This guest house is in a nice area and there are some places to eat close by. The photos on the website and on here do not do it justice. It is much nicer than how they look on the website. Breakfast was good too.

We chose the Lindsay Guest House as it was close to the venue we were attending on business. We arrived on Friday evening and were greeted by a jovial Keith, who spent some time explaining the bus routes and best places to eat. Our room was a family room, which was very contemporary and situated on the top floor. It... More

We stayed at the Lindsay Guest House in May for 3 nights with 4 German friends. We split the stay whilst going on a short coach trip and Keith was very accommodating re our car and all other issues. The accommodation is excellent-a lovely house well furnished and the bedrooms are all nice. The family room at the top is... More

We spent 2 nights in this very comfortable Guest House. It was overall a very pleasant and comfortable stay. Private off street parking provided and public transport to city centre right out front! The owners are very welcoming, rooms clean and surprisingly large. Breakfast is fantastic, something for everyone. The coffee offered was a plunger coffee and excellent in flavour.... More

We stayed at the Lindsay Guest House for 2 nights while visiting Edinburgh for sightseeing and attending 2 concerts. We chose the Guest House after reading reviews on TripAdvisor. Very convenient to the City Centre with a good bus service and a nice walk along the canal. Murrayfield was close by. The breakfast was delicious and generous. The twin room... More

We've just returned from our second visit to the Lindsay Guest House and can't wait to visit again in August. We discovered the Lindsay last year when we visited Edinburgh for the Tattoo. While a little bit out of the city centre it is still within walking distance (about half an hour) but there is an excellent bus service right... More

I stayed in a single room with private shower. Keith was very friendly and helpful. He gave me a lot of information about nearby grocery stores, etc. The bathroom was very clean and seemed to be quite new. The room itself was very clean, too - it was equipped with TV, washbasin, hair-dryer, and tea making facilities. Rooms and bathrooms... More

We decided to stay overnight in Edinburgh at the last minute and chose Lindsay Guesthouse online. The other complimentary reviews helped us decide and we weren't disappointed. Our room at the front of the building was lovely, and although the water pressure in the ensuite wasn't terrific, the bathroom facilities were very nice. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the...

My wife and I were very pleased with the welcome we received, even though we arrived early, and the Jeffs did everything to make us, and the other guests, feel comfortable and cossetted. Very handy for transport to our various destinations, and time spent by the canal at the back of the house is not wasted - always something of... More
