People should bear in mind that this is a Guest House and not some sort of fancy hotel. I stayed here for one night for a central location for a good price for a single room. At the price i paid, as cheap as a Travelodge or similar I have very little to complain about. Check in is nice and... More

What a dive !! I would suggest they write thier reviews. We arrived about 8:30PM, rang the bell and were greeted to the horrrendous view of very badly maintained stairwell containg a pile of rubbish. I was so stunned and shocked that I said to my husband ..Oh my god, I think we are in a backpackers or a brothel.!!... More

Nice guesthouse in great location just off princes street, ten minute walk to Edinburgh castle. Stayed for hogmanay, was really close to all of the events. Breakfast included, free WiFi. Cleaner through some clothing that was in a bag by accident but they took money off the bill. Very friendly staff. Rooms small but its all you need when sightseeing More

I stayed at the Castle View Guest House the night before a meeting in Edinburgh. We have very limited travel budgets and the reviews weren't bad and it was very cheap. I paid £39 for a single room with private bathroom. I arrived at around 9.30pm (I flew up to Edinburgh after work), the remote unlock on the front door... More

We blindly used a website that makes late room arrangements, looking only for "good rates". We were so surprised when we arrived. We couldn't have found a room we would have liked better! If at all possible, try to get the castle room, I fell asleep in the bay window bed looking at the lights of Edinburgh Castle and the... More
