Nici and Robin are gracious hosts that go out of their way to make your stay one that you will always remind you of your wonderful stay. The breakfasts were superb and our room was very comfortable and any thing we could need was readily available. Spotless! The Links across the way offered afternoon fun. We gained insight and ideas... More

Robin and Nici were wonderful hosts and made our stay in Edinburgh very comfortable. The breakfast was delicious and filling, with a new special every day. Robin had some great stories for us while we enjoyed our breakfast. We were greeted on arrival with tea and baked goods. My Mom and I were impressed with how spotless the room was.... More

We knew right away that we had made the right choice when our query about room availability was answered promptly and included details sorely needed re: how to get to Elmview from the Edinburgh airport. By the way we choose the local bus which was waiting at arrivals as described by Nici and Robin and involved such a short neighborhood... More

Robin and Nikki were exceptional hosts in a perfect location near enough to walk through the beautiful park to Edinburgh city centre. The breakfasts were amazing and Nikki's daily specials and her porridge were out of this world!!! More

Wonderful hospitality. The hosts are delightful and make everyone feel comfortable at the common breakfast table. Helpful about parking and walking or driving routes. Comfy, bright rooms. Nice touches of tea, water, sherry, biscuits. Really everything is just lovely. More

This will be the 2nd time my husband and I have stayed at Elmview and it was just as wonderful the 2nd time round. You couldn't do better or have better hosts than Robin and Nici. On our arrival we were warmly greeted by Nici like old friends. She took us to our room and within minutes brought us a... More

The owners were very helpful and greeted us with a decanter of sherry and fresh flowers for our room. The location was perfect - an easy walk to most of the tourist sites in Edinburgh, and across the street from at park with a par 3 free play golf course (clubs available). The accommodations were comfortable and clean. The breakfasts... More

We started our Scotland holiday with a five night stay at the delightful Elmview B&B. Beginning with the initial e-mail correspondence to my preliminary inquiry, our experience at the Elmview could not have been more cordial. Our stay began with a warm welcome from Robin; in our room we were greeted by a decanter of Sherry and snacks, and mornings... More

We have just come back after spending 3 nights in this spectacular accommodation. We really cannot think of anything at all to pick up on, the reviews were not lying at all! We arrived early in the morning and our room wasn't ready - not to worry, we got UPGRADED to a 1-bedroom basement flat with it's own garden, fully... More

An absolute gem of a B&B; first of all the open space of one of Edinburgh's biggest parks directly outside Elmview sets the tone of a relaxed environment, and then the delight of meeting Robin and Nici. All the knowledge and information you could possibly want about the city and surrounding areas, easy scenic walking distance into the centre. Large... More
