Guest Reviews

• Marion (9/5): Ein wundervolles Haus genau zwischen Trubel (Princes Street) und Ruhe (Dean Village). - Die Lage der Chester Street 22 ist genial - genau zwischen dem Trubel (Altstadt - Princes Street - Edinburgh Castle) und der Ruheoase (Dean Village). Das Haus hat Charme. Fein war auch die Mitbenutzung eines Wohnzimmers. Dort saßen immer wieder andere Reisende, mit denen man ins Gespräch kommen konnte.
• Sandy (8/5): - The quiet location yet close to public transport and quick run into the city either by tram or bus Heavier curtains or blinds to block out the bright street lights at night.
• Kate (9/5): A great location and a clean and comfortable stay . - Absolutely spotless , good tea and coffee tray ,nice room , cotton sheets , friendly and helpful host . Location was good for central Edinburgh , site seeing and shops and close to tram and railway station . Excellent recommend for breakfast locally . Would have preferred bigger bath towels …. And prefer white . And two hand towels instead of one. Also would be helpful to have shower gel pump in the shower area . Being a shower over the bath it would also be useful to have a grip rail to help you get up into the bath and out .
• Mathieu ou Marilyn (8/5): Étape agréable à Édimbourg - C’est un très bel hébergement dans un quartier magnifique et très calme. L’accueil par le propriétaire était sympathique et très professionnel. Enfin les équipements étaient très satisfaisants et la salle de bains très grande. Le tarif (178 €/ nuit) était assez élevé par rapport à la concurrence dans ce niveau de gamme.
• Anne Sophie (6/5): Chambre correcte et bien placée qui mériterait rafraîchissement - L’accueil de l’hôte, la propreté du logement, le côté spacieux de la chambre La baignoire avec le pommeau de douche qui fuyait, le délabrement de la colonne de douche, le confort du matelas qui laissait à désirer et la taille du lit (petite).
• Laurence (7/5): - Teuchters pub a few streets away serves really nice and fresh scottish pub food. In the house, Lukasz was really helpful and took the time to give us explanations on the surroundings and how to get around. Nice reading room upstairs especially well lit with natural light in the evening. Nice in general to have the opportunity to stay in a victorian house Very expensive during the Fringe. 239 GBP for 1 night is largely overpriced for the services provided. The.bathroom is large and well lit, but it is nothing close to luxurious as described in some of the landlord's comments (mainly dated and you will be sharing the space with hairy long-legged inhabitants, I don't mind them but some customers do..) . It also is not ensuite and this is not explained in the description. You need to cross the reception area to get there. The accommodation has the charm of an old house, nothing more . There is a storage space in the room which is really wobbly. The furniture is dated in general, and has no charm (at least in the bedroom). Strange choice and mix of decoration too. . A job from a local interior designer would help raise the bar and justify the rate
• Brigitte (9/5): -
• Colin (9/5): Grand old style luxury in a fantastic location. - We had a huge family room for the 4 of us, located in the west end of the New Town, within walking distance of the city centre. The room was a grand reception room of a traditional Georgian house. The bathroom for our room was lovely, but not ensuite so we had to go through the entrance hall, but in doing so we did not encounter others so there was no real inconvenience. The location was so central that we had to pay extra for parking for the 2 nights of our stay.
• Ana Rita (10/5): Maravilhoso!!! - Gostei de absolutamente tudo. Lukas, quem nos recebeu, foi excelente! Educadíssimo, disponível! Gostei de tudo!
