It is the third time we go to Edinburgh and I can`t imagine staying in somewhere else! Near the city centre, good service, clean rooms... we feel wellcome at the Thrums. When possible they even upgrade us to large family rooms. Free car park and internet conection and a very nice breakfast leave you no doubt that this is the... more

we were put in the 'annex', it was cold, the rail in the wardrobe fell down, the shower rail was hanging off, and the toilet roll holder fell off whilst I was washing my hands, there was no door handle on the inside of the bathroom door. Only one screw held the inner door handle of the building on. If... more

We had stayed in hotels in this area previously but as they had no vacancies for the dates we were travelling we managed to find The Thrums. The staff was very friendly and accommodating right from the start. We were able to leave our baggage at the hotel having arrived many hours too early to check in and when we... more

Thrums is my favourite hotel in Edinburgh! I’ve stayed here quite a few times and wouldn’t even contemplate staying elsewhere, unless, perish forbid, they had no rooms available. And if that happened I’d spend my whole holiday wishing that I was staying at Thrums. It’s comfortable, friendly and laid-back and I really feel at home here, far more than I... more

I guess the pictures shown to the public were for the front rooms. We unfortunately had one in the back. Not as quaint, a little cramped. Bathroom excellent! Couldn't work the shower but that's my problem. I just had baths! Breakfast was slow, and I'm not sure if anyone in the UK can cook a soft poached egg. No bacon?... more

Very good hotel for the price. I contacted them directly and everything was well explained by phone. We stayed on a massive family room. Well located and just a few minutes walking to the centre. No complains at all. more

Stayed for 2 nights during the Fringe. The price was quite high compared to other, much nicer places in the rest of England & Scotland I stayed during my vacation. Hotel was clean, but appeared a little down trodden. Older furnishings, ripped carpet etc. Also, it had a rather unpleasant smell (old food, mold???). The shower was TERRIBLE- water alternated... more

Enjoyed this B&B for our base of operations on a golf holiday. Rooms we're well kept and the owners were most gracious - even after we had to slip into our window after hours having lost our room key! They were a little confused when we called in the morning asking them to let us out of our room ....... more

We booked this hotel on the strength of their website which shows a clean, well decorated hotel with a 3 star rating and the rates which seemed reasonable. On arriving we immediately noticed the musty, boiled cabbage smell and on being shown the rooms, the general shabbiness of the place. The rooms were furnished in the style of charity shop... more
