Priestville Guest House - Edinburgh

Nice room and bathroom but a strenuous climb up narrow steps to reach them, especially with luggage. Good breakfast.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Our host, Colin was terrific. Very helpful with local information, made good breakfasts, and even provided a lunch for a bus tour one day. I would definitely stay again and recommend to friends.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We loved our stay at the Priestville Bed and Breakfast. Colin did everything he could to make our stay great. He gave us great advice for restaurants, a helpful map for locating the bus lines and I feel personally was such an excellent resource. We really enjoyed our stay. This is in a nice quiet neighborhood and we did the shared bathroom which did […] not seem to be an issue for showers, etc. Read more

Good service, Colín is a good host

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Our room was comfortable, but quite small. Though the shared bathroom was a nice one, we thought we'd booked an en suite room. Read details carefully; not all rooms are en suite. Host recommended several restaurants; the two we tried were excellent. Easy to walk to Edinburgh city center; also bus stop right at the corner.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Extremely helpful, freindly. Walking distance to the city or bus is just at the corner. Highly recommend .

Genuine Expedia guest review

The host is excellent, very kind and informative. I m not BB person since most BBs do not have Gym n swimming and also everything comes in matchbox sizes. Since Breakfast is excellent, i really needed a Gym. The hotel is close 4 great mountains. So that solved my problem.

Greeted at door and given information about the area and the guest house, Proprietors were very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was wonderful. Room was clean and neat. Was about a mile to city center and a very nice walk. Near several restaurants and pubs.Would definitely stay here again.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The host was very friendly and helpful with local information, restaurants and tours. Quiet location that was a at least a 20 minute walk from the main area of Edinburgh or alternatively there is a regular bus service. There are stairs to navigate up to the rooms which may be difficult with heavy bags. The room was light and clean. The full breakfast […] was excellent. We really enjoyed our 2 nights nad can highly recommend this B&B.. Read more

Colin is an amazing host! The location of the guest house is really great, just a mile away from the Edinburgh Castle. But that's not the the best thing about Priestville; the care and the love that you get from the hosts there is the best hospitality experience you can get in the UK. Colin gives you a great perspective about the location and how you […] can find your way to the centre and he even set out a a little tour for me and my wife to travel and 'experience Scotland' from Stirling to Perth and back and it was a truly amazing drive, so thankyou Colin!

Trina and Colin were great! We were greated with a smile and a map. They had restaurant ideas and bus routes all ready for us. (We used Buses 30 and 33 mainly - £3.50 for unlimited day pass). Shared bathroom with other guests, but sink in our room which was great! Breakfast was good. Got to try a little Haggis. Room had just enough space, bed was very […] large (two beds pressed together) which was great for me and my room mate. Had a great. Stay! Read more

Enjoyed it very much. We were given lots of information on the sights to see and buses to use. The breakfast was very good with lots of choice and offer of more if you wanted. Tea making facilities with variety of biscuits which is good when you come in from touring around. As we enjoy walking the Guest House was close enough to walk wherever we wanted […] to go. What would be good would be some background music when having breakfast otherwise no issues we would certainly go back. Read more

We got a warm welcome but were spoken to abruptly by the lady owner when we dared to mention the early departure specified on the website. We had trouble with the outside door lock when we returned from our evening out. The bedside alarm in our room was running an hour late which caused us problems - we changed it to prevent other guests having a similar […] problem - we arrived late to our breakfast which seemed to have been reheated and was not nice at all. We couldn't wait to leave. Read more

great value for money, Colin and Trina were great hosts! would definitely go back again..

