Ailsa Guest House

Edinburgh

What a lovely place to stay, close to everything and handy for regular buses. Kay makes you feel oh so welcome and nothing is too much trouble, accompanying Kay is her lovely frenchies; Lola & Olly who also make you feel welcome. Room clean & spacious; ours overlooked the gardens. The usual tea/coffee etc but also regular bottles of water - a nice addition. Due to COVID, our breakfast table was pre-set with a selection of cereals, croissants, fruit, yoghurts, juice as well as ample supply of toast, tea, coffee and a scrummy cooked breakfast. Friendly, relaxed atmosphere - def worth visiting, thank you Kay.

Perfect

Travelling on my own I was welcomed  and immediatly felt comfortable. The breakfast was brilliant.  Choices were Cereal,fruits,cereal bar,muffin,toast as well as a full Scottish breakfast plus haggis    ..Bedroom very comfortable and I wanted for nothing. I had all I needed. Location not too bad . 15 to 20 min walk to centre of city but bus stops   very close

Home from home friendly

most amazing place, a 10 for everything,  fantastic hosts, immaculate clean and comfortable rooms, super breakfast,  we love the place and will return, nothing and I mean nothing is any trouble, even down to the lovely cake for my daughters birthday. Thanks so much

Amazing

Absolutely fabulous.  Cannot fault this place.  Nothing is any trouble.  Breakfast is lush and rooms are spotlessly clean.  Made us feel very welcome and my daughter got an unexpected gift from them.  Would highly recommend the visit

Birthday For My Daughter

Very good address for visiting Edinburgh. The rooms are very comfortable and pleasant. Accommodation and low-maintenance hotels. Consistent, varied and customized breakfast on demand. Bus stop nearby.

That's great.

We were thrilled to learn that Ailsa's Guest House was pretty much a 15 minute walk from the city centre! If you are travelling from the airport or the train, the main stops are right in the city centre next to all shopping and transit, plus the hop on hop off busses... VERY convenient!!!

The property itself is very quiet! This is hard to find in most cities. The management team are really down to earth, approachable, and can give you the need to know on anything and everything!  Our room was quite large in comparison to other guest houses we have stayed in. Any replenishment of toiletries and towels, they are on it! The breakfast was very cute as well. A hot breakfast with a few made to order options from the menu. 

We enjoyed our stay very much and would welcome another opportunity if we were to travel by Edinburgh again! If you like quiet, simple, clean, and straight forward uncomplicated comfort - Ailsa's Guest House is a location to consider!

Thank you Ailsa Guest House family!

Very cute hidden retreat in the city!

I can't assess the condition of the other rooms, the single room where I dare spend the night, but it's an absolute dirt hole. The room was in the basement. The hallway smelled bad and the cleaning was already crumbling from the walls. The room smelled nice, no wonder, in almost every corner was mold. The window didn't open. But at the sight of the ugly yard it was maybe even better. The carpet and the walls were stained with stains. Spinach webs in the corners. The shower looked as if they were falling apart.

Dirty hole.

Very easy to find from the railway station. Royal Mile is about 25 minutes' walk. Full Scottish breakfast. On weekdays at 7.30am on Saturday and Sunday at 8.30am, friendly staff.

Excellent.

A single room is small, but clean and well equipped (even a warm air blower which I thankfully used when it was getting chilly and raining outside). The wc/shower room was of an agreeable size, not too tiny. Breakfast was good and service was fast and friendly. For one or two nights it is a reasonable choice if you want to be budget friendly.

Value for money

A good base for exploring the city - not far from the Old and New towns and near the vibrant Canonmills areas if you don't fancy walking too far for a drink or meal. The owner is friendly and helpful and there are two cute pug dogs who potter around the front steps.
