A verified traveller stayed at Holiday Inn Express - Edinburgh City Centre, an IHG Hotel
"This was a first stop on my Scotland trip. The check-in was expedient and was given a double bed with bathroom.
The radiator did not put out much heat but I draped my rain-soaked clothing over a chair in front of it for a quicker drying.
The breakfast was wonderful and well worth the price - get it! The spread was open early with many hot/cold options.
The only inconvenience was one entrance/exit. "

There is a restaurant on site as well as a bar. "
