Murrayfield Park Guest House

Pros - close to the city centre, (some) parking available, cheap compared to other accommodation in the area. Cons - no one was there to check in - there was a number on the door to ring but that didn't work, found another number which did ring, then told my room key was in the basket but it wasnt - stressful check in and they didn't bother to apologise for this. Fire doors on every room along with a sign saying please close quietly - it appears no one staying here could read as all i could hear all night was room doors slamming. Kettle was burnt on the inside so black bits were coming out with the water, wouldn't advertise as having coffee/tea making facilities when they haven't been cleaned in who knows how long! Booked the single room with private bathroom (paid more for the privilege), the bathroom was not private - it was seperate, in the corridor, with no key, in no way is it private. I couldn't have left any of my stuff in there. Also, advertised with wifi, there's wifi in the lobby area, not in the room. Very unprofessionally managed - i think they know they only get away with being so bad as its in a central location. Wouldn't recommend this place but at the end of the day its a bed for you to try and sleep in and it's cheaper than most others around the city centre.

Awesome location and clean. A few things didn't work but we loved it. Really perfect

No toilets working. Bed uncomfortable. No morning breakfast. Recommend avoid at all cost.

Room was ok for what we needed - just one night. But the only light working was overhead light. Both bedside lights were not working and looked positively dangerous. One of the sockets on the wall was duck-taped over to prevent usage. Wires to the wall for the kettle were bare. I suggest an electrician is sent in to do a check and mend session…

Room is like a prison cell, no tea or coffee only a kettle

40 minutes to get in touch with owner to get access to room.

Solid enough budget option for travelling to Edinburgh & being on the bus route for the airport. The ‘on-site parking’ was a first come first served 2 space drive, but there was some on street parking round the corner (although very luck of the draw as to if there were any spaces). The place was clean and well kept with comfy beds in the bedroom and good water pressure in the shower, albeit a squeeze of a bathroom overall. We had to ring a number to be given the code to get in the door, but getting in a was very smooth. The hotel is literally just a bedroom and nothing else but that did the job for us!

The room was clean and comfortable and it is very centrally located

The radiator was broken and wouldn't turn off. The room was over 30°C in March and the windows were wide open and could not be locked. When I closed the window the heat became unbearable. The room was on the ground floor, with very loud traffic noise, dogs barking and anyone could have climbed in the window. Because of this I felt it wasnt safe for me - a young woman travelling alone - to stay in and I booked a room in a different hotel. I requested a refund and got no response. No staff were on site should there have been any issues. Very unsafe and terrible service.

Don't park your car at this hotel because it will get scratched. Then if you ask the hotel for help and request to check the surveillance footage, they won't answer your calls or reply to your emails.

We could not use wifi in our room. We had no internet access in our room actually, other than that, it was okay.

Good value for money

Good

bedside lamps broken heating not working properly nobody there to meet us and no breakfasts

Very friendly, accomodating staff. Clean and got everything you need in your lovely room. Transport links just outside. Shops & Restuarants are plenty. Home from Home Ran very professionally with Guests at the fore. Would highly recommend

To start with the good: enough buses to catch for the centre. The bed was good. The bad: I slept in one of the front rooms ground level. It was very noisy. Not persé from the traffic, but from people in the room above me. I couldn’t get the window to close properly. Mould in the shower and a cap from the shower temperature regilator fell off straight after touching it. For a short trip ok, but a bit sketchy. Not really worth the price I paid…

Despite the bad reviews this place was ideal , clean , friendly service , we were able to leave bags , shower as excellent , no complaints

just one night, relatively newly refurbished but room not to my taste, Phone was answered after short notice booking and host gave good instructions on how to access after 5pm. basement room had a dingy feel with mould in one corner. Linen was clean and bathroom good. Window not easy to access as high up not sure if it was closed properly as a bit drafty. Bedroom door would only close with a slam. Parking was available with numbered bays I was told but due to the dark It was easier to park in road outside

A beautiful large home, decorated accordingly with upscale first class paintings.
