Leith House

We waited outside in the rain for 15minutes or more waiting to get an answer. We followed instructions on where to ring bell etc, tried calling the 3 numbers attached to door however got no answer at any of them! Once inside we found staff very unfriendly & not bothered that we had to wait so long outside. The room was so small, and very dark as not all lights worked, some were hanging off wall. To cables were exposed which loomed really bad. Toilet was teeny & not very nice, the so called unit under sink looked dreadful, their DIY skills aren’t good, however the shower worked well. To be honest we did not get our monies worth which was almost £163 for one night without breakfast. This hotel is not worth the money & we certainly will not be returning or recommending.

Nice

The TV remote was poor and wouldn't change channels. The internet password could have been in the room as didn't see it till we were leaving

Good location with nice bars and restaurants nearby. Walkable to city centre and Leith town centre but also lots of transport options. The room was clean. The bathroom was clean enough but there were areas in the shower that need re-sealing and the shower floor was chipped in one area. Plenty of toilet roll provided though! Room was always lovely and warm which was nice considering how cold it was outside. Bed was also comfy

Very good value for money here. Beds was very comfortable and had everything you need in your room. Very close to a tram station where you can quickly get the tram into the main town centre in just a couple of stops making it very easy and convenient. The place did need a bit more of a through clean however, on the surface the room clean but it needed a good scrub in the shower especially, some very small mould marks to be wiped off the walls and the floor needed a good clean albeit I am a clean freak at home. Overall, I will return back to this hotel as I believe the value for money, location and comfort topped it.

Clean very reasonably priced. 5 minutes walk from Tram line in to Main Street Edinburgh

We were in room 7. A double and single. Perfect for us. However, the room was very small, very warm and very noisy. Everytime someone flushed a toilet, ran a tap or had a shower it was super loud. There must be a waste water pipe in the room. Would not recommend

It's ok , it's fairly clean and tidy , close to city either by bus or walking, it's all a bit dated but overall kept clean , I did have a strange mark on my ceiling where it had been poorly repaired I suspect from a leak above, I was also in basement so no looking out at all, which is a bit tough no real natural light just a smidge through the window but very dark . Would I stay again yes I probably would for location but that's about it .

Room was below street level w a window that faces a brick wall.

Lovely quiet street. Even sleeping at the front there was beautiful peace and quiet. Room was wonderfully cosy on a cool November night and made you feel welcome.

This is just an honest review with our thoughts on our stay. When we were checking in which was just around the end of the check in time we expected more professionalism. The night porter/ receptionist came around in pyjamas, and not friendly or welcoming, would recommend customer service training, because being nice is free. The room did not really look like the one on the pictures. Once we got to our room it stank of whisky, but there are also some positives. The room was very clean including the bathroom - bedding and towels. The room had amenities, coffee and tea, kettle and a TV. To add the room was warm, and the pillows and mattress were comfortable.

Great modest place. Quiet neighborhood close to tram/buses. Comfy bed, great shower. Carpet needs changing.

Easy to find, close to trams, slept well.

A good quality bedroom and bathroom, in a warm, well presented building. The bedroom was not large but perfect for the 2 of us. We liked it and would book again. On Leith Walk a short walk away a range of interesting eateries. We chose Turkish. There was also Tai, Indian, Italian, and others. Took time for staff to open entrance door and a system to advise staff have heard bell and are coming would be helpful. Staff were very helpful.

Bedroom carpet very dirty.bathroom, bath in need of good scrub,bed looked home made but beding and towel were clean.tiles on wall need cleaned as grout was dirty.

Leith House isn't for us. Room was tiny and not practical. The bed though was extremely comfortable.

Extremely rude and moody check in lady , pressed the bell upon arrival waited for 20 minutea for someone to come and let us in there is no reception at this property. The bed was extremely uncomfortable and it was making squeaky noises the flooring in the room was also making noise when walking on it there was a bad smell of cigarette smoke and the hot was not consistent asked for a refund it was denied had to involve my bank to get charge back

We did not have a great experience at this guest house. It all started with our check in. What a mess. It said to ring the bell at the next door over and to wait for someone to service us. Nothing stated how long this would take. We rang the bells (mind you there was two bells, didn't know which to ring, so rang both) and waited, and waited. Nobody showed up. We tried calling the emergency numbers, but those didn't work either. After a quite some time we tried talking to neighbors and one finally helped us out. We were eventually let in, but instead of just apologizing the lady just said she didn't hear any bell, we must not have rung the right one. She continued to push the buttons to show us how it works, and then realized that they didn't actually work very well. Then she proceeded to take our info and gave us the key. The room itself we small, but mostly clean. Uncomfortable bed. Tiny added bathroom in the room, could barely get on the shower. Parking sucked, as you had to park on the street, but there was not a lot of free space, and if you did manage to get a space, it is paid parking during the day. Most parking on the street is permit parking. Overall, we did not have a good time at this place. Would not stay again.

The staff did not answer the bell for 30 minutes. Another couple went to a neighbors door who finally let us in and then the property manager said we didn’t ring the bell.

As good as the property was, the room I was given was big and spacious, but it started leaking water right on one of the beds when it rained just about the time I was checking out this morning. Apart from this, it's a fantastic please.
