Wot a place! Paola the owner is such a delight and so accommodating. We needed a change of time for our breakfast as we had an early start and she sorted it no problem. The location is great; nice and quiet with a short walk or bus ride into the city. Rooms were just what you need, clean and comfortable... more

A bit shabby

Our room at the Abbotsford Guest House was very small and the two twin beds were quite uncomfortable. We had a nice street view from the garrett window in our room but it let a great deal of light in at night which made it difficult to sleep. The breakfast was just average and the coffee was undrinkable. Some sort... more

I read all the reviews and a lot of people RAVED about this B&B. I truly don't get it. There is nothing special about this place at all. It's ~15 minutes from the downtown Edinburgh area, which is fine, but just not that great of a location. The rooms are incredibly small and the shower was so tiny you could... more

We've just returned from a 3 day/2 night trip to Edinburgh. I booked the guest house based on reviews in Tripadvisor and could not have been more pleased. I prefer small family run accomodations and the Abbotsford was the best in my travels. The location is perfect, the house is a 10-12 minute walk to Princes street indeed, and the... more

Abbotsford was in Pilrig, Edinburgh, nice safe area with some parking. Host Paola was very pleasant, room was beautiful, as was our breakfast. There are good bus services at the end of the road. Abbotsford is proof you can enjoy Edinburgh without it being too expensive. more

I recently stayed in the Abbotsford Guest House and was delighted by every aspect. The house is very well maintained tasteful and very clean. The rooms are well equipped and beds are very comfortable. It is an easy walk into the centre of Edinburgh or just a hop skip and a jump on the bus. Paola is very welcoming and... more

We have just come back from our stay in Edinburgh after just getting married and we had a superb time there. A lot of it was due to Paola who runs this guesthouse, after initially booking here for august 1st we also booked a room last april so we could make wedding arrangements and this is where Paola helped us... more
