"Great stay in a gorgeous guest house close to city centre"

9.0

Great location with very easy walking to city centre or use the buses which run frequently from a bus stop 2 minutes walk away. Beautiful house and facilities. Jimmy and Fiona are excellent hosts. Great choice for breakfast and superb quality. Parking on site. Good WiFi. Very comfortable bed and room with en-suite.

"Best B&B in Edinburgh"

10.0

We loved our stay. The room was clean, quiet and had everything we needed, the beds were comfortable, the breakfast (which one orders from a menu in advance, saving a lot of waste) was great, and the owners were always friendly and helpful. I really enjoyed reading in the evening in the common drawing room, which has some fantastic furniture and highlights how well they restored the historic charm of the house. For public transit, they're also as good as it can possibly get; I don't think it really took us more than 20 minutes to get from our room to the city center, including walking and waiting for the next bus.

"The kindest staff ever! A safe and cosy place to stay. I will be back!"

10.0

The staff were so kind, always checking on us and making sure we had everything we need. It was a beautiful and pleasant stay. I hope to be back some day. The breakfast was super fresh and made to order! The room was spacious and very clean. I loved the little sitting area in our room, and loved the big sitting area in the house itself. I liked the decor of the rooms and house.

"Scottish Charm at its best!"

10.0

The staff was more than happy to assist us with getting cabs and even made sure we had some food in our fridge for our very early morning departure!!!!

It is in a little more residential area so shopping isn't close however, easy to get to and it was quiet!
