The House is ideally located and is just beautiful. Our room had fabulous views of the city and was luxurious and comfortable. Carole and George were welcoming and friendly, which made the stay even better. It was awesome chatting with Carole in the mornings, getting to know her story and the story of the house a bit better, as well as receiving recommendations on things to do/places to go. The quality of the breakfast was excellent and everything was delicious, including the home made jam!! If I could rate it an 11 I would !! Highly recommended and would love to come back.

We loved our luxurious quiet clean room with a lovely view of the city and gardens and of course the extra warm welcome we received. Breakfast was a delight with so much food and many choices and was beautifully and expertly prepared by Carole. The location of this B&B is in the best part of Edinburgh and you can visit all the major sights and many restaurants on foot. We highly recommend the West End Townhouse!

Carol, the owner of the place was absolutely wonderful to us. Her hospitality and the beautiful place itself made us feel at home. The breakfast was also amazing quality. We are definitely staying here again if we ever return to Edinburgh.

If you are looking for a great location within the city and a relaxing, friendly place to stay then this is the place for you. You are greeted by a friendly Carol who goes above and beyond. I can see why people come back time and time again.

The breakfast was lovely and the conversation enlightening. I travel often to Edinburgh so will definitely stay again if there is a vacancy.

Fabulous stay in luxury Georgian Townhouse in central Edinburgh. Carole has refurbished the townhouse to an exceptionally high standard, which ensures your stay is both luxurious and comfortable. Our room was large and very comfortable with fabulous views of the city. The continental breakfasts were delicious, with a great variety of quality produce, added to friendly chats with Carole and other guests in the stunning kitchen, the perfect start to the day. The real gem here though is Carole, she clearly puts her heart and soul into the business, and makes you feel like you're staying with family. By far the best b&b experience for me.

Very friendly and polite, helpful and interested. Impressive house and room, beautiful views and lovely breakfast, everything you could wish for.

Whilst there are separate facilities to make yourself tea or coffee (and a fridge to keep wine etc cool) - nothing beats having your own kettle in your room to have a drink as soon as you wake up without having to leave your room would have been even better. However this is a very minor point in a really enjoyable stay.

Ideally located (can walk to Princes Street easily in a few minutes, and Waverley at the other end in about 25 mins- although we got the tram with luggage). The house is just beautiful, and the host Carole is just delightful, so welcoming, knowledgeable and friendly. Located in a great part of Edinburgh, with access to some scenic walks and restaurants close by. Breakfast was lovely, served in the large beautiful kitchen, and you share the breakfast table with other guests.

There was nothing we didn't like about this place

The location was perfect just right, not to into the hustle & bustle of Princes Street but close enough to visit all the fantastic tourist attractions in Edingburgh, the house was amazing & the view from our room was stunning, Carol was a perfect host a lovely warm & friendly lady who made us feel at home immediately, the breakfast she provided was absolutely out of this world everything you could think of cereals, yoghurt fruits, toast scrambled egg & the best of all was Carol's special porridge which was to die for. If we ever visit Edinburgh again we would definitely stay at West End Town House we would highly recommend it loved it so much.

Nothing could make this place and this service better than it already is. Wow. Just wow.

We wanted a great place to stay, but this place is so so much more than that. Everything is perfect and the aesthetics is of the highest of standards. The location, service, quality of breakfast and personal engagement are excellent. Carol and her familiy clearly cares about their place and their visitors. The service, the experience and standards of living are all taken to a whole new level. We are so greatful that we chose to live here during the visit to Edinburgh.

Tea/coffee facilities would be a welcome addition to the room but Carol was more than happy to make me a cup of tea when I asked, so not a huge issue! The rooms are at the top of the house and so there are a lot of stairs to climb. Just something to consider for those with mobility issues but thankfully not a problem for me.

I travelled alone and felt so safe here. Carol is a truly wonderful host, I felt like I was staying with family but at the same time she wasn’t at all intrusive. The room was extremely comfortable with good quality bedding etc and exceptionally clean. Excellent location, near to all that Edinburgh has to offer. I can’t wait to return!

Stayed in November 2023

We’re not used to two flights of stairs but it was manageable.

Excellent location and the house is beautifully appointed. Carol was a very gracious and helpful host.

That we had to leave!!

Everything about our stay at the guest house was exceptional. The owners were very nice, friendly and could not do enough to make our stay very special. We felt like we were visiting an old friends! Everything felt very personal. The quality and standard of the guest house was 100%. We truly hope we visit again one day.

Parking on Edinburgh is dismal. I suggest waiting to rent a car until after you leave. The public transportation was very efficient in town.

We enjoyed our stay with Carol and George very much. They were very personable and helpful. We highly recommend them.

Carole was an outstanding host. She provided recommendations on things to do and see, and restaurant and pub recommendations. We really enjoyed the morning conversations, insightful and engaging. The breakfast was delicious. Thank you for introducing us to your special porridge recipe, what a way to start the day ;) delicious! The entranceway was welcoming and warm, we arrived back one evening and all the candles were lit, it was spectacular! The room was nicely appointed with a comfortable bed, and a great shower, and the entire accommodation was spotless from top to bottom. The view from the top level of this historic townhouse was really something else.

Beautiful room overlooking gardens and city. Delicious breakfast each morning. The owner was friendly and made great suggestions for meals, site seeing , and shopping. We enjoyed talking with her about families and traveling over breakfast. My daughter and I would love to return. The city was wonderful, too!

We should have stayed longer! We wouldn’t change a thing.

We loved the very warm welcome and stylish, comfortable rooms with lots of natural light. The hosts were beyond gracious and so kind and helpful; recommendations and directions were superb. Hostess was generous and made sure we had milk alternatives at breakfast which was delicious with rich real coffee, fresh fruit and artisan cheeses. Breakfast table was set beautifully, such a treat with beautiful view. Outstanding location offering easy access to city and Mother Nature just outside the door.

Wonderful room, the pictures don't do it justice at all. Very spacious and comfortable - and that doesn't even include the common rooms with a great view over Edinburgh. Great place to stay in Edinburgh with a lovely host in Carole who has lots of experience and recommendations in and around the city who makes you feel like part of the family.
