Edimburgo Bed and Breakfasts

Prós: Very friendly owner. Good bed. Carpark at the house

Contras: The room was rather small

Prós: Everything was great; comfort, cleanness, staff, location. The breakfast was delicious. We enjoyed our stay.

Contras: The glass is clear from outside. I would prefer if it was clear from inside and tinted from outside for privacy. We kept closing the curtains all the time for privacy, particularly since our room was on ground floor.

Prós: Breakfasts were amazing and location was brilliant for walking into centre.

Contras: N/a

Prós: Lovely room. Breakfast was great.

Contras: Bed a little hard.

Prós: Clean, comfy and a brilliant breakfast

Contras: Nothing negative

Prós: Very clean, exactly as advertised, close to transit and convenient. Friendly and helpful staff!

Prós: Rooms looked great Bed was super comfy Room was very clean Breakfast was plentiful and tasty On site parking was brilliant for us

Contras: Nothing all, all was very good, will come again

Prós: Hosts were very friendly and attentive, Breakfast fabulous, room was comfy and cleaned daily,

Contras: overhead shower not very powerful and temperature was difficult to get right.

Prós: The extra care & attention to our comfort needs, beautiful rooms, very clean & delicious breakfasts.

Prós: Fiona and Jimmy are so friendly and helpful, they make you feel at home.... the best place!!! The rooms are nice, everything is so clean, breakfast delicious... If I come back someday, for sure I will stay there again!!

Prós: Great location, on a choice of regular bus routes and easy walking distance to our son’s flat. Spacious room, spotlessly clean, nice touches like sherry and bathroom toiletries. Absolutely fabulous breakfast with freshly baked bread. Helpful owner who gave us advice on bus routes and restos in the area.

Prós: Very nice room and kind personal stab

Prós: Fantastic location. Great communication with owner before and during stay. Very welcoming hosts. The most amazing breakfast I’ve ever had! Can’t wait to come back and stay longer!

Prós: Breakfast was sensational, friendly owners :)

Prós: Breakfast was exceptional and room was very comfortable and tastefully decorated. Paul was very welcoming and had plenty to tell us about the area and the house itself. We stayed in the double room with separate access and would happily stay again as it felt really quite private and had its own wee mini kitchen and lounge shared only with one other room. The location was perfect for us as its in a lovely part of town with the centre easily accessible. Would definitely recommend and we plan on returning in the future.

Prós: Excellent hosts, made to feel very welcome from arrival to departure.

Prós: Excellent breakfast, great hosts, great place to stay

Contras: Nil

Prós: The room was the thing I liked the most, it was little but the bed was pretty good and it was clean. The location was very centric too, so that´s another good thing if you want to book this hotel. The bath and shampoo and soap were good too, smelled nice. The shower had good water pressure and I particularly enjoyed it.

Contras: Sometimes the wifi ran very slow. There was no minifridge in the room, bummer because we needed it. There was no parking available, but when I called the number provided by their booking page at our arrival a lady told me that sometimes they have parking space and that I should go ask at the reception. The lady from reception treated me very bad, she was extremely rude to me, treated me like I was inventing things and looked at me over her shoulder. She did no effort to understand my spanish accent and acted like she couldn´t understand me. I mean, I do science in cancer research and I speak perfect English...C´mmon! The whole situation put me in a bad mood Fortunately, we went to park the car and when we went back to the hotel, other guy at the reception was very nice to us, even asked us about our Edinburgh plans and about our roadtrip and gave us advices. There was no lift and room was situated 3rd floor, it should be properly advertised, since I had knee surgery three months and still have difficulties with the stairs. There have to be better places to stay in Edinburgh

Prós: Great location for the Fringe venues. Breakfast was an added bonus.

Contras: Stayed on the 4th floor so a lot of stairs, but was told there was no lift. The bed was partially situated under the sloping roof, so even though I tried to be careful, still banged my head twice

Prós: food was fab

Contras: nothing to report

Prós: Great breakfast! Very clean room and comfortable bed.

Contras: No air con - absolutely melted in the heat in such a small room.

Contras: It isn't a real Hotel , it is like a big B&B with only a reception. PAY ATTENTION.....there is no LIFT!! there is no LIFT!! there i no LIFT!! If are on the 4 floor .........good luck!!

Prós: The breakfast was fabulous and the staff who served it were super friendly and made us feel very welcome. They were also efficient and attentive to my dietary needs (coeliac disease). Every member of staff we encountered was cheerful, friendly & helpful.

Contras: There was no room for a bedside table on my side of the bed and I had to crawl in and out from the bottom. We couldn't have stayed there for more than a couple of nights. The room was also too hot but when we opened the window, the noise from the street kept us awake.

