About Corstorphine Lodge
Corstorphine Lodge is a Victorian building on St. John's Road in Edinburgh's north-west district, its period character kept intact alongside a walled garden that sets it apart from the area's newer accommodation. The 22 rooms are straightforward and unfussy, each with an en-suite bathroom, air conditioning, free WiFi and drinks available in the room.
Breakfast is served on site and there's a bar for evening drinks, while the garden offers a quiet spot to sit outside. There's no parking at the property, so it suits guests arriving by public transport, and the location near local transport links makes onward travel straightforward.
The surrounding area has plenty to fill spare time, with a golf course, entertainment, pubs, restaurants and watersports all within reach, plus space for walking nearby. It's a fitting base for those who want a characterful building over a modern chain, without expecting five-star polish.

What guests say
The room was clean and very spacious and was able to make a Tiktok dance out of it. Our room was near the street but we enjoyed the view while having coffee/tea. Free towels were provided. The staff were friendly and kind, special thanks to Adam, who have answered all my questions before arrival. Just a few minutes away from the bus stops to the airport and to the city. Haven't tried their breakfast - so no comment. Thanks a lot!

A little bit higher price for this quality. Location is just fine. The bus stop is just outside and you have plenty of lanes to the city. The bed is good. Didn't eat the breakfeast because it is allways overpriced in UK and the taste of Heinz beans are just the same everywhere.

Great location for the zoo. Rooms are huge and spotlessly clean but needs a bit of a update. Staff were very helpful. We would definitely recommend for a one night stay.

Very good location near bus stop and airport. Room was clean and comfortable but bed quilt was damaged (large hole) and bed sheet did not fit bed and so did not stay on during night.
