10/10 Exceptional

We stayed at this Guesthouse on 2 separate nights. We were able to check in early and staff were very polite and considerate. Beautiful old property just needs a little refresh.
Catherine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We only stayed one night in a small double room at this property, but the room was quite adequate and the bathroom was especially wonderful--great shower, good lighting, recently remodeled. It is also located in a nice neighborhood, with several good restaurants and coffee shops close-by, and a reasonable walk (about a mile) to the Royal Mile.
Gail, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Affordable, easy walk to city centre, great restaurants nearby.
chloe, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good: handy location, spacious room and spotlessly clean. Staff member I saw was very friendly and helpful Bad: slightly shabby decor in places. Also expensive but that seems to be the norm for Edinburgh - definitely pricier than previous visits to the city.

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely comfortable, spacious room. Lots of really great coffee spots nearby and some amazing food options without the tourist tax of the city centre. I will definitely stay again next time we're up.

Goede locatie

Locatie ligt net buiten het drukke centrum, 25 minuutjes lopen of met de bus (meerdere busverbindingen). Ideale locatie

This reresents excellent valuw. Rooms was very clean, all the facilities you would need. No need to pay double the price for something probably not as good. Will definitely book again next time I visit Edinburgh.

Martin, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A very convenient place close to the attractions. The place needs a bit of renovation but is located in a good area. Can use some comfortable mattresses as the current ones are not good and the bathroom fan was too loud.
