Pros: Pre booked breakfast set us up for the day with an early start for the bus to the city centre, ready for a day visiting the fringe, international festival and the Tattoo.

Cons: Very little, it might benefit from USB charging points for phones etc.

Great stay at Falcon Crest - would definitely stay again!

Pros: Easy to find, not far from bus stop straight into the city centre, comfortable bed, TV apps all working. Overall very cosy and easy to relax in.

Cons: It would be helpful to have a hairdryer in the room - though we note one was available upon request. This could be made clearer when booking.

Great location, relaxing friendly stay.

Pros: Location with off road parking Friendly lovely owner. Room Cleanliness and good hot shower Would recommend the Excellent scrambled eggs for breakfast Can come and go as you wish

Cons: Nothing really apart from I would prefer to have breakfast in a breakfast room instead of in your room but the breakfast was served on time and hot each morning.

A hidden gem close to the delights of the Edinburgh Festival

Pros: I stayed at this little gem during the Festival in August 2024. The location is in a quiet, tree lined street, away from the festival crowds but a short bus ride or easy half-hour walk into town. The small but comfortable and clean single room was well appointed and had a lovely ensuite bathroom. The continental breakfast I ordered was just what I needed to start the very busy, fun festival days and was promptly delivered by Stuart with a friendly “Good Morning”. Hosts Kathryn and Stuart were very helpful, friendly and attentive but not intrusive. I highly recommend Falcon Crest Guest House and would stay here again should I find myself in Edinburgh at the best time of year to visit - the festival, it’s so much fun!

Cons: There are a lot of stairs that can be difficult with a heavy suit case (my own fault!).

Exceeded expectations.

Pros: The Guest House is located on a street lined with gorgeous old homes. Getting there from various bus stations and walking down the road surrounded by the type of buildings that people travel to Edinburgh for sets up the perfect start to a holiday. Kathryn was an incredible hostess who offered helpful travel tips and great chat. The room was impeccably clean and all the information about the stay was neatly laid out in writing (as someone who likes instructions this was a major bonus). The bed was incredibly comfortable and the window seating allowed me to stare out the window and enjoy the views of the neighbourhood.

Karolina 9/10

Pros: As other guests have already described, the breakfast was very tasty and you could choose what you wanted to have the next day. The hosts were also extremely charming and polite. We particularly appreciated the fact that check-in and check-out were so easy, even though our arrival and departure times were not particularly convenient. We liked the location close to the sea and the botanical gardens.

Cons: Everything was according to our expectations. Thank you very much.

Jaque 10/10

Pros: Lovely quiet residential part of Edinburgh, yet only a short bus/taxi trip to the centre. Our favourite part is definitely the hosts! Very attentive, approachable, friendly, you name it! It felt like staying with a family member.

I am so glad I chose to stay here!

Pros: Kathryn and Stuart were excellent hosts. If you want to experience Scottish hospitality this place is definitely the one. The rooms are clean and equipped with everything you need for your stay. They also had a kettle, tea, coffee, sugar and shortbread biscuits in the room and fresh milk was also provided. The location is fantastic with easy access to public transportation and the neighborhood is residential and quiet.
