“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.”
“2 weeks of parking for £170 is rather expensive still. No offer available - disappointing. We used the Plane parking. The regular bus shuttle is good and quick. The extension of the parking area is still very messy with large stones all over the place - being on the parking area but also on the road and on the pedestrian ways. This damaged our rolling suitcase as the stones are rather large to avoid.”
“Could not be easier. Very swift transit from parking spot to fast track security. Great price for the weekend given the proximity and speedy transfer.”
“I had a great experience! I literally left my drivers car window down the whole time I was away (2 nights) and everything was good! I also lost my ticket, and when I got to the gate to level they just found my booking and let me out. Good amount of parking spaces, and I managed to get parked on level 1.
Only 4/5 stars due to a few issues. It's not super well sign posted which is which, and the rate on the front of the car park for short term parking are confusing. Also, once you're in the car park, the way to go to get to fast track security or into the airport is not well sign posted - so I ended up walking out of a fire exit by accident. It's also not sign-posted well to point out where you need to go to actual get into the car park to get your car out. Also, no toilets nearby so you'd have to go back into the terminal to pee. Other than that, I did like it, found it safe and found it to be good. I would recommend. A lil pricey but my company paid so it's fine lol”
