This B&B is what you would expect from this kind of accommodation in a big city. The location is excellent, central but not too much in order to avoid noise. The rooms are big and clean and there is everything you need. The B&B is on the second floor and there is no lift; I think you just need to... More

We have just returned from a trip to Edinburgh and beyond, and stayed at 53 Frederick for 4 nights. You just can't beat the location for walking distance or short bus rides to all major sites. We loved walking the streets of Edinburgh night or day. The guesthouse rooms are plenty large, well appointed and lots of storage space to... More

We have just returned from a weekend away in Edinburgh, staying at 53 Frederick Street for two nights and have had a perfect weekend.

Traffic noise was no more than could be expected for a capital city. Beds were very comfortable, room spotless, and the welcome friendly. We were happy that... More
