Spent 4 nights at Gladstone House. The whole experience was excellent. The accommodation was well maintained and beautifully decorated. The hosts (Hamish & Tom) were very friendly, relaxed and helpful and the breakfasts were a great way to start the day. It was really handy being able to park our car on site and it was a very easy walk... More

We had two nights at Gladstone House. The room was well appointed, quiet and overlooked a small garden at the rear of the building; very nice. Hamish and Tom were great hosts and really looked after us. Dining room was great with a good selection for breakfast. Gladstone House is about twenty mins walk from the city and about 100yds...

Had a lovely 2 day stay at Gladstone House over last weekend. We were allocated Room 6 which had a lovely comfy feeling about it, was very tastefully decorated and was most comfortable. It turned out to be the perfect base for our touristy break in Edinburgh. We were able to enjoy a beautiful walk down to Hollyrood via the... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our three nights at Gladstone House. The owners, Tom and Hamish, were obliging and helpful at all times. The breakfasts were excellent as was the dining room itself. We were very comfortable in our top floor double (which in fact turned out to be a 'triple') - with a good view of Arthur's Seat. Gladstone House was... More

Well presented house with grand Victorian character. Spotlessly clean, large bedroom with ensuite, comfortable bed, excellent breakfast in pleasant dining room. Friendly, informative hosts. We found the main road a little noisy the first night - not used to city life! More

Positive: I liked the view out my window of Arthur's Seat. The location is within walking distance of the town centre. It's a nice old house. Negative: One of the owners was quite rude and surly, but perhaps he was just having a bad day since most other people seem to have had a good experience here. One of the... More

This review is a bit of a mystery to us. This is because in Nov 2009 our skylight room became a storeroom and no longer a guest room. So wherever this traveller was in August 2010 to observe the rather alarmingly described “Death Trap”, it could not have been Gladstone House. We can only assume that some confusion has arisen...

Around 20 - 30 minutes walk from Edinburgh Waverley station, Gladstone House was located on a main road overlooking Arthur's Seat. As our train arrived early in the day of check in, we emailed Tom and Hamish to ask if dropping our bag would be ok and within minutes a confirmation told us that it was no problem and they... More
