Fraoch has its own style which I find attractive, comfortable and a little different. Gareth is a "natural professional" whose friendly attention to guests is exemplary. The location is "outer-central" which I like - you can park at the door, get a bus easily, walk to Princes St in 15 minutes, and also have the more relaxed ambience around Leith... more

I stay in Edinburgh on business often and I sometimes have to change my regular lodgings because hotels and apartments seem to fill up when the festival or other events are on.

Fraoch House in Pilrig St is a well located,. smart B&B just off Leith Walk, with its excellent connections to the city centre. I stayed there first in August 2006 and again in February 2007, and on my second visit, it was obvious the proprietors' efforts to transform the hotel rooms had paid off handsomely. You get all the basics... more
