Breakfast was delivered to your room door in a bag. You select the items you wish to receive from a list, e.g. Cornflakes, yogurt, oatcakes etc. We quite enjoyed this system. The room was spacious and comfortable. There was also a pot of filtered coffee in the dining room that you could use at any time. The dining room also had tables, a micro, toaster and a fridge for the use of the residents at all times of the day. You could bring in food from outside then enjoy it in the dining room. There was also a nice sitting room with a piano open to residents. There was also a computer and printer in the sitting room, however, we did not use them. A lovely welcome from Justina on arrival. Thank you Justina.

Parking is expensive if you take the car on week days.

Beautifully decorated and well cared for in the style of the house as it should be. Easy to get to local restaurants and bars as long as you like walking. Nice, quiet area with lovely, similar properties along the street. Staff were great and posted back a couple of cards I’d left in a drawer, nothing important but saved the inconvenience of replacing them

It’s not on any public transport route so a bit of a walk from any bus stop etc and uphill whichever way you approach it. Not sure about the breakfast being dropped in a bag at the door but worked fine for us wanting to take time to get ready to go out for the rest of the day.

The location is perfect!!! Close to buses, trams, shopping area, bars and restaurants - just what we needed. The place is peaceful and it has so many mature, beautiful trees along the street , we love nature!! Rachel was so accommodating and very pleasant to talk to. We requested for a change of room from the 3rd floor to a lower room and it was attended to right away. Other staff were very helpful and friendly! Overall, it was a lovely experience!

More options for breakfast. Maybe everyday there should be variations for breakfast, ex, on Mondays: Croissant etc Tuesdays: Muffins etc

The hotel itself is in a beautiful location with wonderful views. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was enormous and spotlessly clean. We had a kettle and a supply of tea and coffee and there was also a guest fridge downstairs. We could leave our bags after we'd checked out until it was time to go for our train. And it was really exciting seeing a heron on top of a tree from our window while we were eating breakfast!

The system or ordering breakfast in advance and delivering it to the door works really well (a bit like finding your stocking on Christmas morning). There was also sufficient allowance for us to order a bit extra for our lunch. However, the food provided was a bit 'cardboardy' which meant it was adequate but I'm sure fresher croissants and brioches are not impossible to obtain. The room was overpoweringly hot when we arrived. However, once we turned radiator down it was absolutely fine.

This hotel is in a grand old building, is very clean and as a bonus has a common dining area and lounge room. The one staff member who greeted us was very friendly and helpful. Our room was very spacious with two queen sized beds and good ensuite bathroom. Because of the location, a bit of walk out of centre of town, it was very quiet at night for sleeping.

Nothing really. As above the location is great because it is quiet, but it is a little out of the main centre if you are walking. Also, not an issue for us, but I don't believe there is a lift, and it is a bit of a climb up the grand staircase to the rooms.

The location and view from my room and the charming characteristics of the guesthouse.

Everything was great.

Very friendly, helpful staff on arrival and during our stay. The continental breakfast delivered to our room was perfect for our needs. The hotel location was perfect for attending the Royal Garden Party at Holyroodhouse. The room was very spacious, a double bed and a single bed, both very comfortable. Full length mirror and nice bright mirror for putting on makeup.

I hadn't realised that parking on the street outside the hotel was for a maximum of 4 hours only. After that, you would have to move your car to another street and so on. Parking charges apply from 8.30 am until 5.30 pm and are approx £4/hour. There is a cheaper car park but that involved a tram/bus ride of 20 minutes or so after you have dropped your car off. If you want to drop your luggage off at the hotel first, you need to keep your hazard lights on in the 'permits only' spaces closest to the hotel (or pay for an hour's parking across the road).

It was a very nice property. Our budget room is of decent size, warm, cosy, & quiet, being on the top floor. The location is good - 15-20 min walk from centre of Princes Street / Edinburgh Waverly station, behind Calton Hill, in a quiet residential area. The property is very well managed - staff were responsive, welcoming and helpful. Wifi strong throughout. Nice lounge to sit in even after we'd checked out. We got a takeaway for dinner and ate in the dining room. You choose your breakfast items from a list in advance and they get delivered to your door in the morning.

There was no lift in the property so carrying luggage up and down stairs might be slight challenge. Although there was no hot food available for breakfast, there was still plenty to choose from.

The hotel exceeded my expectations. I had seen reviews online so I had some expectations, but turns out I really enjoyed our stay. First of all, the distance is very convenient. It's just an 18-20 minute walk from the train station and the Old Town, and I was a slow walker! Very close to Calton Hill and Arthur's Seat too. Although it's close to the city, the street was quiet so we still could sleep with the windows open. The room was huge, we reserved a double room but ended up with 1 double bed and 1 single bed, and still plenty of space to use in the room. The cleanliness was top-notch, the bathroom was squeaky clean, and I saw no dust in the room. With the standard/old-style-looking room, I thought I just wanted to use the hotel for sleep and spend most of my time outside (since I was on holiday), but turns out we enjoyed the room quite much we spent a lot of time there too. The garden view was a bonus and really put the cherry on top! Breakfast was unconventional, we could choose 10 items from the list of food they provided, and they would deliver it in a bag from the late night before. It was unusual but I won't complain since we could choose a lot and ended up having more than we needed. There was a dining area with a communal fridge and microwave, but we didn't need it and just had our breakfast in our room. The highlight of our stay is at the end of the time. They allowed baggage drop after check out until whenever we wanted (!), so after check out at 10 am we decided to put our baggage in their sitting room. We went back 2 hours later, drenched wet because of the rain, and the lovely lady who opened the door for us was really kind to offer us towels and said we could dry ourselves and take as much time as we needed there, and we could use the communal bathroom to change. We ended up warming ourselves with tea and coffee from the dining room and waiting for the rain in their lovely sitting room.

There is no lift so would be a little problem for those who have mobility issues or heavy luggage. Luckily we had neither so it was fine for us.

Very clean and comfortable, decoration looked recent. Nice view down towards the Firth. I have stayed in another B&B in this row and know that the view at the back over the garden would also have been pleasant.

Breakfast was a little problematic. It was left in a bag outside the door the night before rather than in the morning, but as this included items like yogurt, butter and cheese I would have appreciated some warning about this. Fortunately the first night I was late back and found it and put the items in the communal fridge, otherwise they would have been inedible when I found them next morning.
