Staff was very welcoming. Sent us directions by text as we journeyed up to ensure that we didn't miss the turn into the property (which is not that easy to spot) - made us a pot of tea on arrival - and had whisky available as a nightcap in the drawing room for free. House itself is large and with eclectic collections of antiques on show. Situated in its own grounds and so a pretty quiet location.
Located in Livingston and only 22 km from Hopetoun House, The Nest, Livingston provides accommodation with quiet street views, free WiFi and free private parking.

Lovely spacious studio in a quiet and nice area. The place was very clean and comfortable. The allocated parking space was great. We had a great night's rest at the Nest and would love to come back!

We didn't actually do anything in Livingston, just used it as a place to stay while at another event in Edinburgh. What we did see while driving looked OK though. There was a couple of food places across the road from our hotel (Livingston Lodge) which were good.

The shopping centre is a 7 or 8 minute walk from Mercure Hotel. It is enormous.We looked round main shopping mall in the morning and the designer mall in the afternoon. Filled a whole day. Electric car chargers behind Asda but a little tricky to find the way in the car. We found them by walking then went back to get car to plug in. Sat Nav invaluable in Livingston.

Fantastic shopping centre and designer outlet as well as lots of retail parks. There are plenty of outdoor spaces and sports facilities as well as places of interest close by. Lots of options for dining in or takeaway. Easy to get around by car as long as you don't mind roundabouts!

we arrived and booked in straight away, staff pleasant, room was clean although a bit cool, so upped the heater. Left to visit the shopping area which we found very easy to get to, on return the room was nice and cosy. We had been for afternoon tea earlier so were not hungry , so later in the lounge we shared a pizza, served by a pleasant girl. Used the swimming pool the following morning, it was super, just the right start to the day.
First time staying at The Chain Runner, the restaurant and the food were excellent the staff are very welcoming, helpful and polite.
The room was excellent, it was spacious with natural lighting from the window there was also plenty of lights to use, the room had a large comfortable bed and the bathroom was also spacious.
The hotel is just a short walk from the shopping centre.
We would definitely stay again and we would recommend this hotel to family and friends.
We absolutely loved this hotel. Travelling with my son & our 2 dogs this suited our needs perfectly. The grounds of the hotel were more than adequate to walk the dogs round & the room sizes were fantastic. We were blessed with the weather so sat out in the garden & enjoyed food & drinks from the bar. Would absolutely stay again.
We liked the peaceful location which was central to everything we needed. There are many nice restaurants and good shopping in Livingston. Places to visit less than an hour away include the Kelpies which are quite stunning. The property is minutes from the train station and bus routes. Quiet and comfortable with good wifi.
The staff were welcoming, friendly and very helpful - especially on finding the location and providing numbers for local taxi services. The hotel is situated in a lovely quiet area close to wedding venues and the local train station. The breakfast was amazing and is definitely a must-have when staying there.
This hotel is proof that good staff make a difference. Accommodation was clean, warm, and comfortable. Difficult to single out individual staff, so I'll just mention three
Lisa, for her empathy and humanity.
Annie for being lovely and exemplary service.
Arleta for initiative and going the extra mile.
Equivalent to a luxury hotel, this will be my first preference for future stays in the area.
Breakfast was amazing. Beds really comfy, loved the little 'wee nip' as a treat from the host. Even had sky TV
The hotel was ideally placed for our purpose. It was clean and welcoming. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was excellent
Lovely clean house, had everything you would need. Like a home from home. Thank you for a great stay. We have family in Livingston so would definitely stay here again.
The room was very nice, clean quiet as requested and we'll equipped.
This hotel is opposite where my daughters stay so very convenient for me to stay when I visit .
Fabulous!
Really clean, tidy, well decorated. An ideal base in the Livingston area.
Emma (the lady we dealt with ) was extremely helpful.
Would love to stay again.
Beautiful hotel and staff were welcoming. Room was exactly as seen in pictures on Booking.com. Great place for nice pictures and not too far from Edinburgh city
I have stayed at the hotel several times for work and the service has always remained the same, excellent. The staff are a credit to the hotel and it's brand.
