My wife and I stayed at A-Haven Townhouse in Edinburgh for a long weekend in April 2012. Prior to our arrival we were in contact with David via email and he was very accommodating and welcoming. He gave advice on taking a cab from the station and greeted us with a big smile on our midnight arrival. The atmosphere of... More

On arriving late we were welcomed by David and team.They were all really helpful and knowledgeable. Lovely old house. Situated in Leith about 5 mins drive form city centre. Not quite walk-able but here are plenty of buses and David knows all the details. The room was well presented though a little tight in places due to the huge and... More

We first stayed at a-haven guest house for our first visit to Edinburgh and we loved every minute of it from the warm welcome showed by David and his staff, right up to the fantastic breakfast cosy rooms and ideal location and excellent value for money. Dave and his staff can not do enough for you and we are always... More

We stayed for 4 nights at the A-Haven Townhouse over the May Bank Holiday weekend. David and his staff were very welcoming and helpful in regards of planning our trips. He even got us discount tickets for the bus tours! The house itself is in a very easy reach to the town centre by local buses. We had a single... More

Arriving late, David was completely accomodating with secure parking still available. This was a weekend away for my husband's birthday and we couldn't have picked a better place to stay. The room was typical of a period building and spotlessly clean, hot shower and excellent sound proofing. Plenty of tea and coffee making facilities and all the other amenties you... More

Booked this hotel last minute as my partner had suprised me to go and see the pandas as an xmas present. Looked around at lots of hotels and bed and breakfasts but all were fully booked or majorly out of my price range. I came across this hotel which had great reviews at such a good price. Made a phone... More

This wee gem of a place makes you feel as if you are staying with a friend rather than in a guest house. David is completely welcoming and nothing is too much trouble for him. We arrived several hours before check in time, but as the room was ready our bag was taken upstairs and we were able to leave... More

Just arrived back home after spending 2 nights at the A-Haven. Fantastic value for money. Room very comfortable and clean. Breakfast excellent. Location fantastic for Edinburgh City Centre. I walked to Princes Street in 20 minutes. Host David could not have done anything more , very attentive and knowledgeable and nothing was too much trouble. I will certainly return with... More

When I say I'm not sure how this place stays in business, I mean that in a good way... incredible value for a small but very well turned-out room in this guest house. OK, it's not central, but a 20 minute walk or 10 min bus ride (and it's on the N11 night bus route) is not a problem. Clean,... More
