Amazing bed and breakfast in a perfect location for us, for attending Fringe Festival, with bus stop directly outside and regularly buses.
We received a very friendly welcome and our room was a good size with very comfortable big beds, tv, tea and coffee facilities which were renewed each day, plenty of towels, and complimentary slippers with a lovely view overlooking a park. We hadn't ordered breakfast but on the last day we decided we would and left our order the night before. Nothing was too much trouble and we had a delicious cooked breakfast, and plenty of other additions.
We had a very enjoyable and comfortable stay, with lovely friendly and welcoming hosts.
We will definitely be back!
Thank you!

It was nice. Location is really nice and cosy. The room is alright, but is hard to air out. Walls are thin, but for sleeping there it's fine.

excellent stay..very good position for us. Spotlessly clean. We both thought the mattress was a bit firm but this is of course a matter of choice.
Would definitely stay again

Great place to stay for accessing near by attractions and the city centre. Great host who was very helpful and nice. Would definitely recommend it, we will be back. Only thing was the pillows weren’t the best but that’s a personal preference.

The stay in the guest house was very pleasant. The house is very clean and quiet. The breakfast can, however, be expanded. One type of cheese and no sausage at all is simply not enough.

Danny & Jasmine (proprietors) were amazingly kind and helpful. The breakfast they served was very good and they give you lots of choice from cereal to full english.
The only complaint, and it's minor, the bed is quite firm.
The 25 bus stops just across or a few houses down. Tesco is a few blocks away. Access to city centre is very easy from Mackenzie Guest House.

Loved the character of the building our room was very cute. Lovely breakfast, the only thing I would change would be the breakfast times starting at least an hour earlier. Otherwise we had a great stay would definitely stay again very clean and great value.

I initially booked 3 nights instead of 1, immediately called to change it but the online booking was final since I didn’t cancel the booking a month before I booked it. They refused to reduce the stay due to some unpublished “minimum night policy” and refused to cancel the booking to let me book a night elsewhere. Rather greedy and inflexible attitude, but I ended up just using the booking. Apart from that it was fine.

Convenient for transport to city centre by bus. Lots of places to eat nearby. Near the Royal Britannia. Rooms are cleaned everyday. There were enough toiletries that are topped up everyday. Beds are comfortable enough but pillows in our room was a bit thin, we had to take pillows in the single bed as we were given a room with a double and spare bed. Breakfast is from 8-9 am during weekdays and 9-10am on weekends. Reasonably priced. Overall a comfortable stay. We would stay here again if we are in Edinburgh.

Jasmine en Danny zijn altijd bereid om vragen te beantwoorden en je op weg te helpen.

This is a really cute guest house on a nice street. Easy to park, walking distance from the Royal Mile (if a bit of a long walk). Very nice staff.

In Leith, about 2 miles from Waverley station but only 50 yards from the bus stop. Stayed on top floor which would be difficult to access for those with reduced mobility. Floor was a little uneven. Had the shared bathroom to ourselves because the other room on the top floor was not taken.
Good breakfast, especially the black pudding.
Excellent value for the Edinburgh area.

Had a nice stay at this guest house recently. Stayed 3 nights and found it very comfortable. The room was large and clean but was a little dated, some decoration and upgrading would transform the room.
The hosts are lovely and friendly. Breakfast was very good indeed. The guest house is right on the bus route to and from town which is handy.
