Really fair price and very conveniently located
Great place to stay for the price, with fantastic transport links into Edinburgh City Centre and their own parking, would definitely stay there again if I had an event in Edinburgh. Sadly I didn't get to try their food as I was not around for mealtimes but the menu looked lovely and also very fairly priced. The 11am checkout time is great and they were really friendly about me being a little early for check-in after a long journey

Lovely stay
Stayed for the Tattoo - very reasonably priced when other hotels charge through the nose!! Pub/Restaurant excellent - lovely food - had evening meal and 2 breakfasts - all excellent so well done to the chef!! Rooms basic and in need of a wee makeover (esp bathroom in room 5) - otherwise, cant fault it at all. Also on main bus route - very good bus service - got into the city centre in 20 minutes. Would definately stay again - thanks to all

Good option, quick train ride to the city centre. Nice place to stay, relatively quiet in the evenings. Helpful staff and good breakfast in the morning worth the cost. Very worthwhile for the money paid

We have stayed here a few times as it's a lovely quaint little hotel and very handy for Edinburgh Airport. Food and ambience are great. We've got a couple more stays already booked.

Liked: Staff & service
The pub part was excellent. We didn't try food as late back each evening. Our room was warm and beds comfy. The room itself could benefit with some modernising of furniture. And unfortunately a fair bit of dust on the headboards and lamp. The bathroom needs a complete refresh. Cracked and loose floor tiles. Back of the door and skirting in dirty condition. That said for Edinburgh area it was a great price

We had a pleasant stay the staff were fantastic and location good for fhe airport and access ti the city by public transport. The accommodation is dated and needs some renovation shower constantly on super hot. Restaurant was good evening meal was fantastic but breakfast very greasy and not value for money. We would stay again if in Edinburgh again but avoid room 5 as nextvto beer garden and car park so noisy at most times. The evening barcteam were friendly and helpful and would recommend the chicken haggus and bacin pie and hazy local ipa beers.

This was a low budget one night stay. I didn’t expect luxury. I was however positively surprised about how accommodating the staff were. Very friendly, professional and flexible. The room ticked all the boxes. It was clean and has coffee for the morning. You would pay more for some of the youth hostels in the toon. As a Middle Aged woman I was delighted with Riccarton inn x

This is a very basic place to lay your head for the night. I loved how accessible this was, close to public transport to get into Edinburgh. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. I loved the nature walk around the area (very close to a river) the accommodation was surprisingly quiet being at a pub.. I booked the breakfast and it was incredible! Highly recommended

Two Night Stay at Riccarton Inn
Great find for a couple of nights. Room was really clean with ample space for two of us. Bathroom really clean & towles were fantastic, Staff were fine - younger staff in bar/restauarant were much friendlier than those at check in & breakfast. Food- both dinner & breakfast was excellent. Plenty of choice at both meals. Fish & chips were exceptional !!! All in all agreat stay at a good price.
