Alexander Guest House
35, Mayfield Gardens, Edinburgh, EH9 2BX, United Kingdom – Good location – show map
The rooms and bathrooms were clean and comfortable. The decor was beautiful - like being in a upscale home of the past! The bus routes were close and convenient.

very clean and small, cute room for a single traveller, it was perfect

Well appointed room. Clean. TV in room was a nice feature.

Room was cute and had a kettle for tea which was nice in the mornings.

The hotel is a typical Scotish house converted into a Guest House. The room was big, confortable and clean, it truly exceeded our expectations.

Love the sunny family room with the bay window that overlooked the street and parking area. The arrangement was perfect with the two twin beds and one double bed for my two teenage daughters, my husband, and me. The bathroom was clean and the shower door kept any water from pooling. The original crown molding on the ceiling was charming. It is a virtual concierge set-up so you have to come in the front door, turn around to buzz the button. Tip is to shut that first door so you can speak to the concierge over the intercom. Easy, virtual check-in and check-out. Lots of parking nearby was helpful.

The room and bed were really comfortable, clean and nicely decorated, I was situated on the ground floor. The only member of staff I saw was the cleaner during my stay. It was quite peaceful overlooking a nice garden, lots of tea and coffee available and the curtains were heavy to block out a lot of the light at night.

peaceful, safe location, accommodation was clean and tidy, bed comfortable

Very comfy bed, lovely view from the back of the guest house. Very quiet.

-we had a nice and big room -good located, with the bus 20min away from center
