My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights and it was great! Room is clean, bed is comfy and most of all great breakfast selection. If you like to walking... it's only 15-20 mins away from the town center so we didn't bother to take the bus. The location is really great,quiet neighborhood. Wifi on the top floor don't... More

Just a one night stay to collect our son from University, the hotel absolutely met expectations. Friendly owners who were happy to discuss and book a local restaurant, sort out the taxi etc. My room was spotlessly clean, warm and with a comfy bed, and a good supply of tea bags and milk, yes, it was compact but having looked...

We have booked this hotel for 3 nights but spending one night her was more then enough. I don't understand why this hotel is so highly rated one tripadvisor. The walls are paperthin you hear everything the next door guests says and do. it's feels like you literally are sharing the room with them. And the noise when they shower... More

We enjoyed our night at this small, well located hotel very much. Good bus connections to centre of town and nice to be in a neighbourhood rather than the touristy areas Breakfast was very good. Handy to have a bar in the hotel for a night cap.

Cozy nice little place only 15 min walk from the city center (or more if u haven't experienced Edinburgh's hilly streets before). Great location for Arthur's seat walk. Rooms are small, but tidy and neat. It looks very traditional, so it's a plus for foreign travelers. The breakfasts are huge with a serious selection of hot and cold dishes. As... More

My family spent two nights at this B&B. It was a very nice experience. We were able to park our car for free right in front of the Inn. The room fit the three of us comfortably and the bathroom was huge. Breakfast was lovely each morning and the service was very good. The innkeepers were very helpful and more... More

Stayed there last night and had very enjoyable time. Location could seem a little far out and to be honest was further from the centre than I'd realised. That said, the hotel, room and staff was very warm and welcoming. The room was a good size, the bed large and although ensuite a little tight, more than suitable for us.... More

I chose the hotel Ceilidh-Donia based upon the great reviews it received on Tripadvisor, and I was NOT disappointed. Understand, I am fussy about the places I stay and have been known to walk out of hotels once I have seen my reserved room.

A most welcome retreat after a day walking about Edinburgh. An easy bus ride to the city center but tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. The hosts were most accommodating, the room comfortable, and the amenities more than adequate. Wholeheartedly recommended.
