Murrayfield Park Guest House

The property was advertised as Bed & Breakfast, but there was no breakfast. Room and check in were fine.

The room was big enough, clean enough - but the shower was out of order. No alternative offered. Would I return? Yes - but would specify a working shower!

Very Hurible experience. Dirty and dusty carpet and room surrounding very duty and dirty. No youtube station very old small Tv in room. Very poor and dissatisfied with hotel will Never go there again.

Easy access to the property and location to local amenities is excellent 👌

You won't meet any staff here if you're outside working hours or weekends, there's a lockbox and you arrange with the owner on the phone, it's easy enough I suppose. The place itself is old, the shower hose leaked like mad and the drain was blocked so the shower tray filled up in no time. They must know about this because despite the problems it is cleaned before each new tenant, and it was certainly clean enough with nice bedding and as it's an old building it was quiet also. You can't really get much cheaper at short notice in Edinburgh. There are no dining facilities, but a short walk up to the Roseburn cafe will give you a good choice of breakfast, and you don't have to stick to hotel timings, which is one way of looking at it. The place served my purpose, shortish notice, single occupancy, meeting family in town for the weekend, so not a disaster at all. Thanks

In four nights staying at Murrayfield Park (2 nights each, a week apart) we never once saw or spoke to a staff person. We were only able to enter the building, originally, after pounding on the door and were let in by other guests who provided the door code. They said they'd had the same experience. We had to guess as to which room was ours, and find our own key. Others' bath products left in shower, obviously not cleaned. No WiFi for second stay. Stained tea stirers, left from last guest; sticky carpet; a single, hard, flat pillow. Basement rooms, with single window opening onto street, so one had choice of breathing traffic fumes, and being on full view of anyone passing, or stifling. First room window hinge was broken, so room very unsafe. Original booking referred to Murrayfield Park as a "Bed & Breakfast", not a hint of any food available. We called all the numbers scribbled on note left on front door, several times, left voice mail, which was not returned. Complained to Expedia, who reported they attempted--and failed-- to reach staff several times, so we were not able to cancel our second stay, very unfortunately. Spoke to a frequent Edinburgh visitor who told us this venue has a horrible reputation, so apparently our experience was not unique. Too bad Expedia doesn't do more than lip service.

The property was clean and bright,and centrally located with good transportation Links to the city center. I did not like that you have to phone to get the access code also the fact that there is no one on site overnight. Doesn't seem safe to me.

Clean room

Staff on site were nonexistent . Have to phone the office to make arrangements - not easily done if you don’t have a voice plan on your phone. We had to ask a local person to make the call for us. Black mold around the shower stall.

Stayed just for one night,didn't had time to explore the area around the property. Was close to Murray field stadium,that's what I was looking for. Thank you 😊

Place was terrible. As soon as you went in the front door of the building the stink of urine was terrible. Beds were poor quality,hard mattresses pillows were a waste of time very poor quality. None of the lights beside the beds worked. Socket on the wall was broken so instead of repairing the problem a strip of duck tape was placed over it. Kettle was wired straight into the wall with exposed wires. ABSOLUTE RIP OFF. £389 for a room with 2 single beds for 1 night😡😡

Not an ideal location. Right on a main street.

Offered self service check in which was convenient. Bed was fine and linen was clean so cant really complain, definitely better than other reviews make it out to be. Shower fixtures could do with a little work, felt like i was gonna pull it off the wall adjusting it, and a shelf for shampoo bottle would be nice but in general was a fine enough stay

Had a 1 night stay very pleased lovely room just what we needed would definitely stay again

Brilliant value twin ensuite, which looks like it has been recently renovated in a great location and great value. Was apprehensive based on previous reviews but was also open minded due to the price. The communal areas are certainly a bit dated but my room was fresh, clean and comfortable with a big ensuite and cracking shower. I stayed an extra night due to not feeling well enough to travel and the staff member who dealt with my check in and the daily running of the hotel was brilliant throughout and always checking if I was okay and needed anything. The location is also excellent and I will return.

It was quite and made it very relaxing

Don’t be fooled by the bed & breakfast on ad. Yes bed but no breakfast provided

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.
