Staff could try and be more attentive to customers
Pros:

Not very good, staff make you wait endlessly and when I approached check in one staff member left saying she was just checking something and never returned resulting in me just standing aimlessly. Room was ok but for the price could have been better, lots of stains, a hole in the wall with a cold draught so I had to have the heating on full. I didn’t even say a word at check in without being condescendingly asked had I parked at a Travelodge spot and not another place. On a Saturday night. At a business park.

Very good all round hotel
Pros:

Perfectly adequate for our needs. Family rooms were spacious and clean. Would have liked somewhere to store bags or drawers so lost a star for that. Food was surprisingly good in the restaurant both for breakfast and dinner. Plenty parking too. Friendly staff. Close enough to the city for attractions. Would recommend and would stay again.

An unexpectedly pleasant stay in an unexpectedly convenient spot.
Pros:

What a lovely surprise! Honestly, my expectations for this hotel were not high; I chose it because it was so much cheaper than the hotels in the city centre, and for its apparent proximity to the airport, but was braced for something rather mediocre in terms of atmosphere and service. Oddly, there is no dedicated transfer from the terminal, but in fact the buses shuttle back and forth to the nearby Ratho Station stop every few minutes. On arrival the welcome was warm and positive, and the room proved to be clean, peaceful and well appointed. All the essential amenities were present in terms of tea/coffee, TV, wifi etc., and there were none of those annoying LEDs that keep you awake at night. The water temperature and pressure in the bathroom were fine, even if the sink was on the small side for shaving. The bar/cafe area was perfectly functional (if not exactly cosy), with good beer and a breakfast that was more than adequate, even for a hungry vegan like me. The staff were friendly, efficient and helpful, even going the extra mile by looking after my bags for a few hours after checkout with no fuss or extra charge. Overall, this hotel offers unbelievable value for money and I would definitely stay there again. Incidentally, the frequency, rapidity and low cost of the public transport into the centre are quite astonishing, so getting in and out of town was a cinch. It all made for a great weekend, for which many thanks indeed.

Fantastic service
Pros:

I had a wonderful stay at Travelodge Edinburgh Airport. The room was exceptionally clean and spacious. The location is fantastic. I really couldn't find a fault with the accommodation. The best part however is the friendliness of the staff. They really could not be more helpful and efficient. I would like to mention John the manager who was particularly helpful. He really went above and beyond and helped me with my parking issues among other things.
All in all a great hotel and I will most definitely be returning.

Ratho Travelodge
Pros:

Travelodge at Ratho is very convenient when you are flying from Edinburgh airport.
The rooms are nice and comfortable but the showers are placed high on the wall and can't be adjusted. Not very convenient for a woman or if you dont want to wash your hair.

Great for the airport
Pros:

Look, this is a Travelodge and most of us are probably aware of what that means. However, in the advertised 'recently refurbished' rooms, I was not expecting a TV from the 90s with no way to connect your own device to it either via HDMI or casting. The rest of the room was fine but not providing the method for guests to watch their own content is maddening in 2025, hence the mark down.
