Wonderful stay in Scotland
This was the ideal place for my two week stay in Scotland. The location was perfect because it is within walking distance of my sister's home and close to bus stops that take you everywhere in the area. David was a delightful host and I felt very welcome and comfortable.

Wonderful Hogmanay stay with attentive host!
David was a fantastic B&B host. Very attentive and provided a lovely breakfast on the morning of New Year’s Day. Easy to get into the city centre with a few regular bus options. Would recommend staying here!

The proprietor David was a lovely man. His breakfasts were tasty and delicious. Good B&B for an old-school stay. Old Georgian home so if you like a historic stay, this is it.

Avoid, there are far better options nearby
On our arrival (couple with child) the front and rear doors were locked, there were no lights on and, looking through the windows, the building appeared to unoccupied and abandoned. We telephoned hotels.com who telephoned the owner who said he was there. We returned and I met the owner who led me through the house which was dark, untidy, dusty, dated, and in poor repair and and smelled of cats or dogs (there were animal food and water bowls). I was shown the room which was looked like it had not been decorated in years. I left and informed hotels.com that the accommodation was totally unacceptable - our child has asthma - and requested a refund and was told that under their terms a refund is at the discretion of the owner who refused. We arranged nearby alternative accommodation which was excellent.

David the owner is very knowledgable and personable. He knows Edinburgh extremely well. The location is great for bus services into the centre of town and the breakfast was delicious. It is an old house and bares the marks of time, but overall it was a very pleasent stay.

Great place to stay in Edinburgh
Stayed at Spylaw Bank House on two occasions and both have been great! The place is clean and comfortable, and host really friendly and accommodating! Would definitely stay here again next time I visit Edinburgh! Great transport links into town too.
