The lounge is spacious with large windows offering panoramic runway views and views of the Edinburgh Hills. It features multiple distinct zones, including a quiet area and a dedicated family zone with interactive games, accommodating up to 149-165 guests.
A self-serve hot and cold buffet is available, previously featuring Scottish and international dishes, which has transitioned to Halal-certified Central Asian, Mediterranean, and Middle Eastern meals following the rebranding. Recent traveler reports describe the food as limited, stodgy, or disappointing, with specific complaints about breakfast items like chicken sausage and turkey bacon, and a downgrade from branded condiments. Complimentary house wines, beers, gins, and spirits are served from a tended bar, though premium drinks incur an additional charge, and some recent reviews note a decrease in the quality of gin offerings.
The lounge provides complimentary Wi-Fi, numerous charging stations, and flight information screens. It includes a dedicated family/interactive zone with games. Shower facilities are not available.
While some older reports indicate good condition, more recent traveler feedback from late 2025 described the lounge as 'unclean' and 'quite dirty'.
The Turkish Airlines Lounge by Plaza Premium Group at Edinburgh Airport (EDI), previously known solely as the Plaza Premium Lounge, is an independent lounge situated airside on Level 2 near Gate 16, accessible by stairs or lift. The lounge accommodates up to 149-165 guests within a spacious, light-filled environment adorned with Scottish accents and offering panoramic runway views.
The interior features a variety of seating arrangements, including lounge chairs, sofas, and bar stools, spread across different zones such as a quiet area and a family-friendly interactive zone equipped with games. A self-serve buffet offers a selection of hot and cold dishes, which, following the rebranding, includes Halal-certified Central Asian, Mediterranean, and Middle Eastern cuisine. However, recent visitor feedback indicates a decline in food quality and variety, with specific mentions of disappointing breakfast items and a shift to generic condiments. A tended bar provides complimentary house alcoholic beverages, though premium options are extra, and the once-prominent Edinburgh Gin bar appears to have been downgraded to more generic spirits.
Amenities include complimentary Wi-Fi, charging stations, and flight information screens. Restrooms, a nursing room, and a prayer room are available within the lounge. Notably absent are shower facilities. Recent reports from late 2025 also highlighted issues with cleanliness. This lounge is best suited for travelers seeking a comfortable space with runway views and basic refreshments, particularly those with Priority Pass or Turkish Airlines status, who are willing to overlook recent inconsistencies in food and cleanliness.
