My wife and I and another couple spent 2 nights at Elmview and loved it. The hosts were quite cordial and very informative! The
rooms were large, clean and very comfortable! Breakfasts were
delicious as there were 4 or 5 choices and a special every morning. We spent 17 days in Scotland and Ireland and the
Elmview was certainly top rated by us over all other lodgings.
We already recommeded it to a couple we met in Inverness and
would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Edinburgh.

Robin and Nici were very attentive and knowledgeable about Edinburgh and its environs ..we went out and about with a fantastic breakfast under our belts. The accommadation was superb and it added very much to our stay in this lovely city.

We only had time to stay one night, but it was an absolutely lovely night. Robin and Nici have thought of everything- lists of recommended restaurants close by, in-room entertainment (like you'd need any in Edinburgh!), good snacks and even some welcoming sherry. Our room was beautiful, with the biggest bathroom we saw on our whole trip through the UK and lovely furnishings, clean and bright but still unique. Family-style breakfast in the morning let us chat with our fellow guests while Nici gave us several options for our meal. My french toast was amazing and it was so nice to have options, as the full English and Scottish breakfasts we had everywhere else were beginning to wear me down!
It's a beautiful house and an easy walk to the heart of everything- we covered the castle, the Royal Mile, Princes Street and more in our one afternoon there simply by walking from Elmview.
We will definitely go back to Edinburgh and back to Elmview, I can't think of a better way to experience their beautiful city.

  • Liked — The beautiful room and attention to detail, they've really thought of everything.
  • Disliked — Honestly, we have no complaints.

Just back from a trip through the highlands and saved the best for last by staying at the Elmview for our last three night in Edinburgh. Great location, comfortable spacious accommodation , great resources avaiuable helpful advice at any time and the best breakfast in Scotland -- everytihng from finn and haddie to the full scottish breakfast but each morning we had interesting and tasty specials offered.. Highly recommended. Especially important for us was free parking . So we were able to stay in the heat of the city and park free. jerry and ann In toronto

A truly marvelous stay - the rooms were huge, quiet and clean .
Wonderful linens - sherry carafe kept filled during our stay - excellent choice of breakfast meals - owners were extremely helpful - cannot think of any room for improvement.
