Many thanks for making our stay with you so enjoyable. The room was lovely and breakfast was so filling!! [ and your flowers at the front are stunning] Also thanks for offering to give us a lift into town this morning-luckily out taxi did turn up but your gesture was much appreciated. It was my daughter Claire's birthday yesterday and... more

Kariba has a great location in central edinburgh- only 15mins to castle. Our room was very comfy and clean. The owners could not have been friender or more accomodating. The best part was the breakfast- kept us going all day! more

We decided on a last minute holiday to Edinburgh and did not book anything in advance. We came across the Kariba by searhing on the website. On arrival we were greated with a very friendly welcome. Our double en-suite room was situated overlooking the back garden and was very peaceful. The owners explained that they were just serving continental breakfast... more

I stayed in the Kariba guest house in October this year and left feeling extremely dissapointed with the quality of rooms and standard of service. The room was extremely dirty and dusty and very old fashioned. The bins were not emptied on a daily basis even though I stayed for 4 nights. The breakfast was very greasy and hardly warm,... more

I booked to stay at Kariba for a weekend visit for a friend's wedding in Edinburgh. We arrived late on the Friday with no hassle and were shown to our high ceiling spacious bedroom. The room and bathroom were spotless. The bed was huge and really comfortable. I was told that they are regularly replaced and this really made a... more

Stayed here during the Fringe Festival with a friend, and I realise prices were higher than usual. While the B&B is in a good location and within walking distance from the centre, the room and breakfast area weren't clean at all - won't go into detail. The bathroom floor hadn't even been wet before we took the room. The cutlery... more

I reccomend this Guest House for its cleanliness and position (25 minutes walking to the Caslte - there are also 2 buses directed to the centre). Parking may be free, but £5/day is not really expensive. Also good the breakfast. Reccomended. more

I echo two of the previous comments in that tableware looked very suspicious (though if you search hard enough you might find a not-so-dirty glass); and that the owners like to change prices. When I booked (for 3 nights) I warned that I would be alone the last night and was told that it was OK: I would keep the... more
