We were warmly welcomed and given helpful information about finding our way in the city without a car. The location is terrific, and we especially appreciated that the guest house is off busy Dalkeith Road and therefore quieter and more relaxing. We had a wonderful double room, tastefully decorated and very comfortable. Thanks for 3 wonderful nights in Edinburgh!

We spent 3 nights at this fabulous B&B and were very impressed with it. We received a very warm welcome and Gerry gave us really helpful information about using the local buses (the day ticket for £3.50 is great value) places to eat etc. (hint-when using the buses you need correct money as no change is given).

My husband, teenage daughter, and I stayed at the Gil Dun for three nights. Gerry and Billy were so welcoming and helpful. The B & B is situated off Dalkeith Road in an area that has a number of other B & B's. I can't imagine any of them being as nice as this one. It's actually on a little... More

My wife and I stay there for three days in March 2012 and were pleased with the great service, great rooms and loving attention to detail by Gerard. The breakfast was great and filling and the information on local sites to see was given with exact directions, maps being available for use and bus service literally around the corner from... More

Had a wonderful stay here! Good price, great rooms, super clean. Gerry was terrific, even loaning us his cell phone to make a call to the states when our debit card didn't work. Located in a nice quiet neighborhood, just off a main street with excellent bus service or a nice stroll to the old town part of the city.... More