On arrival Colin was very helpful with maps and tips to help us with the location of buses and restaurants etc. Trina also welcomed us and their son. We stayed in room 5 it was huge, with a separate bathroom. Breakfast on both days were perfect and Colin was always on hand to help us. Towels changed and room tidied after our first night. I booked through […] expedia which cost more so send Colin an email for a good rate. Will definitely go again. Read more

Lovely guest house, very friendly owners. Excellent accommodation and the price is very reasonable. Our bed was very comfortable, the room was lovely and large, had everything we needed. Breakfast of porridge and scrambled egg and smoked salmon was delicious. Very accommodating for my husband who had to leave at 5.00am.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Quiet, clean, comfortable and conveniently located guesthouse close to Edinburgh centre. Ensuite bathroom fully equipped with generous shower. Buffet breakfast included a range of cereals, fruits and juices. Individually prepared freshly brewed coffee. Menu options offered for hot breakfast included haggis, smoked salmon or Scottish breakfast. Smoked […] salmon was perfect and my husband received a "haggis" bonus that he thoroughly enjoyed. Unexpected health event stalled our travel plans and we have been absolutely overwhelmed by Colin and Trina's kindness and generosity to us during what has been a very stressful period. I cannot thank them enough for caring for my partner during this time. Read more

The owner was really helpful and nice. He recommended a really good restaurant - and we enjoyed it. We stayed just one night. The room and bedding was clean and the only thing that didn't work was one of the bedlamps. Didn't need it anyway. Breafast was above average for B&B. Again the owner was very helpful enjoyed chatting.

A lovely hotel that made me feel lmost as comfortable as being at home. The owners are lovely and very attentive in offering a personalise service to their guests! Room was comfortable and though it wasn't en-suite it was nice to have a sink in the room. Breakfast was beautiful, with plenty of options - highly recommend the scrambled eggs! Overall, […] I would give it a 4/5 and would definitely highly recommend it! Read more

Lovely place and quiet. Owners are very nice and helpful. Breakfasts are very good. Quiet a few good restaurants around the guesthouse. 20min walk to city centre. Right next to Holyrood Park.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Our Double Room with a shared bathroom was fantastic. Both the bedroom and bathroom were cosy and clean. We never had to wait to use the shared bathroom which was great. Location of the guest house is perfect. Short walk into town, or pay £1.20 for a bus. Simple and very easy. The breakfast's were amazing, and plenty full. Try the haggis, its a must! […] You wont go hungry trust me. Colin (the owner) was a lovely man who helped us out whenever we needed directions, or advice on what to see and do. I would stay at this guest house again for sure! 100%. Read more

the owner Colin could not have been more helpfull. the breakfasts were awesome , he even packed us a roll and chocolate for a bus trip we booked. 10 min by bus into town and 5 min walk to nearest pub which had great meals.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The owners, Colin and Trina were very welcoming and helpful. The house is a big old character-filled villa. The room was comfortable with TV and video player. Breakfast was delicious and cooked by Colin. He provides guests with a map showing all local amenities, restaurants and shops, which was very useful. The house is a very pleasant 30 minute walk […] (I am a slow walker) from the Royal Mile through Holyrood Park. You emerge from the Park opposite Holyroodhouse Palace, where there is a good cafe and free toilets. The Palace itself is well worth visiting to see Mary Queen of Scots' appartments. The Indian restaurant, Kismot, was quite close to the B-and-B and was superb, with friendly staff and excellent food. The National Museum of Scotland was excellent, very good on a rainy day. We would definitely go back to Edinburgh, a wonderful city, and stay at Priestville. I have already reccommended it to a friend. Read more

We stayed at Priestville for 3 nights and we couldn't recommend this b&b enough to anyone. Great location and great service contributed to a great stay in Edinburgh. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Genuine Expedia guest review

A beautiful Victorian house with many decorative features to enjoy is the location for a highly recommended guest house in the suburbs just 15 minutes by bus to the heart of Edinburgh. Colin & Trina were very good hosts and freely provided lots of information on all our questions about travel, where to eat, vistis or general information about the city. We […] can highly recommend haggis topped with two poached eggs for breakfast - a real winner. We'll be back! Read more

Really lovely hotel, Colin the owner was very welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was brilliant, and the room was really clean with a very comfortable bed. About a 20min walk from the city center, but in a really lovely area and very regular buses. Would definitely book here again for a return trip.

Genuine Expedia guest review

I have rarely left a hotel/b. & b. with as much regret as I left this one. It is such a pleasure to find hotel owners who are in the right job and are really good at hospitality (without being intrusive)! This b. & b. is about two miles south of Edinburgh city centre, but connected to it by four suburban bus routes which run frequently. The rooms are […] tastefully set up in a beautiful old house and all necessary amenities are supplied. There is nothing I could have wished for beyond what is supplied, and the level of comfort was amply sufficient for my middle-of-the-road tastes. Various minor but useful extra services were provided without charge on request or even without a request, such as printing out an on-line boarding pass and providing a roll or scone for dinner.

