Southside Guest House

Clean room, friendly staff

Tolle Lage, angenehmes Ambiente, alles was man braucht, schönes altes Haus.

Simple room, clean. Way off the touristy path

The staff was very polite. The cleaning wasnt the best. Specially in the bathroom

Room spotless, lovely decoration. Easy

Initially disappointed by the tired decor, broken blind and sofa, photos not truthful and concerned on finding negative reviews saying the same ( I’d only seen positive on booking). It was expensive and given too many stars. However I realised Edinburgh is expensive and over priced like London and actually we ended up having a lovely stay. I prefer character to modern. It was quiet even at the front we used shutters to reduce noise, bed comfortable ( new mattress possibly), warm , clean , everything worked well (except a blind and sofa) , breakfast was lovely and reasonable and owner was very helpful and responded quickly by text. We would stay again but not at the price advertised. It was very convenient for getting many different buses and not far by taxi from station. Shops and restaurants close by.

Very shabby room was not ready until an hour after check-in time. From then we never saw a manager or any service personnel or even towel service. We question the legitimacy of the reviews shown on hotels com for this location.

While the room was pleasant & comfortable, the guest house itself felt abandoned. For my entire 3 night stay I never saw anyone staffing the front desk, the restaurant looked shuttered & it appeared as if no one was in charge.

Close to several grocery stores. Convenient bus stops close by, direct link to city centre

It's a great location - tons of restaurants and bars nearby, lots of buses to get around the city or a short 20 min walk from the city center. Very safe. The shower had good water pressure and the hotel and surrounding area were quiet. The room was clean. The beds were incredibly uncomfortable, the room needs a fan as theres no AC, and a few shelves and a box of tissues would go a long way. We were also supposed to be able to check in at 2 pm but the room wasnt ready until 3 pm (and only then because we were getting impatient). They will hold your bags while you wait. This place would be fine for a night or two, but not very comfortable for 5 nights.

We stayed at this Guesthouse on 2 separate nights. We were able to check in early and staff were very polite and considerate. Beautiful old property just needs a little refresh.

Good: handy location, spacious room and spotlessly clean. Staff member I saw was very friendly and helpful Bad: slightly shabby decor in places. Also expensive but that seems to be the norm for Edinburgh - definitely pricier than previous visits to the city.

We only stayed one night in a small double room at this property, but the room was quite adequate and the bathroom was especially wonderful--great shower, good lighting, recently remodeled. It is also located in a nice neighborhood, with several good restaurants and coffee shops close-by, and a reasonable walk (about a mile) to the Royal Mile.

This reresents excellent valuw. Rooms was very clean, all the facilities you would need. No need to pay double the price for something probably not as good. Will definitely book again next time I visit Edinburgh.

Useful location but on arrival no one there and had to call to get access. Not very welcoming. High degree of utility. Nice artworks. Didn’t see any staff at all when I left so went on my way leaving the key as indicated in a glass jar

Muy agradable y comodo lugar, es pequeño pero ideal para moverse en Edimburgo, SOLO SI LES RECOMIENDO CONTACTAR PREVIAMENTE AL PROPIETARIO PARA QUE OBTENGAN SU CLAVE DE ACCESO

Locatie ligt net buiten het drukke centrum, 25 minuutjes lopen of met de bus (meerdere busverbindingen). Ideale locatie

Comfortable room, but we had a room at the front of the building and lots of traffic noise.

Affordable, easy walk to city centre, great restaurants nearby.

Lovely comfortable, spacious room. Lots of really great coffee spots nearby and some amazing food options without the tourist tax of the city centre. I will definitely stay again next time we're up.
