Holiday Inn Edinburgh

About the venue

Welcome to Holiday Inn Edinburgh - the city's largest hotel - midway between Edinburgh Airport & the City of Edinburgh and all of its attractions.

We are a 4 star venue boasting 14 flexible meeting rooms in our self-contained Academy conference centre, suitable for all types of meetings, events, party hire and residential conferences. With many options for layout, equipment and presentation, coupled with our great location, a familiar name, great transport connections and over 300 bedrooms all make Holiday Inn Edinburgh the ideal venue for your event. Onsite parking is complimentary. The Academy makes a great impression, with panoramic views over the Pentland Hills and Edinburgh Zoo, spacious break-out areas and all-day refreshments, ensures your delegates make the most of their meeting with time to network with colleagues. One of the key ingredients to holding a successful meeting is to have people who are fully energised and motivated. With our new "Ingredients for Success" selection of conference menus, using freshly prepared ingredients, we can provide you with a choice of tantalising fuel for the brain. We’ll support your event from the moment you get in touch through to a successful finale, taking the time to get the details right so you get your meeting, your way. Holiday Inn Edinburgh is just next door to Edinburgh Zoo, home of the Giant Pandas. See first hand the penguin parade, monkeys, rhinos, big cats and the only Giant Pandas in the UK. There is the Budongo trail - a state of the art research facility, allowing insights into the world of chimpanzees. Feel free to check out live footage of the animals via Edinburgh Zoo’s Web cam. Our location makes us equally appealing to both leisure and business guests. We are close to the BT Murrayfield Stadium, home of Scottish Rugby, as well as the Edinburgh Corn Exchange, for budding gig goers, Edinburgh Park and Haymarket Railway Station. The hotel has 303 bedrooms including Executive and Family rooms. We offer an a la carte menu in our main restaurant, Traders, as well as a relaxed lounge menu served alongside Starbucks coffee in our café bar. We offer outstanding value for families too with our Kids Stay & Eat Free* policy! You can work off the calories in our Health and Fitness Club, ‘Spirit’. Enjoy the fully equipped gymnasium, swimming pool, sauna and spa and treat yourself to some pampering beauty treatments.
