This was one of the cosiest hotel rooms I have ever stayed in. It seemed a pity that we used this room as a base and only slept there. The ameneties were plush and the room was well decorated. It was a 5min stroll from the station and about a 2min walk from the city centre (theatre end). The staff... more

The golden question? Would I stay again at Windsor House (sister of Lantern House) again? Everytime. It suits me down to the ground. I'd rather eat out. The no breakfast thing really helps me. I don't want a traditional breakfast. There are loads of places around here and further afield. You are only 5 mins walk from Waverley and the... more

We stayed at Lantern Guest House for one night before departing on a tour of the highlands in the morning. The location was great, only a few minutes walk from the city centre and we were able to park easily nearby. We checked in at reception and our room was in another house they owned down the street.

Stayed at the Lantern House with a friend in december 2008, and we found the place to exceed all our expectations.

We stayed at lantern guest house for a night and found it to be excellent. The room was clean, comfortable and cosy. It was well equipped and modern but still with a traditional feel. The hotel was very central as it was only a short walk from Waverly station. Very good value for money and we would not hesitate to... more

After researching the net and reading reviews my friend and I chose this guesthouse for our 2-day trip in Edinburgh in May'08. We had a great experience - the location is excellent, close to the city centre yet quiet; room was quite spacious (compared to other places we stayed at in Scotland), bathroom – clean and sufficient, hot water at... more
