Riccarton Inn

Ideal for visiting Edinburgh, bus stop near riccarton inn nice evening meal on site good breakfast options within walking distance we were in room 4 which needs a bit of tlc mattresses very soft and sagging in the middle on both beds, there was a hole in the wall which was covered bottom drawer in chest of drawers fell apart

Friendly staff, felt so welcomed here. Definitely will stay again x

Clean comfortable room, one of 5 attached to pub. Good parking and easy access to central Edinburgh via bus routes 44 and 45. Had a couple of great evening meals. No longer do breakfast but Corner Cafe is 5 mins walk along the main road.

We booked this after they suddenly had a room available a week before we headed to the Fringe. It was great value - it's

everything was good

It was a great stay for the night before a flight. The food and service was fantastic. Highly recommend for the budget travellers.

Would recommend, I was just passing through as a solo traveler needed a one night stay, and it was perfect for what I wanted a nice bed a very clean room and a very hot shower. The staff were great and could not do enough for me.

Clean and friendly

Nice atmosphere

This is an inn whose primary purpose is providing excellent food and drinks to their guests and the wider community. They happen also to have five en suite rooms to let. I was not their ideal guest in that I have digestive issues which mean my diet is very restricted, especially when I’m travelling. Consequently, the food and drinks side of things was irrelevant to me. I made do with the local supermarket, knowing what I safely can and can’t eat. But for the vast majority of their guests, I’m guessing this is foodie heaven. So other reviews would suggest. I can only judge from the accommodation angle, which is perhaps unfair. The room was quiet, an acceptable size but in need of some TLC. The wifi was slow and clunky. But, on a positive note, the price was more than reasonable, to be honest, the only reason I chose the Riccarton Inn. There is a bus to Edinburgh city centre right outside that takes around 35 minutes, it seems to go every 15 minutes or so. The local supermarket, a few minutes walk away, is well stocked with basics and run by a local family who work very long hours, from 7am to 10pm weekdays, slightly less on weekends. As I said, I’m not their prime demographic, so in a way this is an unfair review. I wouldn’t go back because the comfort levels weren’t high enough. But, if good food is a priority in your life, then go for it.
