This was such a beautiful guest house. Breakfast was superb, felt so relaxed and well looked after by the owner and the choice on offer was wonderful. Our room was stunning, there was absolutely everything you could wish for in the room, and we just loved the huge beds! We were so suprised as to how quickly we could get... More

We chose this B&B based on the very good reviews on tripadvisor and were not dissappointed with our choice. The atmosphere in the house is friendly and you feel welcome as soon as you step in trough the door. The living room is especially nice since noone used it beside us. We could sit there in the evening with a... More

23 Mayfield is set in a beautiful part of the city. Close enough to walk into Edinburgh in 15 minutes or hop on the bus (bus stop outside the premises) and be in town in 5 minutes. Ross certainly is a genuine host, he enjoys nothing better than making sure you have the best stay possible. From the warm welcome,... More

23 Mayfield is a small B&B about 1 1/2 miles from the city center of Edinburgh. There were six of us and cab-sharing made getting around very cheap (cabs are generally cheap because of the short distances). Very comfortable, and helpful owners Ross and Mary answered our many questions and made our touring of Edinburgh very easy. And the breakfasts... More

During our three weeks of travel in Ireland and Scotland we were fortunate to stay at many high quality/rated B&B's. We would put 23 Mayfield right at the top of this list! The B&B interior is tasteful elegance. We stayed in the Grand Jacobean room. It was beautifully decorated and all the little details to make your stay special were... More

This place has character, charm and class all rolled into one. The rooms are individually decorated to a very high standard and the breakfast was amazing!. I found the owner and staff to be very friendly and helpful. There was a good mix of non-UK tourists and couples just up for a romantic weekend in one of the most beautiful... More

What an amazing B&B, nicer than any I have ever been at. Ross and his staff are terrific but his five star skills as a chef truly shine at breakfast which are worth the visit alone. The room we stayed in was flawless in both comfort and beauty. Well worth twice the price. And Ross's every recommedation was a pleasure.... More

Ross thank you for making our Edinburgh experience so memorable :) We slept blissfully in the unbelievably huge comfortable bed - the room and bathroom were perfect - loved the shower. Breakfast was delicious and beautifully presented and the restaurants you recommended - Salisbury Arms and Voujon served great food as well as being good value. More

Wow! Stood in awe upon opening door to our room! So big, and fantastically decorated, just like a queen's room! And smelled fantastic too! The aroma of lavender quickly relaxing me. Service was equally fantastic. We arrived very early in the day, and left our bags. After a cold wet day of sightseeing, came back to the fantastic room with... More

We selected 23 Mayfield based on the excellent reviews on Tripadvisor. The number of five star ratings speak for themselves. To have this many reviews and only a handful rate this establish four stars is incredible. You have to stay there to understand why Ross the Proprietor gets these well deserved accolades. You truly do feel like you are staying... More
