Six people have been taken to hospital after a chlorine leak at a hotel in Corstorphine.

They are being assessed as a precaution, after emergency services were called to the Leonardo Hotel on Clerminston Road on Tuesday evening.

A further three people were assessed at the scene, but did not need further medical treatment.

The leak came from the swimming pool at the hotel.

Emergency services have now left the scene, and staff and guests have been allowed back in to the building.
