Toby Carvery - Edinburgh West

This review is on the restaurant and not the hotel, since we stayed locally elsewhere. The restaurant gave us a home-like atmosphere and food quality, with good hospitality from the staff. The food is not going to be “fancy” but that’s what makes it special - it gives you this home like sense. We actually loved it so much, we ate twice here and each time we were highly satisfied and full. We got the carvery roast. The beef and pork were excellent. In addition, the potatoes, Mac and cheese, veggies and cauliflower were done well and always warm. Although you could go up to refill on veggies and other items, we never did. We also got dessert both times and they were good. Highly recommend the sundae as it is for 2 people! Definitely worth visiting and they always had space, regardless of how busy it got. Thank you!

We arrived from a road trip and wanted to visit the city centre the next morning. It was great that we could park there and information about the bus connections was provided in the room information booklet. Journey to the center was quick and easy. At the evening of our arrival, we hadn't booked dinner, and although the restaurant was rather busy, the staff was very very helpful and friendly and went above and beyond to accommodate us and enabled us to get a table. The room was decent, and although next to the road still rather quiet. Only "negative" thing was that the room height in the bathroom was rather low, so my head was touching the shower head while taking a shower, but not a big problem (and I am rather tall) :). All in all highly recommended!

The quality of the food was amazing. The price was definitely fair. However, there wasn’t many options outside the english breakfast style. There should be the same amount of vegan protein as non-vegan protein. The coffee was too watered down, needs to be stronger. Lovely staff all around that made the experience perfect.