• Dalma (10/5): -
• Shehrina (1/5): Great if you love giant spiders - The area was nice and quiet. I didn't mind the room much either. It was decent, a little shabby and musty but it's an old house so I won't complain about that. The bathroom was modern which was a plus. I usually try never to leave a negative review, but I need to share our experience. When we were getting ready to go to bed and turned over the covers, there was a huge spider there. It's not like something you would see inside a house, rather in a terrarium. I reached out to the staff and he came in after a while and he was upset that we were afraid and wanted it removed from our room. He kept saying we don't kill these things, it's a 200 year old house and it's expected that there would be spiders. I asked him to remove it from our room and turn the bed covers over to make sure there weren't any more but he was very snarky about it and kept saying there will be spiders, it's a 200 year old house. He did say he would return our money if we wanted to leave but it was 10 at night, during the Fringe festival and I was traveling alone with my two children. So that really wasn't an option. My daughter was traumatized by the whole experience. My whole point is, ok fine I accept it's a 200 year old house and is inhabited by giant spiders (about 2") but when your guests are afraid, the least you can do is turn the covers over the other beds and check the room to see if there are any more instead of acting nasty about it. Or mention that in your listing. I'm sure there are people out there who don't care if they have to share their living space with giant spiders, but there are also people with phobias. It was a terrible experience for us. We were only there to sleep (arrived at 9:30 pm and left at 6 am), so can't say anything else in terms of service.
• RACHAEL (8/5): Great stay in the middle of town - Great room and bathroom, comfortable and quiet. Lukas is an absolute gem of a host!
• Diana (8/5): - Location and room with entrance suite. Great host and very helpful recommendations Great pubs around the corner -No washcloths -no ice available on request - no en suite personal refrigerator - suggest there would be a small table to hold the coffee station equipment, had to plug in the tea kettle on the floor
• Thomas (8/5): -
• severine (9/5): - Personnel très accueillant et sympa! La maison est incroyable et la literie très confortable !!
• MICHELA (8/5): Magica Edimburgo - Posizione ottima rispetto al centro città in un bellissimo quartiere. Stanza molto grande, al piano interrato ma comunque molto luminosa. Lukas è stato molto gentile e ci ha dato molti consigli utili per il nostro soggiorno. Mancanza di porta valigie
• María (9/5): -
• olivier (9/5): Très bon accueil - Très bonne situation et accueil au top Peut être faudrait il rajouter des rideaux occultant mais c’est un détail
• Celia (9/5): - La habitación por dentro es espectacular Estaría bien que hubiera desayuno incluido
• Martin (10/5): -
• Gabriela (9/5): Gemütlich und stylish - Design des Zimmers Gemütlich Gute Betten Grosses und schönes Badezimmer, mit Badewanne und Dusche Freundliche Betreuung Cafés und Restaurants in nächster Nähe Das schöne Badezimmer war leider ausserhalb unseres Zimmers, wir mussten durch öffentlichen Bereich gehen, um zum Bad zu gelangen
• Massimo (7/5): Molto accogliente - Tranquillità, intimità Il bagno non in camera
• S (7/5): -
• Guadalupe (9/5): -
• Barbara (9/5): Beautiful property worth staying. - The location is very good. Excellent area, lots of Caffè and restaurants. I didn't like my bed. The bed was broken, couldn't sleep the first night. The pillows are too big.
• Adrian Sainz (10/5): -
• Dalma (9/5): -
• Mike (8/5): Edimburgo in una antica abitazione - Abitazione storica, in un quartiere di prestigio. Gestore simpatico e cordiale che ci ha spiegato le peculiarità della casa e del quartiere e ci ha aiutato a trovare un posto auto dal costo molto interessante. Difficoltà ad aprire la finestra della camera.
• peter (7/5): - Dålig luft i rummet det låg i ett källarplan
• Catherine (10/5): -
• Dr. Beate (8/5): -
• Daniela (8/5): Nur zu empfehlen. - Lage sehr gut zur Bushaltestelle ca. 200 Meter, Sehenswürdigkeiten schnell erreichbar. Ruhig und angenehm.
• Thomas (10/5): Wir sind sehr zufrieden dass wir dieses Haus gewählt haben. - Das Gäste Haus befindet sich sehr gute Lage in Edinburgh nur 3 -4 Minuten von Straßen Bahn Haltestelle ( gute Verbindung zum Flughafen und Yacht ,,Britannia,,) und nur 5-6 Minuten zu Fuß zum Zentrum .In diesem Haus kann man spüren richtige englische Atmosphäre. Und als Überraschung kann man auch Zeit verbringen in sehr schönem Salon .Frühstück kann man nicht in diesem Haus essen aber 4 Minuten zu Fuß Richtung Zentrum gibt es ein paar Restauranten wo kann man frühstücken.
