Nice hotel, great location, worth it.
Pros:

Great location, spacious room, comfortable bed, good price, and lovely staff. Breakfast and meals can be pre-ordered for the restaurant, with a good variety to choose from. What's not to like!

Average
Pros:

We were a group of 20 family members from different parts of the world visiting together and although they do have big tables they insisted on separating the family during breakfast. Very disappointed

Disappointed
Pros:

This place needs a total revamp. Extremely tired looking inside.
We were met by cheerless receptionist who seem to have forgotten how to smile. l suppose when your work in a soulless atmosphere it much be catching.
The room was okay reasonably clean....however the bed was extremely comfortable. Which is why l give this review 2 stars instead of one.
Most of the doors in the corridors where battered and bruised especially the one connecting the hotel th the restaurant.
Then the price, it was priced at over £50 more than it normally is. l've checked it out over several different days.
l use Premier lnn several times during the year but l certainly won't be coming back to this one

Mouldy room. Hotel needs a refurb
Pros:

The room was rank. Horrible smell when we got in. Room 30. Then figured out the bathroom ceiling was covered in mould. And the toilet barely flushes. We will never stay here again. A health risk. I can’t speak for other rooms in the hotel.

Two night stay
Pros:

We recently stayed at the Premier Inn M8 J3 and found it to be a convenient and reasonably priced hotel with the added benefit of good parking facilities, although the spaces did seem to fill up rather quickly later on in to the evening. The staff were welcoming and the overall service was in line with what you would expect from a Premier Inn.

That said, there were a few drawbacks. The room we stayed in was located at the back near to what appeared to be a delivery point for goods in, as well as the waste collection area, which meant we were disturbed very early in the morning by operational noise. In addition, the traffic noise was more noticeable than expected, which further affected the quality of sleep. The hotel itself also feels a little dated and would benefit from a refresh to bring it up to the standard of some of the newer Premier Inn hotels.

Poor value
Pros:

The rooms are tired looking, drainage poor in toilet, staff are hard to find on reception and those you did find, looked fed up. The breakfast service was poor, nothing was replenished timely even though it wasnt busy and things like cereal, fruit and herbal tea, they were awaiting a delivery, very poor. Gone are the days when a premier inn was cheap, it was expensive for 2 nights for 2 rooms with breakfast.

Hot as balls and noisy as hell
Pros:

Unbearably hot in room, was 18 degrees outside but our room on the second floor did not dip below 25, much too hot for a comfortable nights sleep, despite having a fan in the room. As others have said you need to leave the window open but close proximity to M8 means it’s noisy through the night. Duvet was too thick for summer. Room was tired, too few plug sockets and old wood shelving and table. Really need to be booking hotels with AC in the summer now in the UK - premier inn need to retrofit some.

2 star hotel, red hot room, needs a refurbishment
Pros:

Good night guarantee does not exist! I did not get a good night sleep and they did not honour the policy! Do not stay here, it needs a deperate refurb. It is a 2 star hotel in the state it is in.

I explained the bath matt was disgusting along with the bath. There was silver tape on the towel rail, stains on the carpet. The description said it had no air conditioning but you could not open a window as it was so noisy outside. It was insanely hot even with the fan on. If the heat doesnt kill you the noise will. Constant doors banging, room service shouting in the morning and noise in the carpark .
The staff were lovely, when i spoke to them they agreed the bath tubs are disgusting and the place needed a refurbishment. There was no roilwt roll and the holder was filthy. Had to ask for toilet paper.
The light leaks in the room feom above the curtains.
It is worth getting the breckfast at the beefeater, if you do decide to stay, it is very good value for money.
If you have a gig at Murrayfield stadium do not stay here. You will get there but wont get back. Took us 3 hours to get home as there was no taxis.
The room had three plug sockets by the kettle none at all by the bed.

Great place to stay for a friends wedding.
Pros:

We were part of a small group of people who were staying for a friend’s wedding - including the Best Man and the photographer. People from the group travelled from England and Ireland as well as local friends staying - including the Groom for the night before his wedding. The hotel rooms were comfy and convenient and the restaurant and bar were also great for meeting up at and having good times with our. friends. The staff were all so helpful particularly Kerrie who was knowledgable and really cared about her work. She helped the Best Man so much and sorted our shareholder breakfasts so it was easy.

Great Night in Livi
Pros:

Had a great time staying the night before my wedding. The staff were helpful and friendly. Had a good night in the bar. The breakfast was great and set me up for my big day. The woman working reception gave me a small gift as I was leaving to get married.

M8 is really noisy throughout the night
Pros:

No AC in rooms, and you have to keep the window open for air. M8 motorway traffic continues all night, and you won't be able to sleep well in this hotel.

Pretty much was what you expect from a premier inn
Pros:

One of the better Premier Inn I've stayed at! Simple and easy check in/out. They attached beefeater was again one of the better ones we've used. A few hidded cobwebs but no complaints over cleaning standard. Would definitely use again.
