ist vorhanden auf dem Gelände und so weit ich weiss, hat es auch gleich an der Strasse Busstops. Beim Frühstück hat man alles, was man braucht mit Auswahlmöglichkeit.

Mixed Experience During Our Stay

My wife and I stayed at this hotel for two nights during our road trip to Edinburgh. The check-in process was smooth, and the staff were friendly, which we appreciated. Having a parking lot was also very convenient. However, there were some issues during our stay. When we entered our room, the heater was off, and the room was quite cold. Although the staff turned it on promptly when we mentioned it, it would have been better if the room was warm upon arrival. The room had a private bathroom, but there were no slippers provided, which was a bit inconvenient. Additionally, the kettle in the room was rusty, so we couldn’t make tea or coffee. At breakfast, since we don’t consume meat products, we were served just one egg and one tomato, which felt insufficient. The packaged products on the table were overly sweet, so we ended up skipping breakfast entirely and decided to leave early the next morning. While the staff were kind and accommodating, I believe the hotel could improve its amenities and breakfast offerings for a better guest experience.

Staff was pleasant and transport links were great. However next to a main road which wasn’t great and we gave up using the en-suite as it was causing a lot of noise . The communal toilets also had the same problem but not as bad as they weren’t in the same room as you. The room was very cramped and bed was serviceable but not very comfortable I would stay again , but would avoid the en-suite rooms

Good place

Place is fine to stay if you’re just using it as a bed or base for going into the city centre/murrayfield. Very easy to get to. The Asian man at the front is very nice and helpful. Only issue I had was the water pressure of the shower, it’s very weak. Aside from that, happy to stay there again

The staff makes the Twin Lions a nice place to stay. Also I made a mistake and book a night for two rooms while by myself and left me homeless for the second night after I arrived, Second night after 4 nights. They accommodated me no questions ask and it was my fault. Next time in Edinburgh I am staying at the Twin Lions. Besides breakfast is good!!!

Had a good stay. I had the room with my own private bathroom. The room was clean and the hotel itself was nice and quiet so got a good night’s sleep. It’s quite outdated and the bathroom door didn’t have a handle on the inside. A small thing that can easily be rectified. The TV was tiny but I had a good night’s sleep which is the most important thing. Breakfast was really good. The hosts were very nice.

This property appears to be run by a nice family. They let me check in very early in the morning without additional costs, and when I had to leave prior to breakfast, packed up a nice breakfast to go that I was able to take on the road. The room I was in could use refreshing however, its current state reflected the cost which was very reasonable.

The staff and owners were very friendly and accommodating! They were the highlight of the establishment. They allowed us to drop off our luggage when our flight arrived early in the morning. Hot breakfast was always provided with friendly service. When our activities required us leaving the hotel before breakfast, they made sure to provide us with fruit, juice, and pastries to go the night before. When we mentioned being cold the first afternoon (since we come from a much warmer climate), they brought a space heater and then made sure to turn on the radiator for us for the evening. The gentleman that manned the front desk in the evenings was always prepared to help with any questions we had about getting around to our destinations the next day. The room was clean, though small. There was very little space to move around. The mattresses could have used a rotation, and the shower showed signs of mold, as well as the shower door not shutting properly. Other than that, the room was well maintained. The rest of the property also seemed well maintained. The area was quiet and there was a bus stop conveniently located in front of the hotel, with the return stop just a few minutes walk down the street. This made getting around fairly easy. It was also a short walk to the Edinburgh zoo!
