Once again revisited Garfield Guest house. Martin met us for an early afternoon check in and arranged an early breakfast as roadworks were slowing traffic to get us to a hospital appointment on time the following morning. Dined out at Mamma Roma at the top of Leith Walk. Road works made access quite difficult but the trusty road map and... more

We have had perfect communication before arrival, very friendly welcome, good room with clean and modern bathroom, good bed a beautifull view to the centre of Edinburgh and the location is beetween the centre and the Overseas Terminal that you can reach many attractions easily. Several bus stops are around. They have a full breakfast of good quality included. If... more

The Garfield guest house was great. Read the positive reveiws and not the stupid petty ones posted (of which are few and far between). We were greeted by friendly Martin and even offered a refreshment on arrival as our room was being finished off. We got tea and coffee and used the fast computer in the stylish breakfast room. The... more

I stayed in Room 7 of the Garfield Guest House for 2 days this month. Martin, the owner of the guest house, is very friendly, and the staff members are also very nice. I had some problems with my plane reservations and Martin was very accommodating about changing my reservations at his establishment. The staff also arranged for me to... more

Excellent breakfast after a good nights sleep. The room we stayed in overlooked the park with a excellent view of the castle. We would stay again without a doubt. more

We had a great stay in Edinburgh and Garfield was exactly what we had wished for. The service was fantastic, our room was clean, modern and just what we needed, the bed comfortable, the breakfast hot and tasty and the free internet was really handy. I would recommend Garfield to anyone planning a trip to Edinburgh. more

I chose to stay at the Garfield based on reviews I had read on this website. All seemed very positive, except for one, which I made the mistake of ignoring - I think we must have been given the same room which was positioned between the kitchen and the stairs on the ground floor as my experience was very similar.... more

Unfortunately, I have to agree with the recent reviews. Garfield Guest house is in a great location and looks OK, but it is not a pleasant experience staying there. Martin was friendly when I spoke to him on the phone and greeted us when we arrived, but then we never saw him again. We spent 2 nights staying here after... more
