On the plus sides, the location of the Castle View Guesthouse is great - within walking distance from the train station, the castle, really close to restaurants, cafes and the likes. And given all its centrality it is relatively quiet too. So location-wise it's hard to do better, especially for the money. The rooms are clean and seem to be... More

Trying to find a place to stay for a fair price, in a city, with breakfast, can be a bit of a pain. BUT we found a really nice place. Is it 4 star? probably not, is it clean, comfortable, and fairly quiet? Yes it is. Met by Magic ( his English name?) A charming and helpful guy, we were... More

Stayed in a family room (for 4 adults, 2 children) number 9. Communication before arriving was excellent; our grandson being wheat and gluten free was no problem and leaving our cabin cases after an early morning flight before checking in in the afternoon also no problem. The room was large with 3 double beds (unfortunately 1 had springs a bit... More

Great value accommodation in a great location. We were on the top floor (4) so not for those with any mobility problems. There is no lift as this is a listed building. Room was large, beds very comfortable. Breakfast was very good with lots of choice. Only fault would be the noisy plumbing system. Would definitely go back.

This is great value for money. very nicely decorated to a very high standard, with tea and coffee making facilities. Immaculately clean modern bathroom with lots of little bottles of shampoo shower gels and moisturisers. The staff are friendly and welcoming also giving us lots of information on both the hotel and the area. The owners and staff seemed to... More

Martin greeted us upon arrival and was very friendly. The guest house is in a fantastic location, across the road is the famous Rose Street, with... More

Stayed here for three nights over Easter. Very friendly and helpful staff. Great breakfast - full scottish breakfast with haggis was included in the price. Family room was huge - plenty of room for the four of us with space to spare. Free wi-fi was useful with teenage children. Bathroom was immaculate - clearly been recently refurbished to high standard.... More

Stayed here for one night over Easter. Guest house ideally located about 10 mins walk from both Waverley Street train station and the Usher Hall where we went for a concert. We had a room on the first floor which was lovely and clean and with a super bathroom and shower. Although we were next to reception we had no... More

Very friendly and helpful staff. Tasty breakfast. Good central location ... walkable to just about everything. Lots of restaurants and pubs nearby. Room was comfortable, large and clean. The stairs didn't bother us. The only downside ... the location is very close to a row of pubs. We were there on a weekend ... and when the pubs closed, the... More
