Avoid this Hotel Unless Desperate This hotel might be okay if you're on an extremely tight budget and absolutely crave Indian food (the restaurant next door is apparently good). However, for most travelers, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere. Here's a breakdown of the issues: Pros: Convenient location to a good Indian restaurant Cons: Unhygienic: Broken doors with dents, sink that wouldn't drain (took a day to fix after reporting), stained towels (not replaced until requested again) Unprofessional Staff: Manager (David) was rude when complaints were made Poor Service: Basic necessities like toilet paper and working plugs were not readily available Overall: This place seems poorly maintained and the staff is inattentive to guest needs. If you have any other options, I would advise booking elsewhere. However, if you're truly strapped for cash and just need a place to crash (and happen to love Indian food), it might be a begrudging last resort.

High Quality for a Good Price
Oxgang Kitchen Bar and Rooms is a very tidy establishment. The staff were helpful and the rooms were of high standard. Sadly didn't get to sample the kitchen side of the operation as I was mentally exhausted after my travelling and just wanted to rest in my room. The ensuite bathroom was clean and constructed to a high standard, and the bed was very comfortable.

Staff friendly but room servicing average. Had to ask for clean towels and one bed was not made up on our arrival and rubbish bin had something left from last occupant which was unpleasant. Very loud doors when shutting.

Stunning room, quiet area, amazing food
We had such a beautiful room, with everything you could need for a couple of nights. The bed was so comfy and there was no expense spared in linen or curtains. The staff were so friendly and even let us check in 45 minutes early. The food was delicious and I'll definitely be making a return trip!

Great stay - Good value & convenience.
Stayed at the Oxgang Kitchen Bar & Rooms for 1 night earlier in the week. Great location with easy access to Edinburgh airport, without the Edinburgh prices. The restaurant was superb! Great food and service. Just be sure to get there before 8:00 PM, as the kitchen closes then. We highly recommend and would stay again if we are in the area. Great value and convenience.

Pub accomodation
The hotel and pub were clean and fine if it is in the area you want to visit, but there isn't much close by so driving out is necessary. The staff, and indeed the owners who were staying there while their home was being used by U.S. professional golfers during the open, were all very friendly and helpful. The pub was busy when we arrived as there was a wedding taking place and we were in the middle of the guests in the pub. We had two rooms, ours was on the front overlooking the road and was fine, but our son and daughter in law had a room so small there was not even a wardrobe or drawers to store clothes in. The food served was very good and there was a good choice.

Convenient location to Kelpies and Falkirk Wheel.
Room was large but very hot on the first night. A fan was obtained but staff didn’t offer to help open window. We finally managed to open the window and we were much more comfortable on the second night. Bathroom was lovely but the carpet was dirty and stained.

Disappointing Stay
Stayed at the Oxgang for 2 nights, booked 2 rooms for a colleague and I. Room had only two single sockets with no table or chair to charge my phone or to be able to boil the kettle or work on. Kettle had to be boiled on the floor. Bed had no headboard because light switches were in this position and the pillows were poor. There was an electrical extension plugged in to the socket behind the bed to allow the bedside lights to be plugged in, the frightening thing about this was the electrical PAT test was dated Oct 2012 (photos can be supplied). The shower was poor. The room décor was nice and the food and service in the restaurant was very good. I returned from work on the second evening to find towels on the floor outside my room door, on opening the door the room had not been made up and the consumables, coffee, milk, toilet rolls not replenished, I checked with my colleague and his room was the same. This is very disappointing as we paid £340 for the 2 nights. I will be emailing the hotel direct to air my concerns.

Overnight Stay
The bar and restaurant area was pleasant, trendy rather than the most comfortable, as was the outside terrace. Check in was at the bar where the impression was that you were an unwelcome impediment to service. The room itself was small but ok, although the bathroom seemed to have a lot of dead space. The mattress was not the most comfortable and a single very thin pillow was poor, I used a towel as extra. The room was a little grubby and drawers contained rubbish left by previous guests, including cigarette packs and butts, in a non smoking room. Breakfast on Sat was announced as being from 9:30, fairly late if you are travelling onward or out for the day. I gave up with no sign of anybody at 9:50 and left key in the room.

Pub with rooms
Very friendly staff members. Not on duty yet person showed me the way to check in at the bar and carried my case in. Room was fine for one and comfortable with fresh decor. No room for bedside table to put a cup. Kettle had to boiled on the floor but ok. Disconcerting on the first floor in the morning to find a guy outside window while I was still in bed and blind was half down and widow open. He was washing the windows from a small roof in front of windows. Had dinner and service was fast and food tasty.

Basic but comfortable
Large room, with comfortable double bed. Walk in shower. The food was good and the staff were friendly and helpful. There is no lift so if you can't climb stairs ask for a room on the ground floor and the rooms at the back of the hotel have little noise. If I have one complaint there was no mirror where you plugged the hairdryer. For price we paid it was excellent value, I would go back.

Prisvärt nära Edinburghs flygplats
Familjedrivet litet hotell med tillhörande pub/restaurang. Rent och fint men med smala "dubbelsängar". Tyvärr serverar de inte frukost alls. Puben har bra "pubmat" med ambitioner och schyssta råvaror. Mycket glad och trevlig personal.
