Lovely, cute and quiet place to stay in Edinburgh. 4 minute walk from bus stop that takes you into town. Would definitely recommend. Hosts were lovely.

Although I had no bathroom ensuite, I did have my own private bathroom. The breakfast was great. I was able to leave my luggage there before check in time, which gave me time to explore a bit. Bus stops very close by.

Thank you for your kind comments - but you did book the budget ‘single with external private bathroom’!!! (You also have an additional large washbasin in the bedroom). We also have ‘single rooms with ensuite bathroom’……but you didn’t book this!

Great place to stay.

Dropping off our son at university this was a good place to stay just around the corner from the halls. It’s a good neighbourhood, reasonably quiet. Dorstan House is a huge, grand old Victorian house, tastefully decorated. Self check in was easy with all the codes being emailed two days before arrival. The breakfast was really tasty and plenty of it. It’s delivered to your room. I’d stay here again when visiting our son. Richard was extremely helpful as we needed an extra room for our son as we’d arrived a day early!

We have stayed here before during the Edinburgh Fringe. This time it felt more impersonal, with breakfast delivered to our room, and no opportunity to meet with other guests

Thank you for your stay and comments. To be fair, it was many years ago that you stayed and well pre-Covid when we, as many similar accommodation providers, had to utilise breakfast room and lounge room for different purposes. All in our details and photos! And, with respect, please do bear in mind that our experience is that not all guests reciprocate your wish to meet other guests!

A delightful property with a friendly host. Their gardens are gorgeous. Conveniently located to city center Edinburgh that is walkable (but there is a bus stop nearby). The property offers a delicious breakfast and very clean and comfortable rooms. There really is no reason not to select this property.