• Carolina (9/5): Estupendamente - Muy amable Fue genial, quizá el tema de las persianas , la claridad entra, pero pasa en todos lados.
• Anna (9/5): - Casa deliziosa! Camera spaziosa, ben arredata e pulita. Host super gentile Posizione ottima, zona molto bella della città a pochi minuti dal centro (noi usavamo autobus perché abbiamo bimbo di 4 anni) ma si arriva anche a piedi Unico appunto, i teli doccia minuscoli
• Lenka (10/5): -
• ´Wolfgang (8/5): Ein sehr schönes Quartier - typisch Schottisch mit einem hervorragendem Gastgeber! - Besonders hervorzuheben ist die Aufmerksamkeit und der Service von Lukas! Er ist immer um seine Gäte bemüht und versucht alle Wünsche zu erfüllen - ein TOP Mitarbeiter! Das Zimmer war sehr groß und der kleine Vorgarten vor dem Zimmer war wunderschön und wir haben dort sehr viel Zeit verbracht! Leider konnte man die Fenster in unserem Zimmer nicht öffnen!
• Örsan (9/5): -
• Neeta (10/5): -
• CaminoADiez (9/5): -
• Lilli Maria (7/5): Gute Lage, für kurze Aufenthalte in Ordnung - Gute Lage, Zentrum fußläufig erreichbar. Preis-Leistung für die Jahreszeit in Ordnung. Unkomplizierter, rascher Check-in. Zimmerreinigung täglich. Haben leider ein Souterrain-Zimmer bekommen (war bei Buchung nicht ersichtlich), aufgrund dessen auch modriger Geruch (feuchtes Mauereck), Handtücher werden nicht trocken. Fenster kann nur einen kleinen Spalt geöffnet werden. Älterer Teppichboden erhöht in Anbetracht der Feuchtigkeit nicht den Wohlfühlfaktor. Hellhörig (Telefongespräche können mitgehört werden). Wenig Ablagefläche, kein Tisch. Eine zweite Sitzmöglichkeit im Zimmer wäre praktisch gewesen.
• Anastasia (10/5): A spacious, beautiful property in a prime location! We would recommend to anyone for their visit to Edinburgh. - We stayed in the family room which was beautiful and very spacious, perfect for a family of 4 — everything in the property was clean and well kept. The host was also kind and very helpful which made our stay comfortable and easy. I would recommend staying at 22 Chester Street to anyone who is looking for an authentic experience of Edinburgh in a prime location, for a very reasonable price. We will happily stay here again on our next visit!
• magda (7/5): -
• jean francois (8/5): - Sa localisation, son confort et propreté
• Susan (8/5): - Location, friendly, helpful staff Separate bathroom
• Christiane (10/5): -
• Magnus (9/5): Trivsamt prisvärt boende med gångavstånd till allt centralt. - Trivsamma rum och ett bra gemensamt vardagsrum. Saknade en tydlig skylt.
• Christiane (10/5): -
• paul (9/5): Un lieu parfait pour découvrir Edinburgh - Parfait pour un séjour au calme tout en étant à proximité du centre historique. Cadre exceptionnel, très "British". Un véritable dépaysement.
• Alexander (9/5): - Die zentrale Lage ist super und auch das Gebäude hat einen schönen Charme. Parken in der Nähe ist recht teuer. Dafür kann der Betreiber der Unterkunft aber nichts.
• miriam (7/5): Confortevole soluzione in un bellissimo quartiere residenziale - La posizione in cui si trova la struttura e’ perfetta, vicina al centro e a tutte le attrattive ma in quartiere tranquillo e residenziale. Stanza molto ampia, luminosa , silenziosa con bella vista su un giardino curato. Lukas, il ragazzo che gestisce la struttura, e’ stato cordiale e disponibile. Metterei qualcosa per oscurare meglio la finestra durante la notte.
