Edinburgh was a great experience. Maria, our host was extremely helpful and kind. The room was spotlessly clean and our towels were changed on a daily basis. Breakfast was very generous with eggs, tomatoes, bacon and sausages, together with toast and cereal. The guest house is in an ideal place, next to a bus stop that takes you right to... More

We walked the short mile to High St on found... More

We stayed at the Abcorn Guest House in Spetember 2011 - there was just 2 of us. The Guest House was easy to find and in a good location. There was an abundance of buses running into the City Centre and they run until quite late on the way back. Maria and family are really friendly and there's a real... More

With a bus stop outside the door it was easy to access the city. Naturally, that contributed to traffic noise but not offensive. We didn't realize there was no heat during the night but since the weather was mild it was not a problem, although we are early risers and had to bundle up before 8 a.m. The breakfast is... More
