“Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh City Centre has an unbeatable location for exploring Edinburgh; the historical building puts you right in the heart of the New Town, close to both Waverley station and major attractions. I noted the hotel's soundproofed rooms and early check-in options as thoughtful touches for a city stay, plus, they offer a complimentary breakfast buffet that caters to various dietary needs. It's a practical choice, in my opinion, for those wanting convenience without sacrificing location.”
