Amazing place to stay! Fully met our expectations! The room was very beautiful. The guesthouse is very nice, you can even use a fridge in the common room. There is a small supermarket at a walking distance. It's also 30 mins walking to the centre, which is not far away.

  • Elder York Guest House

    Fabulous - What previous guests thought, 1,828 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.

  • Kingsley Guest House

    Guest House in Edinburgh
    Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.0
    Superb - What previous guests thought, 662 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.
