Not close to downtown Edinburgh, but a 30-40 min bus ride. Close to the airport. Nice stay and a great price. The restaurant was good too.

There's a bus stop outside with regular service to the centre. The rooms are big enough for a long weekend break with standard facilities. They offer food and drink which is very nice

Lovely quaint little hotel
We have stayed here a few times as it's a lovely quaint little hotel and very handy for Edinburgh Airport.
Food and ambience are great.
We've got a couple more stays already booked.

Good food; not a great place to stay
The Riccarton has good food but it’s not a great place to stay. The room was small and windows were right onto the outdoor seating & terrace. Since we were there on a Monday, there weren’t many people, but even so it was distracting. When I complained about the room being cold I was told nothing could be done. Imagine my shock when I raised the shade completely in the morning and discovered both windows at the top were open - and could not be closed. Finally, I asked for a taxi to be called for 6:30am and apparently the woman never did that because it never arrived. We had a flight to make and ended up calling an Uber.
