it was well located, beautifully maintained, secure and clean. As a single female traveller I was very comfortable and safe in my beautifully decorated single bedroom. The at table full breakfast was delicious, freshly cooked and served to my table and so much nicer than those large hotel buffet styles. I loved the press coffee!

Nicole United Kingdom

Great room, great location, and the staff was great as well. We had an amazing breakfast as well, that was included. Would definitely stay here again.

Greg United States of America

Good clean property. Great breakfast. Nice easy walk into town.

Andrew Australia

The host greeted me and helped me get to my room and explained the facilities. I asked about getting a taxi to train station for next morning at 5:00am and he made the immediate call and confirmed with me.

Arthur United States of America

Wonderful quaint hotel with an excellent Breakfast. I beleive it was the owner that checked us in and out and he was very friendly and professional. Would stay their again if in Edinburgh.

Nancy United States of America

The staff were nice enough but not very interactive. The accommodations were neat and clean, adequate for my needs. The breakfast (Full English) was good. Very convenient to Haymarket train station and old-town Edinburgh, the tram, and bus to the airport.

Harry United States of America

The building was lovely. Our room was spacious, warm and comfortable. And the bus stop was very close!

Amanda United States of America

Great breakfast, clean, comfortable, quiet, good location.

Andrea United States of America

Very comfortable place to stay, easy to get from the airport, train station and nice area around. The room and bathroom was clean, excellent large breakfast in a fancy dining room. The entire building is mid 18-th century, which gives additional charm to the stay. The owner was wonderful.

Breakfast was ok, good variety, cereal, yoghurt, toast, orange juice , tea or coffee. Full breakfast was ok, recommend an upgrade on the quality of the sausage. Could have had mushrooms... Free parking good. Location excellent - 15 minute walk to Waverley Street. The covid screens in the breakfast - reassuring and showed that they took covid seriously Knock out view of Donaldson's - bit like looking out on Downton Abbey! Very handy for the National Museum of Modern Art - saw a Kingfisher on the bridge over the Water of Leith.
