We had a fantastic stay at Crescent House. Michael and Paul were delightful, the rooms were beautiful, spacious, light and clean and so quiet. We also loved the breakfast and having the chance to get to know our wonderful hosts. Location was great too walking distance to all that Edinburgh has to offer. 10/10 stay would love to come back!

We had a lovely two-night stay at The Crescent House in Edinburgh. Paul and Michael, our hosts could not have been nicer and so very accommodating. Their home is stunning! Our room was amazingly comfortable and the breakfast was perfect with fresh fruit and a wonderful variety of foods to choose from. Wish we could have spent more time there! We will definitely be back!

This was our first stay in a guest house and it far exceeded our expectations. The house is spectacular. The interior design is exceptional. We were made to feel very welcome and comfortable for our whole visit. Nothing was too much trouble for our hosts Paul and Mike. Our room was spacious and very comfortable. The breakfast that was provided was delicious with so many choices and all very high quality. Paul and Mike are a wealth of knowledge about dining in and around the area, and gave us much guidance about how to get where we needed to go. They also provided us with help on sightseeing and local knowledge and were always happy just to chat with us in general and showed interest in who we were and what we were up to. Mikes art also gave us much to look at while wandering about the house.Not much around Edinburgh is out of walking distance.We will not hesitate to come back to enjoy their amazing hospitality again when we visit Edinburgh next.Heather & Mark
