My mother stayed here when she came to Edinburgh for the night. Although I didn't stay here, I did go to the Blossom to have a look around and I was impressed. When we arrived to check my mum in we were greeted by a very cheery, polite female owner, who could not have been more helpful. Although my mother... More

This was advertised as 3 star accomadation within walking distance to the city centre. I would describe this as one star on a good bus route to the city centre. We stayed 2 nights in the 3 bedded room and i am sure it had not been refurbished. The en suite was a cupboard, but the room was clean. However... More

We have just stayed overnight at the Blossom and couldn't have got a more friendly reception. We booked a double room with ensuite and it was freshly painted and very clean. The ensuite was tiny but was modern and had good water pressure and plenty of hot water. (note: turn on water on left and then adjust temperature on right)..... More

As the single room I'd booked wasn't ready when I arrived they put me in a double at no extra cost. The room was gorgeous - nice decor, nice size, excellent en-suite. The cooked breakfast was poor: one sausage, one egg, one tomato and a handful of mushrooms. It was also rather off-putting as there were several flies buzzing around... More

My wife, adult daughter anI really enjoyed our stay at Blossom House. The people were friendly and we had great access to everywhere we were planning on going. We would gladly atari there again. Breakfast had a good mix, but not nearly as big as the Ulster Fry on Nothern Ireland.

We stayed here for 5 days and 4 nights and it was perfect. The location was brilliant, the room was lovely, the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. And being students we found it to be great value! Breakfast every morning as well. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and family and I would stay here again

We had previously stayed here in August 2011 whilst at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and decided to book early to make sure we got a place here again for our visit in 2012, so booked in January 2012. We had to change our booking dates a couple of months later, and they were fully accomodating with no problem changing things.... More

Rooms were newly refurbished with this fab modern relaxing theme running through this cute family run B&B. The staff/family were most welcoming and charming. Being a vegan, the staff were able to accommodate my breakfast needs. Although located on the main street heading into Edinburgh City Center, the room I stayed in was quiet and peaceful. I loved Edinburgh, I... More

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
