The main reason for picking this hotel was the location as myself, husband and daughter were invited to a wedding at a nearby hotel. The location of the hotel is excellent, a 15-20 minute walk to the Royal Mile. The room we had was a triple room at front of the hotel, on the ground floor. We did not expect... More

Excellent value for money and so near the centre of Edinburgh. Bus stops almost at the door. Private car park. Clean and welcoming. Good continental breakfast, plenty choice, eat as much as you like. Wi-fi if you want it, I didn't, I was on a short break. Would certainly use this hotel again.

I was in Edinburgh for a week with my sister and nephew in February. We booked this hotel on the last day before departing from Boston (USA) with the plan that we’ll change the hotel after a day or so. Guess what...we liked this hotel so much that we ended up staying there for a full week. The room we... More

I called this B&B about 20:30 on the day of arrival. We had been busy all day and hadn't booked anywhere. I spoke to a lady who was very persistant in taking the booking, I said I would get back to her as we were looking at other places. She went on to call me back twice to see if... More

this is a nice hotel to stay in Edinburgh. It has free parking , close to a bus stop that takes you to town, breakfast was decent, rooms are clean and comfy. A little old but has character. Staff were very friendly and helped us in getting around. If you have reasonable expectations you will enjoy your stay

Stayed two nights. Frederick on reception was very friendly and helpful but double room we had was dark and dingy. Bathroom door didn't shut so a lack of privacy.Had to ask for fresh towels. Place smells of fried food. Noisy guests coming and going so don't get a room on the ground floor. No bacon at breakfast, sausages very grissly.... More

What a terrible experience in such a beautiful city. I don't even know where to begin - the old and shabby rooms, the rigid staff, the greasy breakfast...The place is staffed with the most unfriendly staff I've ever met, we were treated like we were a bother the moment our cards were swiped. On the day we left, someone knocked... More
