Room was just big enough, and was fine for what we needed. A little tight for my wife and me for 3 days, but a good price and close enough to town by Uber. Breakfast is good, and Thomas is friendly. …

Great location, clean, modern and comfortable accommodation. Extra little touches like a small pitcher of milk in fridge for your coffee or tea. Very quiet in room and nice big screen tv. Hostess was very friendly. Would highly recommend and will try to book next time in Edinburgh.

With a heavy heart, I’m posting first in my life negative opinion. I’m sure this place is lovely, but here’s what happened. Our region has been recently flooded and a natural disaster has been declared in the area where I live. This is a truly challenging situation we (my country) found ourselves in. Because of that my husband and I decided to stay to take care of our home. I reached out to the property a few days ago to change our reservation. My question was disregarded. When I followed up on the next day, I received an auto-response sounding like message informing me that we cannot change our booking because we haven’t requested the change 7 days before our check-in. Well, natural disasters don’t usually follow cancellation policy and don’t announce themselves a week prior, do they 😅Anyway, I lost quite a lot of money (cancellation fee = price of the entire stay of 4 nights) but also the magic is gone. Edinburgh was one of my favorite places in the world. But under difficult circumstances when a decent reaction would mean the world, you get a template response and a big No, it’s just sad.

Quiet guest house with helpful hosts, good beds, and delicious food. I enjoyed walking through the nearby city park to see Lauriston Castle and Gardens. We were thankful to be able to check in early when we were tired after a long bus journey!

We are currently staying at Acer Lodge and can highly recommend it. The entire place is immaculately presented and the rooms are spotless. Our room came with a mini fridge, bottled water as well as tea/coffee making facilities. …

Everything was terrific, including the traditional Scottish breakfast. Good location, roughly midway between city center and EDI airport. Their location is right on a bus route. The room was clean and well thought out. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom nice, albeit a bit small, but a very good shower made up for it.
