Wonderful experience all around, felt like home with an upscale wraparound care and comfort. Home made breakfast on demand, utmost cleanliness and genuine care for guests. We stayed 5 nights and look forward to returning again. Best city views!

The room was clean and beautiful however I throught it was divided since it mentioned a separate seating area. It wasn't. The bed and the Sofabed are in the same room. I was hoping for more privacy and have one bed separated. This is a self check-in guesthouse however I was surprised to see that someone was there to assist briefly till 5:00 pm. The property is beautiful and well kept. The common kitchen, dining area were great.

The Craigmyle was perfectly located in a beautiful, quiet neighbourhood filled with incredible homes. Plus - a castle, right behind it! What's not to love about that?
The entire place was spotless and so, so comfortably furnished - both public spaces (special shout-out to the sunny wrap-around breakfast room!) and suites made for settling in and relaxing. No TV was an absolute bonus!
We used the kitchen facilities - very handy and also spotlessly clean. Parking was on-street and easy to find.
We "splurged" a whole $10 on breakfast and were so glad we did. Perfect end to our too-short stay.

Beautiful room and I loved having my own bathroom. The common areas were also very nice and well-decorated. I loved the complimentary coffee every morning and it was some of the best coffee ever. The room was a bit too warm, but they had a nice noise machine/fan which helped. It was a very quiet place which I appreciated. Loved it!

Our room was clean and nicely decorated. Small, so you can't expect to do much more than sleep in the room. Which makes the great room downstairs a good place to hang out when available. The breakfast ($10) was good. Staff was very helpful and pleasant. The stairs helped us get our daily steps in! And it's a short walk to the Government House trails, which was awesome.