• Fabien (9/5): Superbe - La maison est superbe, l'emplacement est très bien vous êtes à 5mm à pied du tram. notre chambre était très bien décorée spacieuse très propre ainsi que la salle de bains, l'hôte est charmant et nous a permis de laisser nos sacs pendant la journée
• Mark (9/5): -
• Valérie (10/5): Super je recommande - Confortable et tranquille et près du centre à pieds ou du tram
• Akio (9/5): エジンバラを満喫できました - 3人で泊まるには十分な広さ 閑静な住宅街 Haymarket駅に近いので列車での移動に便利 聖マリア大聖堂が隣のブロック すぐ近くにカフェ、スーパーがない
• françoise (10/5): nous recommandons fortement. Un super rapport qualité/prix - L'emplacement, de quoi se restaurer proche, beaucoup de choix. Près de la gare Haymarket pour bus aéroport et tous les autres accès. La chambre superbement aménagée, charmante et d'une propreté impeccable. Une literie au top. Un accueil de notre hôte très sympa, de bons conseils. Merciiiiii
• Janet (10/5): -
• Peter (5/5): Preis-Leistung: teuer, dafür zentrumsnah gelegen. - Wir wurden nicht von der Gastgeberin, persönlich empfangen, sondern von Lukas. Lukas war sehr höflich und auskunftsbereit. Die Unterkunft selber hat keine Parkplätze. In der Umgebung zu parkieren, ist eher schwierig und sehr teuer. Lukas konnte uns eine bezahlbare Einzelgarage in unmittelbarer Nähe vermitteln. In 5 Minuten ist man zu Fuss im Zentrum. Erst in der Unterkunft erfahren, dass das Zimmer ein nicht direkt zugängliches Bad hat. Mussten immer zuerst über einen Flur, um das Bad zu erreichen. Das Bad war jedoch sehr hübsch. Die Unterkunft lag im Sous-Sol, verfügte jedoch über Fenster. Das Fenster der Schlafraumes liess sich nicht öffnen, d.h. man konnte es nicht lüften. Die Unterkunft als solches ist muffelig und roch stark nach Küche. Man musste die Türe zum Schlafraum sofort schliessen, wenn man den Geruch nicht in den Kleidern haben wollte.
• Anne (5/5): - Good location Good communication regarding arrival reception. Good tea/coffee biscuits in room. Basement room needs upgrading/refresh. Poor quality bedding and pillows. Poor quality, uncomfortable bed. Carpeting needs replacing. Bathroom fixtures dated.
• IRENE (8/5): - Dormir en una vivienda típica de la ciudad El baño está fuera de la habitación
• Marta (7/5): -
• Sherry (8/5): We were pleased with our stay. - We were very happy with the location of the property. We didn't have any complaints.
• Henry (8/5): Overall a good place but without ensuite bath it was not worth the 186 pounds. - Host was helpful, room was capacious with extra beds. Apparently I did not read the fine print because our bathroom was down the hall. It was clean.
• Caillon (8/5): très bon séjour avec un hôte disponible et agréable - localisation très agréable, hote disponible et très sympathique
• Vanessa (9/5): The location was great and Lukas was very helpful! - The location was great and Lukas was very helpful! You are out of the way of the crowded tourist area but an easy and scenic walk to get there. Dean village was also very close.
• Roman (8/5): - The room is really spacious Bathroom accessible only through the hallway and the door kept closing and locking. Bit too noisy in the morning due to single pane windows - may be also cold in winter.
• Priya (10/5): -
• Max (10/5): - Très belle maison propre et décorée avec soin. Bien placé pour visiter la ville à pied de

• Edwin (8/5): -
• Paul (7/5): Make sure you get an Upstairs room - It’s a lovely Georgian house in Edinburgh’s New Town. It’s immaculately clean and in an ideal position for visiting the city. There’s definitely an Upstairs/ Downstairs feel to the property and we were definitely downstairs. The room was cold and underfurnished .
• Alicia (9/5): Nice experience - It has a good location, very close to one of the main street in Edinburgh, the room was very clean and comfortable. The bathroom is outside the bedroom but it is private and we didn´t have any problem.
• Anne (5/5): I would expect for the price, that a better bed would be provided.Also a complimentary breakfast - Location. Cleanliness Price. Bed not comfortable. Shower fixture not working properly.
