We truly enjoyed our stay! The room was beautiful, with a wonderful view from the window and a comfortable, spacious bed — I was pleasantly surprised. Everything was well thought out: there were shampoos, earplugs, coffee, and tea. We loved the shared kitchen, stocked with cereals, milk, spreads, and toast bread, so you can help yourself and prepare breakfast or enjoy a cup of coffee. There were also board games and cozy background music, which made the atmosphere even nicer. The hosts were exceptionally friendly — they let us check in early, kept our luggage on the last day, took great care of us, chatted with us, and were ready to help with anything we needed. Highly recommended!

The accommodation here was perfect! We had a really nice girly room with a makeup table. We used to come by bus which is only about 10 minutes from the city centre. The personal was so nice to us, everything we needed was there. They were replying on every message and were so helpful. The cleaning lady was also so nice and every morning brought us a package of food (breakfast). I was so surprised about that and it was amazing. Definitely highly recommend this accommodation in a really beautiful area of Scotland 😊

  • Elder York Guest House

    Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.6
    Fabulous - What previous guests thought, 1,821 reviews
    The guest house was in a great location. Next to the bus station, 5 minutes away from Waverley station. Our room was clean with firm comfy beds, exactly as we requested. Murray, our host, was helpful and polite, and looked after us so well. Our room had a great view from the windows. The breakfast was lovely. The rooms were quieter than I had expected given the location.

    Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.0
    Superb - What previous guests thought, 658 reviews
    This was undeniably the perfect stay. Firstly, beautiful and charming house in a nice residential area not far from Edinburgh city centre (only a 15 minute bus ride or a 40 minute walk), super clean and quiet room, very comfy bed and modern bathroom with all the necessities. Secondly, breakfast was delicious, freshly cooked every morning by the owner. Last but not least, Kingsley Guest house is run by a very friendly family who made me feel at home as soon as I stepped inside. Highly recommended.
