My wife and I spent a single night here. Owner Irene greeted us warmly on arrival. Our bedroom was well furnished and comfortable, with the bed one of the best I've had in any hotel-type accommodation. The ensuite bathroom was small, but adequate for a short stay. Decor is old-fashioned, but not old - the whole place is in good... More

This really is a superb find, and I am so glad we chose to stay here for our Hogmanay trip to Edinburgh! We arrived late on our first night and were immediately struck by the beauty of the décor inside Number 45. We were received warmly by Irene with information on our room and how to get into town via... More

My husband and I stayed here while visiting Edinburgh. Irene and Bill are the perfect hosts! The breakfast was good and our room was wonderful! My husband and I don't mind walking, so we walked all the way to the Royal Mile to enjoy the Festival (about 1 - 2 miles) and back again. There is also a bus route... More

Number 45 is a nice bed and breakfast on Gilmour Road. My single room was small but it is just perfect if all you need is a nice, clean and quiet place to sleep. I had to go down the hall to the bathroom, but the bathrooms are individualy assigned. I did not get to try the breakfast, because I... More

The family room was excellent, and Mr Bill and Mrs Helene were warm, friendly an very helpful. We had booked through Scottish Accomodation and they were not only kind enough to point out that we had been overcharged but also went out of the way to get us our refund. The location is excellent and the breakfast outstanding. We will... More

No 45 is a great B&B, the location is excellent with a short walk to the buses which run every few minutes. You would be silly to try and get around Edinburgh any other way. 3.20 GBP for all day travel. The room was very comfortable and well furnished. The only complaint would be the size of the bathroom, it... More

Purpose of our visit was to drop my son off at Uni and tried to get B & B near his campus but no-one would book us in for just the one night. Tried No 45 and it was no problem. We booked in at 12 which gave us the day in Edinburgh to enjoy the Duathlon in Holyrood Park... More

This is a well-run bed and breakfast with friendly owners and personal service who will adapt breakfast to suit (both in terms of time and contents- they will even do vegan!). I have tried a couple of places in this area in the similar price bracket and this is my favourite. Note some of the other ones are on the... More

The room was comfortable, spacious, and clean. The breakfast was great - in fact, I miss it a lot :) A choice of cereals, fruit followed by a cooked breakfast and toast. I highly recommend poached egg, bacon, tomato and toast. I loved the communal table in the dining room and met a few interesting people during my stay who... More
