Was a pleasure to stay
Lawrence, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Second time staying here, as I have family in Gilmerton. Great, convenient spot. Kind and friendly service. I've never attended breakfast so I cannot accommodate on that. The only downside is thin walls, so you can hear everything. On the flip side, both times I have stayed, it's never been fully booked. Would happily return!
Paul, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Room was okay. Dusty. Linen was clean. Bathroom was okay. Breakfast was terrible. Cold stale pastries. Coffee machine out of service. Area of town out of the way. Not a nice place.
Manjith, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

We didn't end up staying in the hotel due to it being unsafe and unhygienic.
Lee, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

All staff were perfect. They made us feel special. Continental breakfast was not enough. Our room was close to street we could hear the car's sounds and there was a noise from stairs constantly. Hotel could be considered close to the city centre. Bus station in front of the hotel.

Not so clean but friendy
David, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Dirty, slow service if any, we were served breakfast 45 minutes late and were given milk that was off. We stood up and left straight away. Don't choose this place... Paid 100 quid for a single room on top of the crappy conditions.

10/10 Exceptional

Good place to stay, easy access to the city.

Excellent and friendly welcome, room was checked over before giving us the keys, answered our questions (regarding public transport to Edinburgh). Good night’s sleep, comfortable and quiet. Good continental breakfast in the morning was good, with good service, option of coffees which where brought to the table. Would recommend this hotel, not large but good.

Great stay in Edinburgh! The host was super friendly, the room had everything we needed, and the connection to the city was good. Would definitely stay here again.

Great short stay stopover

Comfortable, close to shops and restaurants, away from centre and hence less busy. Staff were exceptionally helpful especially Romik.

The people who run the Abbey are lovely! Very nice service indeed. We had a good stay there. About 15 minutes drive from centre of Edinburgh, very convenient and easy to get to. Place a bit run down but still comfortable and clean.

was phenominal; safe, cozy, and courteous staff who just want to make sure you are the most comfortable. I will definitely be staying there next time.
Georgette, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The Abbey is in a great location… about 20 mins drive from Edinburgh. The service was very good and the proprietors were lovely and offered great service. Breakfast was excellent. While the accommodation is basic it was clean and we were very comfortable there. TV also had Netflix which was great. A good place to stay if you’re on a budget and want to be close enough to Edinburgh to enjoy it without the expense and crowds!

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is on a bus route straight into city and was definitely a great value for money option. It has a new owner who is working hard to make it a great destination. He was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good too - small buffet but fresh and tasty. I’d definitely stay again.
