They allowed us to check-in hours early in order to drop off luggage, the place was clean and quiet. Minutes away from a church, a little breakfast place and the bus stop.

We had a great trip to at Strathallen Guest House. This was a great location to explore Edinburgh and the royal mile area without needing to rent a car for the city portion of our trip. Bus stop is right out front and many attractions within walking distance. Our room was clean and charming. A quiet space just outside the busy city center.

The property is in a great location . The room we were in had a very tiny bathroom you couldn't turn round in and the door was coming off its hinges. The owner was excellent and always got back re queries. Some nice places nearby for brekkie and perfect location for a Fringe visit.

We had a lovely stay here! The owner is very kind & let us keep our rental car parked on the property after we checked out so we did not have to find street parking. It’s easy to walk to the city and very clean and cozy! Would stay here again.

Our host was nice and recommended a good pub (The Old Bell) down the road to eat. The room itself was older but clean, enough space, and a good bathroom. The beds are not the most comfortable but they worked fine for the two nights we stayed there. There is a bus stop just down the road for easy transit. It is also only a 20 minute walk into the heart of Edinburgh. A lovely accommodation for the price and location.

This is a lovely heritage property located only 20 minutes walk from the city centre. It's a busy street but that was OK and offered many options for dining, plus pubs and shops. Tea, coffee, water and biscuits were provided by our host and check-in was easy. If visiting Edinburgh in the future, we would definitely book this guest home again.

A pleasant, modest Guest House. Clean, walkable to City Centre, buses available as on a main road, though quiet at same time. Prefer breakfast was available on-site, however not a necessity.

Lovely and close

Great place close to bus stops and walking distance to the Royal Mile. This house was quaint and clean. A few restaurants and shops down the road made it easy to get a bite to eat and load up with water before we headed to the city.
