“Booking process was simple, booked and paid beforehand. Arrived found a space, parked up and went on our way to wait at the bus stop for the shuttle which came within minutes. On our return journey we waited around 10 minutes at the plane parking bus stop to take us back to the car. Bus driver was lovely and accommodating. On exiting, when I inserted my card it said I owed £120😬 I pressed the intercom and the guy took my registration and lifted the barrier for me - small inconvenience but otherwise a great service.”
“Absolute game changer, drive in right next to terminal, take your luggage and leave keys at reception and obtain your receipt.
On return pick up your keys and jump in your car, nothing simpler or easier, no lugging cases onto transfer coaches.
This is the only way I will ever park at airport again”
“Parking at airport really good but one problem I had was going across to carpark the pavements could have been lower at points instead of zizging all over”
“Edinburgh Airport Long Stay Car Park – Practical Review
• Booking: Easy and straightforward to book online.
• Finding It: Don’t follow the first “Long Stay” sign at the airport entrance – that’s for a private operator. Keep driving past the Hilton to reach the official long stay car park.
• Access: Walkable to the terminal, but no shuttle buses provided.
• Trolleys: £2 per trolley, and no free returns. We needed two each time – £8 total, which adds up. No clear return bays for trolleys either.
• Weather: No shelter on the walk – we got wet in the rain, which was difficult with a 12-month-old baby.
Summary: Easy to book and use, but lack of shuttle, paid trolleys, and exposure to weather could be improved – especially for families.”
“Great value for money for a short trip. Not very well signposted when arriving at Edinburgh airport and can be difficult to find the right car park. We had prepaid for the parking however when entered ticket when leaving screen displayed that we had a large outstanding balance, easily solved when contacted assistance and they rectified would just tell others to be wary of that and not to automatically pay amount shown without checking.”
