We stayed in a recently refurbished room. We found the place to be clean. The owner was very hospitable. No complaints at all about the stay. The place was within walking distance of the main part of town. The breakfast is a little on the small side but we had a nice comfortable stay there. maybe a Scottish breakfast does... More

Stayed here with my husband last week and we absolutly enjoyed our trip. From the minute we checked in to when we checked out, we were made to feel right at home. The rooms were clean and newly renovated with a lovely elegant decor. The Blossom House had a beautiful bouquet of flowers with a card waiting in our room... More

I stayed at Blossom House with my Dad and sister on the Six Nations Scotland-France weekend and we had a really nice stay. The rooms had just been renovated and they were really nice. We were given a choice as we were the first guests to arrive and we were really happy with the room. The breakfast was fine, good... More

The room was very comfortable, it was all new, just redecorated. The place was quiet so we slepped well. The bus stop was just in front of the house, which was useful. And the people from the B&B were welcoming and helpful to me and my son ! I also enjoyed the cooked breakfast watching the garden in the glass... More

This is not a hotel which povides a cooked breakfast. Although I booked ensuite I had to wait 35 minutes to gain access to the communal toilet outside in the corridor. No bacon at breakfast - TWICE - One uncooked tomato overcooked sausage and one egg. That was the total breakfast. No toast available, no milk for the coffee .... More

I enjoyed spending a week at Blossom House for the second year. The rooms have been updated and the breakfast room was moved to the Conservatory. I took a friend on her first visit to Edinburgh. She loved the experience and the setting of Blossom House. Be prepared to eat a big breakfast (choices include: eggs cooked to order, sausage,... More

My friend and I spent six nights at Blossom House during spring break. We were delighted with the room, breakfast and over-all service. My friend had stayed here before, and I was pleased to find the accommodations as good as she had described. Our room was clean and well-appointed. The breakfast each day was wonderful--coffee, juices, milk, cereal, fruit, yogurt... More

Where do I start with this one? Well, our appalling experience at the Blossom House began when my friend (who I was staying with) rang to enquire about the price & location etc to which the proprietor got very unpleasant and suggested that "he put the phone down and think about it if he really wanted the room." Not very... More

Me and my girlfriend stayed here for four nights during the new year festivities as well as for sightseeing and eating great food. It is located about a 15 minute walk from the main station and we walked almost everyday into the centre. There are also regular bus services with a stop just outside. The staff is very friendly and... More

I stayed recently at this B&B as it was close to our Edinburgh student from the USA. It was one of the least expensive B&B's, but that was not my reason for staying...it was close to the Univ. It was relatively clean and acceptable for the price...nothing fancy. I had some miscommunications in making my reservation which was disappointing and... More
