Aspire Lounge

It's OK.....not great. Nicer than sitting in the main departures area but not by much. Service is mixed....some very nice, some can't be bothered. Needed to scan 3 things at the desk to get in this morning!

This is a good place to go before your flight. The breakfasts are sensational and the space is not too bad. Near the gates typically used to fly to the States I have found this very convenient plus the staff are just great.

Fabulous lounge. Great range of drinks both alcoholic and non alcoholic. Staff are always lovely and friendly. Enjoy using the lounge before even short haul flights. Shame the price has increased to almost same as premium lounges however still prefer use of Aspire.

A stress free way to start your journey. Very friendly welcome with a most informative introduction to the service available. A wide and varied choice of food, in our case breakfast. A good choice of refreshments available with helpful staff to advise. All in all a very pleasant experience. Will certainly use Aspire again if our flight times admit.

We always use this lounge when travelling from Edinburgh. It's great value for money. the food is great and if like us you like a couple of drinks before flying it's well worth it. It's a quiet comfortable space to chill before the flight

Visited in May 2017. Not our first time, but thought the service wasn't as good as our first experience. Staff are helpful, but the change over from breakfast to lunch menu was taking place. Nothing really appealing from the lunch menu so we just a salad and some cold meat.

Over all it is value for money. But, the staff are constantly trying to reserve sections for larger groups. This causes a lot of customers to either move to other seats or have no seats at all.

The worst lounge I have experienced in Business Class so far. Going to Edinburgh on business class very often, I am a regular. No salad bar, only some pasta pie and a soup, a poor selection of cakes (1 sort of cake and sometimes muffins), no journals (besides advertisement publications) and only one newspaper per editor, already very filthy by the intensity of use. Focus seems to be on free drinks, except champagne which has to be bought.
The atmosphere is quite sober and sometimes little relaxing. In particular, large groups may shout around into the badly soundproofed room.
The cleanliness is very poor. If you are lucky enough to get hold of a booth with a private TV, the remote control is far from hygienic. Tables are often left with crumbs after cleaning. The buffet is often messy and not clean to standards.
Worst of all are the toilets. As the lounge has none of their own, you have to leave it by a side door and go to the overcrowded public toilets nearby. These are regularly very wet and besmirched during the day. Then you have to return via the main entrance of the lounge.
For Edinburgh, I would recommend the British Airways lounge which is however exclusive to their travellers.

Relaxing place to sit before flight. Good selection of food and drink. Very friendly staff.

Great place, quiet and relaxing. Food and drinks are excellent.

Every one very helpful and cheerful plenty food and drinks well worth the money I come here now every time I travel.

Great service great variety of food and drinks would use again