Prós: Liked the location, ideally near all the main sightseeing spots and buzz of the city. Really clean, huge shower and gorgeous bed with usb portals and plenty of plugs. The breakfast included in the price was delish!!

Contras: Wouldn’t change a thing

Prós: Great location, nice staff!

Contras: The room its very small.

Prós: Nice clean compact rooms you get what you see on website. Close to city centre good location for exploring Edinburgh.

Contras: No air conditioning so found the room very warm. Also the reception area and where you had your breakfast were seperate to where the rooms are which was a bit weird for a hotel but not too much of big deal.

Prós: Clean tidy and good and helpful staff.

Contras: This was the first time we've stay at KM central and all the first time in Edinburgh we will return to both.

Prós: Location was great, room was secure and comfortable

Contras: Annoying you can’t drop bag off before you check in or leave it for a couple hours after checking out like you can at a lot of places. Although the lockers at the St. Andrews bus stop were very good

Contras: More plugs to charge phone It was really hot

Prós: The location is good

Contras: I had two main gripes with the property: 1. The room floor was significantly tilted. This is unacceptable to me for a rental accommodation - there shouldn't be renting. 2. The service was terrible. I called twice to inquire about a late checkout. Both times I was met with a curt rejection and no further explanation.

Prós: The checking in process was different (getting a code to get through the door), but worked really well.

Contras: Nothing.

Prós: Keyless entry system. Location is great, close to restaurants, bars and attractions. Basic but comfortable accomodation. Tea and coffee. Cleanliness!!

Contras: Nothing.

Prós: Awesome central location place to stay run by extremely helpful and lovely people.

Prós: Tea & coffee with chocolate biscuits was a nice touch. Bed was comfy, and the shower was very nice. Room was very clean and tidy - spotless in fact! The hotel is situated in a very nice part of the city, a short walk away from most of the attractions in the centre.

Contras: Can't really fault it. The attic room is suited to vertically challenged people like me.

Prós: Excellent location walking distance to everything.

Contras: Large number of stairs to the property

Prós: Once I mastered the codes to enter it was fine

Contras: Did not realize that a first floor room required climbing 4 flights of stairs lugging my suitcase

Prós: Very good location. Friendly reception, clean room

Contras: Up a lot of stairs!!

Prós: Each room has its own sleeping quarters and bathroom, which were very well maintained. The area is very safe, and about a block from all the hubbub of New Town.

Contras: My email contained the wrong room number. I tried to open Room 10 which was behind the counter instead of Room 1 which was in front and on the keys I retrieved. Maybe I would've felt a little better if I had seen someone, but there's no 24-hour reception here. My plug converter, which I had just bought at a nearby shop (there are tons), blew out. Kids, try to avoid power strips. Just buy a couple of converters. So I had to borrow on the 5-day tour departing the next morning.

Prós: It was situated in walking distance of practically everything

Contras: The amount of stairs to climb

Prós: The location was ok. 5-10 taxi ride to city centre, not too much within walking distance. The breakfast was ok, and staff for it were nice.

Contras: The value for the what we got in service and a room was poor. There was no one to meet us to explain where we should park, where the facilities were, and consequently no assistance. The room was small and awkward...constantly hitting our toes and shins on the bed to get around. I understand prices go up for the festivals going on in town (which wasn't why we came anyways), but prices for taxis and such don't go up. In spite of the prices being higher at that time we stayed at a comparable guesthouse around the corner a few days before and had a bigger room, our own bathroom vs. the shared one at this place, and great assistance by the proprietor...and for $40 less!

Prós: Bed covers were full of mites which left me with spots and a bad itch all night.

Contras: There was a lady and man arguing in the next room in the dark night didn't get much sleep, well hardly at all d9dnt sleep too m7ch noise and bed mites biting me all night.

Prós: Great location for getting to Easter rd.

Contras: Downstairs room next to the front door so it was very noisy. Curtains didn't close properly so it was light. Can't rate staff as we didn't see anyone after check-in.

Prós: Bathroom was clean.

Contras: Asked for 3 pounds for Wi-Fi password.most hotels this is in the cost. Bedside table dusty.

Prós: The bed was reasonably comfortable. The TV worked, as did the kettle.

Contras: Almost everything about this place. The staff are rude, ignorant and frankly, lazy. It’s extremely dated as well as having to pay for WiFi. What the hell?

Prós: This is just not a top rate place. Other than tea/coffee in room and shampoo/ soap, it was just ok. No cups in bathroom. Carpet needs replaced. Had to ask for pillows, no extra key, so you had to travel together or wait to get in to room.

Contras: I will say towels we're soft and good sized.

