Excellent host! Service is like a hotel but with a much more personal experience. Clean. Quiet (do not be concerned about closeness to airport). Lovely location, where small town meets countryside. 30 min by bus to downtown Edinburgh (bus app works well). Also, if you have a car, Sabannga Thai restaurant 3 miles away comes highly recommended.

Great guesthouse. Great value for money. Really lovely people, Hilary !!! Amazing breakfast and an amazing bed (having back problems so I know what I'm talking about). And the garden was a great addition - peace and relaxing after everything else. Loved the cat and her company during our quiet moments in the garden. I'll try to come again.

We loved every minute of our stay at JustB Edinburgh, the breakfast was out of this world and the people made us feel like we are at home. One of the best places we stayed at during our tip to UK! Well done to them!!!

The owner was extremely fun, helpful and made our visit to Edinburgh an even better experience. It's incredible that as a mum with three children to look after, she can still run an accommodation so well.

Amazing place to stay! Fully met our expectations! The room was very beautiful. The guesthouse is very nice, you can even use a fridge in the common room. There is a small supermarket at a walking distance. It's also 30 mins walking to the centre, which is not far away.

It was clean, comfortable, great for couple days stay. The best thing was the location. It is located at the city centre, very close to St Andrew Square, couple minutes walk to Royal Mile, castle, museums, bars and restaurants. The last day, we could drop our luggage at the basement, close to the property, so we could go in the city for the last time and didn’t have to carry it with us.

The guest house was in a great location. Next to the bus station, 5 minutes away from Waverley station. Our room was clean with firm comfy beds, exactly as we requested. Murray, our host, was helpful and polite, and looked after us so well. Our room had a great view from the windows. The breakfast was lovely. The rooms were quieter than I had expected given the location.

This was undeniably the perfect stay. Firstly, beautiful and charming house in a nice residential area not far from Edinburgh city centre (only a 15 minute bus ride or a 40 minute walk), super clean and quiet room, very comfy bed and modern bathroom with all the necessities. Secondly, breakfast was delicious, freshly cooked every morning by the owner. Last but not least, Kingsley Guest house is run by a very friendly family who made me feel at home as soon as I stepped inside. Highly recommended.

Cosy guesthouse at the charming heart of Bruntsfield, an adorable part of Edinburgh. Close to small, vibrant boutiques and bars and just some minutes away from the city center.
