It's a Wetherspoons, good prices, pretty hectic service. It is what it is for Wetherspoons. Sometimes, the staff look totally disinterested.

Rather incompetent management when kitchen runs out of fish on Fish Friday. Bar manager gave the excuse that there was a problem with the fryer but cooking staff words were, no some clown forgot to order enough fish. Strange they could still serve burgers and scampi. Poor show !

Wetherspoons is not to everyone's taste but we liked it. The room was clean, spacious and well decorated. The area is main road so quite noisy, traffic wise. Location is good, not far from city centre, plenty of buses. Staff were great.

We have stayed in many hotels in Edinburgh over the years. One prestigious city centre one was particularly disappointing, however our recent stay at The white lady in Castorphine has changed our opinion of a good value hotel within easy reach of city centre. It provided cleanliness, nice staff and overall value rather than the higher priced city centre hotels who command a higher price to the uneducated tourist. Great value, we will return.

When ordering food, remember that it's a lottery. Depending on the cook, you may get something reasonable or something very tasty. Please do not explain this with high traffic and low prices, because it is very unprofessional. Fortunately, the management service works well. It's a pity that employees who have a lot of responsibilities do not care about the cleanliness of, for example, tables. Maybe you need to hire more staff? It's similar with the kitchen. The grill is either cleaned too rarely or not thoroughly. Sometimes the burger cheese comes out completely "raw" and the burgers smell of dirty and burnt grill. Other times the burgers come out hot and well prepared. I would like to thank the kitchen staff who work hard, because only thanks to them I sometimes take the risk to visit this place again.

Bar and food are what we've come to expect from Spoonies. Quick, efficient service, tasty food. We stayed over, the room was to the front of the hotel, so it was a little noisy. Great location, handy for buses to town and airport. Has a carpark for those with a car.

The location is good for access to the airport, check in ok and reception was friendly. Beds and pillows comfy and shower hot. There is no lift , so if you're on the second floor that's 4 sets of stairs. The BIG negative was the noise of an outside exhaust fan ? from the kitchen ??ALL night and skylight windows that didn't close completely to even try and keep the noise out. Tip if you are going to stay here check the proximity to the exhaust fan unless you have great earplugs.

Food was worse I ever had,but it was packed and really busy cooks probally peed off. Room was OK,except we had 2 skylights but only 1 blind. And the toilet is so close to wall,if your not skinny you gonna have to sit at a slant. But it's a weatherspoons, it's a 3 star hotel and that's what you're getting. But the bed was comfy so no complaint there or on cleanliness or service. Bus stop outside to the center £2 single,from airport get the return £8 cheapest. Walking to center about 50 mins,some sights on way I.e curry field etc etc.

Wetherspoons has a tried and tested menu. You know what to expect in quality, price and service. Long may this continue.. The White Lady does not disappoint. I used the app for ordering and paying and the meals arrived promptly. Does have a somewhat small carpark behind. In a world where it is all too common for spices and recently more and more pepper is being added to food; it nice to find a couple of items that are not so cursed on its menu. They are hard to find! I had one item, butter pan fried chicken that had so much pepper in it that I had to return it. No mention of spice or pepper. It was exchanged without question.

Never thought a hotel with a pub at a main road so close to the airport could be a quiet haven, but it can!

There is parking available for guests. The inn has a fantastic restaurant where I had the amazing breakfast on both the day I stayed. The prices are quite affordable too. The restaurant manager doubles up as the person in charge of allocating the room. Thus ring the ball at the reception counter and wait for him to assist you. The rooms are really beautiful and the bed soft and there is sufficient mode to heat the room in the cold nights of Scotland. I had no complaints whatsoever and had one of the fascinating time here. Except that maybe I drank a bit too much due to the hospitality. lol. But hey who cares on a Holidyay

Worst restaurant experience ever. If you have food allergies, go home or somewhere else. Food allergy section of app is not working and the onsite big screen stops working, restarts and asks for PIN code. It only handles the Standard 14 allergens anyways, which isn’t helpful for me. Waitress is as unfriendly and unhelpful as one can be (trying the screen and apologizing rather than solving the customer’s problem) and besides that „I‘m not allowed to tell you what’s inside.“. So no food for me - I can only guess that even the cook doesn’t know what’s inside.

Met family members for food and drinks on New Year Eve before heading down to the centre for more drinks and to watch the fireworks over the castle. Food and drink were very reasonably priced and good sized portions. Family members stayed overnight. Their room was very spacious and was really good priced for 2 nights on New Years Eve and New Years Day. We would have stayed here also but unfortunately we needed 3 rooms and they only had 1 left at the time we were booking. Would definitely recommend this pub for drinks, meals and rooms. Bus stop to take you down to the city centre was right outside and the bus journey was only a 10min ride and only £2 per person. Good value for money. Good location for Edinburgh Zoo and City Centre.

I visited this bar on Saturday at 11 PM, as it was the closest open establishment to my hotel. Despite the crowded conditions, I managed to squeeze in and secure the last available seat at the bar. However, I was immediately met with a dismissive "done" from the bartender/manager (which was our sole interaction). Given the bar's 1 AM closing time and the presence of numerous locals with full pints, it was evident that the bar was not winding down. I was the only non-local, under 50, fair-skinned person present so yeah wouldn't recommend.