Prós: There were no problems. Location was a good 20min walk from anything so please be aware of your location and abilities. Also fast food was about that far. Staff was awesome. Room was very small but perfect for a solo traveler. Overall it was great.

Prós: It was clean

Contras: The actual set up door shut in our face twice. Went next door to get someone. Had to go next door to register. Cleaners were not happy we wanted to stay in our room as they were using it for laundry. Room wasent cleaned when we arrived. Very noisy hearing floorboards creaking and people moving around all night. No internet service on mobile due to being out in basement!!!!

Contras: The room provided was in the basement. Had a window with no screen or security so it was impossible to keep open at night. Room was hot. Mattress was horrible. We left after the first night even though we had paid for teo

Prós: Staff always friendly, good location and value for money. Rooms are always clean and big enough for 4

Prós: Although the bath itself was not inviting the actual shower was good.

Contras: On arrival was left outside the door while a person at an ajoining property was informed of our arrival. Taken next door to downstairs room to sign booking form. Asked for passport - not sure why as we aren't foreign nationals. Taken back to Leith House to our room. Paid for superior double but got a queen size bed. Curtains coming off rail & hem falling down. Bathroom door opened outwards into room and would only stay closed by placing our luggage against it. The room was hot & stuffy at night but as we couldn't close the bathroom skylight we had to keep the room window closed to avoid the door rattling with the draft caused under the large gap under the bathroom door. Very disappointed.

Prós: Clean and friendly. Very basic but very clean and had all we needed for 1 night stay.

Prós: Good location. Close to central city. Had private parking so we left the car at the guest house and walked 30 minutes to the city.

Contras: The tv was not working! The front door did not lock properly. But the worst thing was something else. .. We went to bed and got woken up from bites. Thought it was mosquitos but when we turned on the lights we saw that the bed and pillows were full of small mattress bugs! It was horrible. We went down to the reception to speak with someone but there was noone there. So we left in the middle of the night to go back to London by car for 7 hours without any sleep as we could not sleep anymore and did not want to book another hotel at night. We sent an email to the guest house to raise our complain but no answer yet...

Prós: As above.it was good value

Contras: Tv didn’t work 1st night and a small fan would have been handy for the hot conditions

Prós: Nothing

Contras: Dirty , staff were rude , someone walked into my room at 11.30 at night

Prós: Didnt like anything about it.

Contras: As the room is nothing like the pictures, and even the managers emoloyee agreed that too. The Manager was not contactable at all. We decided to hand the keys back in, and left. We had to spend more money booking a travelogde. I would not recommended city guest house at all. Other guest were complaining too that the pictures were not like the actual rooms. Very Dissapointed.

Prós: The host was welcoming, great to have a chat with. The room is spacious. Good location - on main road into town. Bus stops are close by but we chose to walk. A range of restaurants are also in close proximity.

Contras: Shower curtain has seen better days and needs to be tossed but hopefully the new management will be on to this.

Prós: Good location and the bed was comfortable.

Contras: There was no shower door in my en-suite so water got everywhere and they only gave me one towel. The front room was quite noisy with the traffic and the room details said the tv came with a DVD player but it didn’t. The room itself wasn’t nicely decorated and the furniture was a bit worn.... You can find nicer places in Edinburgh for the same rate!

Prós: Location was good for our purpose, about 30 min walk to center of city. Were lucky and got parking space.

Contras: Grimy shower and dusty floors and lack of hooks in bathroom and room in general. We were 3 adults sharing, only one place to put one suitcase. No handtowel. Although the bathtowels were good size, they had a strange chemical smell and added to the dust in the room and onto our clothes.

Prós: Washer and dryer

Contras: Confusion in double booking and the time wasted figuring it out.

Prós: Clean sheets, bus stop 100 yards from property.

Contras: Bathroom - No soap so we had to use shampoo sachets we found close to the reception desk, no toilet paper, no towel rail in bathroom, light over shower kept going out, no shelf in bathroom, no shaving socket. Bedroom - Hairdryers had not been PAT tested, bedside tables in very poor state. Two cups but only one saucer, no milk. TV stood on old broken bedside cabinet which had no bottom draw the other draw had no handle. Only one bedside light. Power cut on our floor late afternoon; when I phoned the contact number left on reception the woman put the phone down on me A man did turn up but very frustrating & unpleasant experience.

Prós: The beds were comfy

Contras: The shower was very poor unable to have a decent shower. There were not enough tea/ coffee facilities. The garden was very unkempt with rubbish/ dirty nappies on floor.carpet in stairs was dangerous.

Prós: Location. Staff. Heater in the room.

Contras: Lots of stairs. Low water presure.