We had a shared bathroom room, but it was fantastic value. We had Room 3, which is huge. Great welcome from the owner. Excellent breakfast. No complaints at all. It takes about 30 mins to walk into the centre of the city, otherwise you can catch a bus very easily.

Das Haus an sich ist ein sehr schönes, altes Stadthaus in einer attraktiven und ruhigen Gegend. Das Stadtzentrum ist problemlos mit dem Bus zu erreichen (der Gastwirt hilft hier gerne weiter...) - im Umkreis von wenigen Gehminuten befinden sich aber auch einige empfehlenswerte Restaurants. Das Gästehaus bietet ca. 2 Parkplätze unmittelbar am Haus (bei […] etwa 7 Zimmern), die Chance in der unmittelbaren Nachbarschaft einen freien Parkplatz am Straßenrand zu finden (kostenlos, ohne Zeitbeschränkung) sind jedoch hoch. Die Einrichtung der Zimmer ist ok (z.B. Flachbildfernseher), das Mobiliar macht jedoch schon einen etwas älteren Eindruck. Die Bettdecke entspricht meiner Meinung nach nicht mehr den aktuellen Standards: Eine etwas fleckige (wohl frisch gewaschen, Flecken aber noch leicht sichtbar) Tagesdecke liegt auf einer sauberen, dünnen Leinendecke (im Gegensatz zu einer "normalen" Bettdecke); auch der Teppich im Zimmer hat schon bessere Zeiten gesehen. Das Bad und die Dusche waren zwar auch schon etwas älter aber sauber und ansonsten ok. Das Frühstück hat einen etwas zwiespältigen Eindruck hinterlassen - der Gastwirt hat beispielsweise nicht bemerkt, dass einige Brötchen schon etwas alt waren. Der Gastwirt ist allgemein sehr hilfsbereit, und es gibt kostenloses Wi-fi. Read more

Wir haben eine Woche im Priestfield Guesthouse verbracht und diese voll und ganz genossen! Die Lage ist prima; man kann von dort ganz schnell in die Innenstadt kommen. Beim Check-In wurden wir mit einer vom Besitzer (Colin) ergänzten Karte von Edinburgh ausgestattet, auf der sogar notiert war, welche Busse wir nehmen können, was sie kosten oder wo wir […] gut essen oder einkaufen können. Der Eingangsbereich ist ausgestattet mit Karten der Umgebung, Flyern und vielen verschiedenen Informationen. Auch ein PC mit Internetanschluss steht jedem Gast zur freien Nutzung zur Verfügung. Unser Zimmer mit Bad war immer sehr sauber und jeden Tag gab es frische Handtücher. Jeden Abend konnten wir für den kommenden Tag aus einer großen Auswahl von Gerichten unser Frühstück wählen, welches immer frisch zubereitet wurde und fantastisch schmeckte. Colin war sogar so aufmerksam und hat auf meine vielen Lebensmittelallergien Rücksicht genommen und entsprechend eingekauft und gekocht; ohne mir dafür extra Kosten zu berechnen. Wann immer wir Fragen oder Probleme hatten, haben die Besitzer uns geholfen und beraten. Alles in allem war es wunderbar und wir würden jederzeit das Priestfield Guesthouse einem Sternehotel vorziehen, da es bei Colin und seiner Frau sehr freundlich und herzlich zugeht und man sich wie ein Teil der Familie fühlen kann, wenn man möchte.

Ruhig gelegen; nicht weit von der Innenstadt, gute Busverbindung.

Ble tatt imot av ekteparet som driver hotellet. Matlukten er det første som slår en idet man kommer inn. Ellers er det rent og ordentlig, og veldig god frokost. Colin er hjelpsom og hyggelig, men svært vanskelig å forstå. Kraftig dialekt og snakker vedlig fort. Et par minutter å gå til bussholdeplass. Bussen bruker ca 15 min til sentrum.
