Holiday Inn Edinburgh by IHG
No tea and coffee in the room. We called reception and had to call again after one hour of waiting for it, even then it didnt get delivered to the room.

Moxy Edinburgh Airport
Walkable from airport, if not too much luggage. Great selection at breakfast. Rooms small yet functional. Fun deco. A great last night before an early flight. Would not stay here to visit Edinburgh, but responds well to the need near airport
