We stayed at the Ben Doran Guesthouse during the Hogmanay week. Before our arrival we asked for a room without carpet because of my sensitivity and we had a lovely big room, just outside the main entrance, who was clean, calm and with everything necessary. The breakfast is included and it's in a lovely room with a characteristic decoration. The guest house is perfectly located in a residential area, in front of a bus stop at 20/30 minutes walk to the center with somes pubs and stores nearby.

Nice older property. Charming decor, quite Edwardian so some would say dated. Good-sized room. Buses to central Edinburgh are almost outside the front door. Yet the room was very quiet, and we could open the window for fresh air, and look out onto back gardens. Nice restaurants/pubs a few blocks away. Fairly close to Arthur’s Seat, if you are very fit (we are not, but were tempted). Nice residential back streets nearby to experience the Edinburgh vibe.

My partner and I came to Edinburgh for my birthday and this lovely guesthouse did not disappoint! Lovely view, very classy inside and the staff were absolutely wonderful! Breakfast was lovely, from hot buffet to a variety of cheeses, yoghurts and pastries.

The room was very clean and comfortable with tea and coffee making facilities and ensuite shower & toilet. We liked the traditional feel and decor. There was a very good choice for breakfast with both hot food and lighter/continental breakfast to suit all tastes. The staff were helpful and very welcoming, and there was plenty of information available on the city - a nice touch was a bowl of sweets on the table in the entrance hall. We really enjoyed our stay here.

Room was very comfy and clean. I spoke to the lady who I assume was the manager while eating breakfast on my first day and she was happy to stop and chat about the area and general chit chat Bathroom was clean and easily accessible from my room. Breakfast on the first day was great. Was also able to check in early as I'd arrived in Edinburgh earlier than I expected.

Room was good. Comfortable bed. Breakfast was upstairs in the main hotel and was modest, but absolutely fine. Cheerful service.

The staff was absolutely wonderful! Very kind, gave us good advice and information. The location was quiet and the bus stop was right across the street.

The staff let us check into our room very early, which was a massive bonus as we were both absolutely shattered after our overnight train journey! The staff were very eager to assist us. We stayed in the basement room 12, which was huge, with a very large comfy bed and loads of space! Breakfast had plenty of fruit, yoghurt and the usual but bacon would have been nice also! :) The hotel is adjacent to the bus stop from the city centre and opposite to the one into town. Although it is only a 30 minute walk from the town centre there are frequent buses, which is very helpful in case it's too wet to walk! :)

We were kindly given the largest room in the guesthouse, as we had informed the guesthouse that we were visiting on our honeymoon so they were kind enough to treat us. The room was large and clean and the bedding was very comfortable. Parking at the guesthouse was a big plus as we drove quite far and didn't fancy having to leave our car parked elsewhere. Convenient check-in at any hours. Delicious breakfast with plenty of choice for everyone.
