A friendly warm welcome on arrival, with a genuine smile. That was a good start after a long car journey. The lady who showed us to our rooms was warm, welcoming and approachable, she made us feel right at home and was laughing with us. Yes the hotel is a little in need of some TLC on the outside, but dont let this put you off.. on the inside lies a jewel! Highly affordable rooms, extremely clean and well thought out. With a restaurant and bar attached. What we liked: * friendly and welcoming staff * good attention to cleanliness ( we even saw the kitchen through a window in a door) * a great choice of food and all cooked to order, with the most amazing curries and fresh fish. * beds were extremely comfortable * despite being by a road, it was so quiet at night. * although the Oxgang doesnt supply breakfast, the asda approx 1/2 mile down the road does until 12noon and a full cooked breakfast cost very little and i highly recommend it, the hostess at the hotel gave me this as an option, this worked well.

There wasnt much to not like, as it was a budget price that we paid so it is hard to say.. This would be more things to mention which would add the cherry on the top.. * the meals could be a couple of pounds more, many wouldnt notice, but it may allow for the TLC which is needed. * i have no idea how, but possibly alarm clocks, as if a person has no phone its hard to wake up on time. In all honesty, i cant say anything bad about the place, it has obviously been hit hard by covid crisis and then the issues in Grangemouth, but this place really deaerves to bloom again.. it is currently a little in need of a bit of repair, updating and paint, but that is wi dow dressing, as the heart of this place is kind and warm, i hope they prosper in the future

Easy to find, room was okay size and location was ideal although if your room is at the front of the hotel it can be a little loud as you're facing the main road. Good price for what was offered, the shower was nice and warm and bathroom good size. Good customer service, I only stayed two nights and cleaner came in on the first night to replenish toiletries.

The bed was not comfortable and the doors in and out of the hotel are loud when people don't close them quietly. I was out very early on a morning so made an effort to close them softly but not everyone did this. Car park is not great, very narrow on entry and exit and lots of potholes be careful in the dark. I had to use the exit as an entrance as someone had parked not on the edge so was blocking the entrance way in.

Upgraded room which meant I was on the ground floor and suited me better with having an elderly dog. Decent size room and comfortable. There was a huge park at the end of the road great for exercising the dog. Nice meal in the bar next door.

No hot water until 7am for some reason meaning I couldn't shower and leave as early as I'd intended. Might have been mentioned somewhere on the site, but couldn't find information on charge for the dog. It was £10 which I think is excessive for one night and before "deep cleaning" is mentioned, I frequently stay in hotels etc with her and not once have I been charged as much, or at all. All rooms should be deep cleaned regardless. Oh, and the bedside light was so dim I couldn't read....

I'd booked a single room for 1 night (room no. 4) as the location and price suited me. Only Waited a minute or so to be checked in & shown to my room by the manager despite the restaurant being very busy. Room was ideal for me needs: bed was comfy, ensuite shower room was a good size with spacious shower & good water pressure. Would be a 10/10 rating but I could hear the bar / lounge.

Only minor issue was I could hear bar / lounge, but it is a restaurant with rooms, as opposed to a hotel. Would book again if circumstances required.

We stayed here when going to see Taylor Swift at Murrayfield - booked it a year ago and got an excellent deal! It was a great location, rooms were clean and comfortable and well equipped, and it was a lot quieter than I had expected! We were able to drive to the park and ride within 20 mins and get in and out of Edinburgh really easily. Great location!

The bar area was quite rowdy, and loud. This didn't affect our stay at all, we couldn't hear them in our room, but it wasn't an area where you could relax with a drink after a long journey (Maybe some people could, we couldn't!). But wouldn't stop us staying again :)

The room was big and spacious, very clean and tidy with a beautiful bay window- the shower and bathroom were clean and exactly what we needed. The bed was huge and comfy no complaints there. The staff were absolutely delightful and gave us ideas of what to see in our flying visit. The food! Wow! Absolutely stunning hands down the best curry I have ever had - I had the salmon tikka and it was so fresh and bursting with flavour- the nans were melt in the mouth and everything about the meal was sensational! If you stay here - you must try the restaurant I was blown away!

Really nice and welcoming staff, room was clean, spacious and comfortable. We were slightly late arriving after last sitting in the restaurant but they still lets us order which was much appreciated after a long journey. Food was excellent and very reasonably priced. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Will look to stay here again when we are up next month

Being really picky, a plug socket next to or near the bed would be great but thats as i say being picky.

The hotel is modern on the outside and traditional on the inside with parking to the rear. Our room was huge with a massive bay window which looked out over the tree lined street. The bathroom was spacious and had complimentary toiletries, fluffy towels and a good size shower. Our super king size bed was very comfortable and the Egyptian sheets were clean & soft. Tea & coffee making facilities and a good size tv. There is a restaurant and well stocked bar within the hotel and the menu suited all tastes, there was a children’s menu too. The food was fabulous, we had dinner from the curry menu and I highly recommend it. The staff were so friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. The reception, front of house, bar team, restaurant team and chamber staff were so lovely. We will definitely be staying again, we travelled from Somerset with our two Staffordshire Bull Terriers as we were showing them over three days, they were made very welcome which always pleases us. Highly recommended.

The potholes in the carpark but that’s only a minor issue.

Another great stay on our way between the Highlands and the Midlands, heading south this time. Great room, comfy bed, great shower, amazing value, AND the best curry outside Leicester! (I have to say that!) Management and staff are all great, so welcoming and dog friendly, even to our very chatty Basset! Thoroughly recommend this place.

The room (Room 8) was clean, large in size and spacious. The tea tray was well stocked and there were complimentary shampoo and shower gels on offer too. The lady who checked me in was really nice and couldn’t do enough for me. There is a bar with sports tv and an Indian restaurant attached but not directly attached. You can take drinks to your room which is great 👍 I will stay here again when I’m next in the area.

The car park has more potholes than the road network, which is very difficult to be worse to be fair. I could also smell cigarette smoke coming from in the hallway during the evening, so assume that a fellow resident was smoking down stairs at some point. I slept ok but the mattress itself was quite thin and i could feel the mattress springs and the lumps in my back. The wardrobe was very wobbly too, wondered if it was all going to fall apart but it held together for me anyway. Saying all this for the price paid it was good value for money.
