Good GRIEF what to write about this place. Well here is what I wrote in the guest book: "Interesting place, shame about the breakfast." I was being *very* kind. I stayed here for two nights during the Edinburgh Festival and it was appalling. The rates were very high and the owners were clearly cashing in on the Festivals - I... more

My husband & I stayed for 3 nights here - our room was large and the bathroom was a good size. We found it to be clean, the room was made up daily & our tea/coffee cups cleaned each day. Breakfast was good, we had ample to eat - we did not like the cleaning up of the other tables... more

This is the second year in a row that I've stayed at the International Guest House. The owners are very nice and helpful. The rooms are clean and the breakfast is quite hearty. It was in a great location for me because I was attending a conference at Edinburgh University campus next to Arthur's Seat. The city is a mile... more

We stayed during early February. Room was extremely cold the first evening - heat was only turned on during the evening and morning hours. Mattresses were hard; pillows were thin. Towels were even thinner - I would be ashamed to give them to my guests. No soap in bathroom. Phones had to be turned on by staff to be active... more

The B&B was easy to find, I was greeted nicely by the landlady, yet when I got into my room - it was cold and had not been cleaned properly (there was still plastic rubbish under the bed and a used cotton bud was draped clearly visible on the main heater). It was bitterly cold at night in the room... more

When I arrived at this hotel, I was promptly greeted and given my key. Unfortunately my room was up a couple of flights of stairs, I was limping (with a foot injury) and had a few pieces of luggage. There was no offer to carry my bags for me - it was my problem. Another customer offered to help me... more

Could not fault the cleanliness of the room etc. It was up 2 flights of stairs, no lift! Breakfast was pretty meagre, but acceptable. 5% charge for credit or debit card payment. Breakfast was8 - 9am even on Sunday and you felt as though you were a bit of a nuisance being there. Plates etc cleared immediately drinks gone if... more

MOSTLY pleasant stay here for 6 nights in single ensuite room. About 20 minute walk to Royal Mile, but frequent easy bus service, stop very near to B&B. In general fairly clean, quiet and comfortable room in older building, bath fairly recently updated. Mid-stay one day their help apparently didn't come in to work so hosts did room cleaning and... more

I have just returned from a three night stay at the International Guest House. I found it spotlessly clean and well maintained. The owners were welcoming and friendly. The Guest House is only about 1.5 miles from the City Centre and there are numerous buses which go straight to the City Centre from almost outside the door of the guest... more
