to get started.

The location was great and very convenient. It was a 20 minute walk to The Royal Mile. There were several major bus routes that stopped right outside the house. Zara was very helpful and friendly.

The size of room, free parking and location made this a wonderful value.

Dennis

The Bellevue Guest House is a quirky, old fashioned and beautiful guest house that is great value for money. Our room was towards the garden, the house is quiet, and we had two good nights sleep. The bus route to Edinburgh centre (northbound) and to the medical school (southbound) is right outside the guest house. But there are also nice second hand shops and cafes on the way to the city centre (20min walk). The managers/owners were very helpful and friendly. This was our second stay.

Location was great, place was very cozy and comfortable perfect for a couple. So glad we were able to park our rental car there but be aware there are only like two spots. Parking on the wrong spot on the street could result in a ticket but this was explained! Bus stop right outside makes it easy to get to the center or it's about a 25 minute scenic walk. Basic breakfast but it's only an hour long. Check in time was flexible.

Sara was lovely & very accommodating. Bed was comfortable and shower was good. Lots of tea/coffee etc provided. Close to all amenities & not far away from the town.

Emma

Continental breakfast was adequate. Nice Coffee. Serves by the owner who was a nice friendly lady. The location was perfect for my purpose of being close to The Fringe but far enough away to be private. The shower was excellent.

David

United Kingdom

The location was perfect, situated just far enough out of town that it's quiet at night but close enough to walk in. Zara is lovely and the whole area around the property is surrounded by very nice buildings and looks like quite a well off area so I felt very safe leaving my car there for the whole weekend.

Room a bit small .no room to sit down for two people in bed room and no sitting room when you came back to have a chat with friends

This elegant 18th-century Georgian town house is within walking distance of Holyrood Park and has free parking and homemade meals upon request.

The family-run Bellevue Guest House Edinburgh is close to Holyrood Palace and just over a quarter mile from the Royal Commonwealth Swimming Pool. Buses stop nearby and head into the center of the city.

Bellevue has been restored to offer guests traditional charm and modern facilities. All rooms have private bathrooms.

Newington is a great choice for travelers interested in scenery, old-town exploration and friendly locals.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.3 for a two-person trip.

The bed was very hard. A softer mattress would have helped. The tea tray was on a bracket half way up the wall, which I kept bumping into. The ceilings are very high and the telly was so far up the wall you had to crane your neck to see it.

There wasn’t any AC, which probably would have been fine any other time of the year, but it was very hot during our visit. Opening the windows helped a little but not much. Fans would have helped. The WiFi was also sporadic.

The only things wrong with the whole experience was that for us at the time of year it was to warm, which would of been ok if the beds hadn't had a extra thick quilt on or if there was a fan in the room and the Wifi didn't work in our room (but we mainly putting that down to how big these old houses are and what they are made of)

Lady host was smiley but not much conversation, took her a while to answer the door. But the breakfast was minimal, rice crispies or random processed cake for breakfast? Was given tea and toast though. You have to be quick though. Wouldn't call the parking parking. Park and ride it. Room was big but outdated. Small bathroom, even though a family room. Wouldn't suit a family. Stood out waiting for a while. Sheets basic and bed not the most comfortable but ok if you stay for one night. Then on not quite yet the time to leave, got a reminder to get out pretty much,knock knock. Keys. Now onto the next ones.
Location was good, got lucky with the room size.
