This was our first stop in Scotland and we were warmly welcomed on arrival. Our room wasn't quite ready as we arrived early from the airport. We were offered tea and coffee with baked shortbread and other treats while we waited for the room. It's all been mentioned before and it's all true: - Location is excellent - across from... More

My wife and I spent 3 nights at the Elmview in May 2012. The breakfasts from Nici are to die for, really a great start to a full day of sightseeing. The room we had was one of the most spacious and best deals we have had anywhere in Europe. Two of the top 10 pubs are within a few... More

We spent 4 nights in Room 3 in early May 2012. Pictures do not do it justice, the room is huge and the bathroom is enormous too. Elmview is totally luxurious. It is quiet at night, the neighborhood is a very nice area. Everything is spotless and there are so many nice touches, like a drawer full of things you... More

Nici and Robin are gracious hosts that go out of their way to make your stay one that you will always remind you of your wonderful stay. The breakfasts were superb and our room was very comfortable and any thing we could need was readily available. Spotless! The Links across the way offered afternoon fun. We gained insight and ideas... More

Robin and Nici were wonderful hosts and made our stay in Edinburgh very comfortable. The breakfast was delicious and filling, with a new special every day. Robin had some great stories for us while we enjoyed our breakfast. We were greeted on arrival with tea and baked goods. My Mom and I were impressed with how spotless the room was.... More

We knew right away that we had made the right choice when our query about room availability was answered promptly and included details sorely needed re: how to get to Elmview from the Edinburgh airport. By the way we choose the local bus which was waiting at arrivals as described by Nici and Robin and involved such a short neighborhood... More

Robin and Nikki were exceptional hosts in a perfect location near enough to walk through the beautiful park to Edinburgh city centre. The breakfasts were amazing and Nikki's daily specials and her porridge were out of this world!!!

Wonderful hospitality. The hosts are delightful and make everyone feel comfortable at the common breakfast table. Helpful about parking and walking or driving routes. Comfy, bright rooms. Nice touches of tea, water, sherry, biscuits. Really everything is just lovely.

This will be the 2nd time my husband and I have stayed at Elmview and it was just as wonderful the 2nd time round. You couldn't do better or have better hosts than Robin and Nici. On our arrival we were warmly greeted by Nici like old friends. She took us to our room and within minutes brought us a... More

The owners were very helpful and greeted us with a decanter of sherry and fresh flowers for our room. The location was perfect - an easy walk to most of the tourist sites in Edinburgh, and across the street from at park with a par 3 free play golf course (clubs available). The accommodations were comfortable and clean. The breakfasts... More