• claudia ropero (1/5): No volvería - La ubicación, porque necesitábamos un alojamiento que estuviera cerca de una parada de autobús que nos llevara al aeropuerto a las 3 de la mañana, porque nuestros vuelos salía muy temprano. La persona que nos atendió, fue muy desagradable en el trato hacia nosotras. Tuvimos un problema con el agua de la ducha, y cuando fuimos a hablar con él nos trató exageradamente mal. Pero lo peor fue que no solucionó el problema y nos tuvimos que duchar con agua fría. Y como broche de oro, nos encontramos una araña y una babosa en el baño.
• Deborah (8/5): - Awesome location. Decent and clean rooms.

• Concepcion (10/5): A truly delightful stay in a charming and quiet West End guest room, with a perfect central location and an exceptionall - We had a wonderful stay at this charming guest room in Edinburgh. The room is located in a beautiful and tastefully decorated period building, full of character and typical British charm. The host was exceptionally friendly and welcoming, always helpful and attentive, which made us feel right at home. The location in the lovely West End is perfect – very central, yet peaceful and quiet. The city centre is within easy walking distance, and the tram stop to the airport is just a 5-minute walk away, making it very convenient for travel. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting Edinburgh – a perfect blend of comfort, location, and warm hospitality!
• Doug (10/5): -
• Guest (5/5): Hôtellerie très Chère pour les prestations - Architecture Pas de chauffage première nuit Salle de bain trop loin
• Guest (9/5): Characterful, quiet, perfectly located and a much appreciated friendly welcome - It was a pleasure to meet Lucas, who was so friendly and helpful. Thanks for the cookery books! The location is perfect and we were able to visit everthing we wanted on foot. Quiet and characterful. Very minor quibbles - two chairs would be nice for two people,- bedside lights hopeless for reading in bed - bathrobes mentioned in spec. never appeared (though we managed well enough)
• Sandra (8/5): It was a very nice stay. - The building has a 200-year history - the room was very beautiful. The host was very cordial and helpful. He gave us a city map and recommendations for what to do and where to grab a bite. The beds were not that comfortable but fine. The bathroom was outside the room, but very clean and we did not have to share it with strangers.
• Daniela (10/5): Alles wie beschrieben, sauber , ruhig und super Lage - Alles. Nichts
• Julia (5/5): Misleading information and photograph - The room was in the basement and looked nothing like the one advertised on the booking.com site I didn't want to be in a basement
• Lise (10/5): Great location, beautiful home, wonderful host! - The location, the ambiance, the space, the library/salon, the welcome from Lukas
• Amber (10/5): We had a wonderful stay. Lucas was a great host. - I loved the location and the fact the home is historic. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. No fans in the rooms.

• Jacqueline (9/5): Great location, easy to find - Excellent location, absolutely spotless. Nothing
• Sophia (9/5): -
• KAZUYUKI (10/5): -
• keith (8/5): - Spacious and location Bathroom seperate from the bedroom
• LI (5/5): - 服务人员的态度很好，有问必答东西坏了，叫要修也很快，我们临走前还请他帮我们叫了出租车。房间的地点不错，去哪里都比较方便，坐公交车也方便。但是房子的设施显得很陈旧，我们刚住一天。吊灯和卫生间的灯都坏了。叫工作人员帮我们修好了。洗脸盆和洗澡间下水也不流畅，被子毛巾的都显得很陈旧。 硬件有些陈旧。
• Leslie (8/5): Quiet & good location - Location & Lucas was very helpful The mattress was not very comfortable. We were exhausted from traveling over night so honestly could’ve fallen asleep anywhere. Had we stayed another night we would’ve really noticed it more
• Larissa (10/5): Delightful comfortable home away from home - Delightful well located property in the West End of Edinburgh close to Dean Village. Plenty of public transportation and restaurants to choose from.
• Guest (3/5): Unsatisfied - Bathroom not in room & I asked for that specifically because I have trouble walking. I asked your manager if we could move to one that did have across the way who had checked out and said no. I have to move the other people that are reserved & coming. Guess he didn’t want to accommodate. Don’t recommend it to others.
• René (9/5): - Stilen og beliggenheden Kunne ønske lidt køkkenfaciliteter. Eget toilet var ude på gangen
