Want to avoid the hustle and bustle of Edinburg? Stay just a bit outside to the south east as we did. The staff is quite friendly and the accommodations are clean and comfortable, while very humble and quaint. Extremely small town charm is evident everywhere.

We arrived just after 4 PM and there was no parking whatsoever, but the landlady actually moved her car for us so we could park which was very thoughtful and appreciative. The room was small with a comfy bed. The breakfast in the morning was delicious, a proper Scottish breakfast!

This property should never be advertised as a 4star. There was nothing worthy of that kind of rating. Did Expedia personally vet this property?

Stopover on way home from holiday at Linton hotel was really good. Staff great from the very start, the lady behind bar moved her car so we could park outside hotel with our luggage. Room over looking front of hotel really nice, quiet even though main thoroughfare out front, comfortable bed, en suite modern, decor in room good. Breakfast tasty. Would certainly stay again.

We arrived at the hotel limited on road parking.we checked in an paid for our room we where given directions to the room which was on the third floor with the smallest bathroom I have ever seen the light in the bathroom kept switching it’s self of and flickering as well ,the bed just fitted into the alcove with maybe a foot either side making it difficult to get in and out off. There was no headboard and view was over looking the road and railway line .we had to open the window as it was warm so it was a little noisy when the trains went by We went out early the next day came back at around 6pm and the room had not been serviced and nothing was replenished so no coffee or toiletries.the food on our first evening was ok but breakfast was very limited four cereals toast or a Scottish breakfast which had no sausage it was not very tasty and pretty unappealing we didn’t bother going down the next morning and had a lay in until the room next door woke us,breakfast was only served 7.30/8.30am .We had just done a road trip staying in 5 properties over 10 days and this Hotel was the biggest disappointment and the most expensive.

Great Hotel
We really enjoyed our night in the Linton Hotel, the staff and locals were very friendly and made us very welcome. The food was excellent. The bar was nice and well stocked. The room was OK, a bit tired but fine for us. It was around 40 minutes from Edinburgh Airport. Will stay there again, the village looked very interesting.

Traditional Pub
The member of staff in the bar on arrival was lovely. Nice little pub .Good breakfast. Dinner menu looked good. Sadly we didn’t sleep well as we were just opposite the train line and it was windy, the bedroom windows rattled and also kept us awake. My husband got up in the middle of the night and put cardboard in the gaps to help.

Great Find and Location!
We loved this hotel!!! My mother and I took a long overdue vacation to Scotland and this hotel came up as being close to Edinburgh. It is on a bus line (the X7) to downtown Edinburgh and the stop is literally across the street from the hotel! Convenient if you have luggage. The bus ride is about 40 minutes to Edinburgh so easy if you want to head there. I’d recommend exploring the East Linton area though. It’s a beautiful area with walking paths and restaurants. The hotel has a pub and restaurant attached. We had breakfast and it was incredible!!! I wished we also had dinner. The menu looked great. The room was perfect for us with a gorgeous view of the church behind the hotel. Everything was well provided and we thoroughly enjoyed it! The toilet had a shredder built into it and we weren’t used to that. I did notice the sink backsplash needed a quick wipe. That was literally the only thing that needed doing. If you are a light sleeper, know the church bells chime on the hour until 11pm. We loved it—that just added to our magical stay!!
