Premier Inn Livingston (M8, Jct3)

Clean and pleasant room. Friendly staff. Loved the attached restaurant and bar. Would definitely return to this hotel without hesitation. Highly recommended

Despite what you may think, not all Premier Inn rooms are the same. I've stayed at a few Premier Inn sites, around the country, and the room I was given, at this hotel, was the amongst the best I've stayed in. Having never stayed at this hotel before, I'm not sure if this room was standard, for this site, or if I was given higher grade of room. It was spacious, had a nice large tv, and the bed was of the usually comfortable standard. I have got one slight niggle, and that's the pillows. I found a single to be too soft and doubling them up was too uncomfortable. In the end I had use a towel to find that happy median. Having got the niggle out the way, I have to praise this site for the heated towel rail in the bathroom, It's not a massive thing, but it was surprising. When I'm next need an overnight stay close to Edinburgh, I'll definitely be looking at this site again.

We needed a place to stay while we did an craft show event in Edinburgh, but there was a rugby international on the Sunday, so everywhere in the city was overpriced. Staying outside of Edinburgh and driving in was far more practical, and probably quicker than from many hotels we could have stayed at in the city. We've stayed at Premier Inns many times before and knew what kind of hotel to expect. We had a comfortable stay in a nice, clean room, with decent bed, shower, TV etc. It was quiet. There was ample parking. The staff were really helpful. Very good breakfast. Will stay there again, as it really worked well for us, and the cost didn't break the bank!

Yes hotel could benefit from a refurb but it's clean, tidy, comfortable and quiet. Staff welcoming and friendly including those in Beefeater Restaurant. Breakfast was delicious and freshly made to order. Well placed for Livingston and its fab shopping centre. Taxis around a tenner and can be booked at hotel where you're given priority.

If you want a quiet stay DO NOT stay here, we booked after landing early hours and we made the mistake booking here instead of airport one. We had the most unsettled broken noisy sleep ever. We told desk who had same complaints from other guests. Nothing was done was told to send an email. Heard nothing back was not worth the money! Bathroom was so dirty also.

I am a fan of Premier Inns and, as far as the room goes, this one was up to the usual high standard: good sized room and ensuite, tastefully decorated and furnished, very comfortable bed with a thick warm duvet, free wifi and a wonderful non-buffet breakfast. A few things were not so good: I had a ground floor room overlooking the car park and there were regular comings and goings by vehicles; the hotel is only 8 miles from Edinburgh Airport and aircraft noise was quite common; there is no grab rail in the shower which for an 80 year old man like me, makes getting in and out of the shower potentially hazardous.
