This is a business hotel. It's probably a 2 star place. But the bed is comfortable and the shower…read moreworks. It's not pretty- but it will serve you well. I've no complaints about it. The bar next door is nice- the people friendly the beer is good. The desk folks were helpful. So if you need a utilitarian place to spend a night- this is a safe bet. You won't get gorgeous scenery, but you'll get a night's sleep. Nice big car park.

I've recently had to stay in a hotel close to Edinburgh Airport. Fortunately all of the chain…read morehotels near the airport were fully booked, so I had to choose this Best Western hotel in about 35 GBP taxi distance from the airport, luckily facing the direction I had to travel the next morning. The hotel has a 24 hour reception, can be found quite easily and also has a restaurant / bar that unforunately is only open till 22:00 in the evening. However they offer reduced room service (sandwiches if I remember correctly) the whole night through. When I came to my room, I was pleasantly surprised. The bed was comfy, the WiFi was free, there was a (small) flat screen mounted at the wall, a cookie and a bottle of water waited for me. The lack of air conditioning was covered by the fact that I could open the window (in my case street facing) the whole night long without any further noise, the bath was modern and seemed to be renovated only recently. The normal problem you have with very loud hotels where you can hear everything from the surrounding rooms was also not given, staff was friendly, room was clean. Not my dream hotel but definatelly amongst the nicer places I've stayed in in the UK so far.

Then we went to ask why the table was taking so long and they told us they have not left their table yet . They kept ordering drinks and they would not ask them to leave and go through to the bar . Then the owner came through and accussed us of being rude to his staff which was a complete lie as the waitress confirmed . This guy was the rudest guy i have met . There was never any trouble like this before he took over . We did not get our table till 8.30 which totally ruined the whole night . This place has really went down hill with its service and manners so we will book elswhere next year for our christmas dinner .

We needed to stay overnight near Edinburgh Airport and everything there was either full or too…read moreexpensive. The Travelodge in Livingston provided the solution, although still more expensive than it should be. Only 20 minutes from the airport the rooms are basic, but clean and the staff is friendly.

A typical Travelodge hotel - in so far as the sense that the rooms are identical, and you could be…read morein any of the many hotels they run. It was neat, clean and quiet. A recent build, the place has not yet become run down. There is a restaurant attached as well (independent) - however, I didn't eat there, and thus cannot comment on it. The main attraction for me was the shops! Directly over from the hotel was the Livingston shopping centre, a vast mall in the style of Milton Kenyes, or American / Australia. Attached on the side was also a shopping estate containing the usual white-goods / computer sellers such as Currys etc. Given that if you book sufficiently in advance, you can secure a £19 pound double en-suite room (currently 28 days in advance, demand dependant), you could easily book a shopping weekend here, and not even have to worry about parking! (60-odd free places at the hotel, demand dependant, again). With a Marks and Sparks food shop, as well as their rejects clothing outlet in the mall, and loads of other brand names a short walk from the hotel, it'd make a decent Saturday shopping. You could perhaps then try the restaurant out attached to the hotel (it appeared to be trying to be passably trendy) and head on home on Sunday, refreshed, and broke from shopping! Christmas shopping sees the mall open until 9pm (November onwards), and there was a very pretty receptionist there when I stayed there! All good!

Yesterday afternoon after we arrived to Scotland, we were hungry. We searched a place to eat and…read morethis popped up. I can't say how thankful for Yelp helping us. This place is hands down the epitome of what you'd think Scotland is. Flowers, warm tones, wooden ceilings and wonderful food. We felt a bit underdressed but the staff didn't care. They were delightful and polite. Our food was just an added bonus to an already delightful experience.

Travelling around Edinburgh we needed a break and a bite to eat. So coming off the main road we…read morewent in search of a pub. Nothing hit our liking until we found this pub that looked inviting. Plenty of car parking space and, once inside, a very friendly welcome from behind the bar. Service couldn't be beaten. Drinks came promptly and, unusual for a pub, table service. Scampi and chips were ordered by us both and the quantity that arrived was so surprising for the price. OK, maybe it is because we are used to being fleeced dry in the south but we both noticed the quantity and pricing above Watford Gap is so significant. Great pub, friendly, fast service and really good food. Thanks guys.

Ordered the Smokey Soya Sloppy Joe Nachos which came with Violife Cheese and Vegan Mayo (more like sour cream, Yum!) For a starter and the Moving Mountains burger which also came with nachos! Both dishes were absolutely delicious and I had no complaints! Not much choice for Vegan Deserts but I didn't have room for any regardless! Would be nice to have Chips / fries that are vegan friendly but nachos was a pleasant and welcomed change from the norm! Would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone searching for an affordable yet delicious vegan meal in Linlithgow!
