We spent two night at McCraes in the family room. We were very impressed with the size of the bedroom and bathroom. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfasts were excellent. John, the owner, and his three children were warm and friendly. We only met the children briefly but spent a good deal of time talking with John. He... More

We had a wonderful stay. The location is great --- 20-30 minute walk to most of the major sights and close to many good pubs and restaurants. John was very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful in providing advice and directions. Rooms were extremely clean with comfortable beds and ensuite bathrooms. Breakfasts were fantastic with many local organic products. Good value for... More

Lush bedding and a great, renovated, bathroom. The double (that also had a single bed) was roomy and comfortable. The room looked out to the backyard, which was lovely. We walked from the rail station and found the location to be good -- between two active locales. John directed to the laundromat and served awesome breakfasts. My husband had his... More

Very enjoyable & relaxing stay in a comfortable, clean & welcoming guest house. The twin room was spacious with very comfortable beds & lots of added extras. Vegetarian breakfast was delicious! I would be very happy to stay here again.

The triple room was very big and clean and the breakfast room was really lovely. We tried full and light breakfast, and both were good. Especially on... More

We highly recommend McCraes's B&B. John was helpful from the first email contact through our last night in Edinburgh. The room was clean and cozy, the bed very comfortable with organic cotton sheets, and a sitting room is available to guests. John uses organic ingredients to create a delicious and as hearty a breakfast and one desires. The hospitality was... More

A cozy B&B with a friendly very helpful Irishman as owner. The triple room was big, with excellent bathroom facilities. Nice attention to detail such as the Scottish made woolen blankets, a good selection of books and the organic tea. Very quiet room and comfortable beds for a good night's sleep. Breakfast was simple but good ( we did not... More

What a shame that I only stayed one night! Excellent value for money, warm welcome, relaxed atmosphere, beautiful en-suite rooms with original character... I could go on... Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this b&b to anyone or stay here again myself! Helen

Everything was wonderful. The hotel is very clean and a small (total 4 rooms), but there is everything for a good rest. A little away from the center, but in a quiet and safe place. Nearby there is a shop where one can buy everything necessary. The owner of the hotel John is very nice and friendly. Breakfasts are simple,... More
