This is a very nice guest house located within walking distance (or a short taxi ride) from many of the main sight-seeing locations in Edinburgh. The host was very friendly and accomodating and provided lots of useful sight-seeing tips. The guest house was very clean and seemed to have been recently re-furbished. The breakfast room was very nice and clean... More

Conveniently situated near bus route into Town and near a main road with restaurants. Could walk to Princes Street at a stretch. Large, comfortable room and bathroom which was warm. Free Wi Fi link, nice breakfast. Parking was on street, free evenings and week ends but £1 an hour otherwise.

We are always been given a very warm welcome by the owner Stephen who is always helpful and cheerful. There are plenty of great places to drink and eat close by and I would recommend this guest house for singles/couples... More

I was really happy to have found this guest house. We enjoyed our 4 night stay here.

I found The Robertson's location absolutely perfect and the Bruntsfield area of Edinburgh is ideal for the Meadows and getting around the city centre, very friendly staff always helps!
