My husband and I stayed for 1 night in this not terribly impressive looking modern building. However, the 70s decor on the outside is misleading. Inside the reception and lobby is fresh and contemporary. On arrival we were greeted with a warm welcome, useful information about the university campus and a special security key that gives 24 hour access. We... More

Rooms fine and functional, comfy bed, digital TV, hot shower and very good breakfast served by nice staff. Anyone visting Edinburgh to view University with sons or daughters as I was I would thoroughly recommend... More

Beautiful territory, good breakfast, close to Holyrood and bus stop. Comfortable beds, big bathroom with rain-shower. But very noisy in room on the first floor because of 24-hours reception and very cold, my child became ill. All photos is true.

We selected this accommodation due to its vicinity to the city centre, the quiet green surrounding and the Holyrood Park's vicinity for a climbing experience, being still within the city area, and based mainly on the reasonable price. Edinburgh is very expensive throughout the year and in particular during August, due to the milder weather, the Festival, the Military Tattoo... More

I had a great experience at the Masson House.
