Had a really nice stay here, we really liked our room which had everything we needed. The breakfast was really good and the hosts very helpful and nice, they gave us loads of information on how to see the best of Edinburgh - which is beautiful. They are really nice people and we would definiteley stay there again. Hoping to... More

I booked two rooms, double and single and was told this would have a bathroom to share in the middle. We were put on a different floor and shared bathroom with many others. The room was so rundown and not up to scratch. There was a watertank behind the bed which made noise all night. On arrival our rooms were... More

Thank you for your comments but as we only have six rooms, three of which are en-suite I am at a loss to know where these ‘many’ people came from that were using the shared bathrooms. I note that the reviewer did not approve of our décor on their one night stay and I will certainly investigate any noises from... More

We stayed here as we dropped our eldest daughter off for university and will definitely try to stay there every time we are back in Edinburgh! Spacious rooms with sinks and nearby clean bathrooms. Excellent Scottish breakfast, and what is better than that? Were helped with all travel plans up to the Highlands as well as daily needs in order... More

Really enjoyed my stay at the Ascot Guest House, the hosts were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble. My room was very comfortable, spotlessly clean and the breakfast well above average. There was no problem parking either in the car park or free parking on the street across the road (rare in Edinburgh). Very convenient for city centre, would certainly... More

On arrival we were shown up a very nice staircase to a huge, high ceilinged bedroom. In the corner was a very odd shower/toilet arrangement and the basin was in the bedroom itself. It is a shame that a little more thought and money had not been put into the bathroom arrangements as they were bizarre to say the least.... More

I visit and work in Scotland doing Heritage Tourism Planning and have visited Scotland twice a year for 15 + years. My first visit to Scotland friends booked me at the Ascot Guest House and I have been staying there ever since. It is my "home away from home" when I am working in Scotland. There is more to a...

This was the oddest room we've ever stayed in in any hotel or b&b. The room was on the large side, but it was the toilet and bathroom facilities that really were the oddity for us. The toilet was encased in a small enclosure with barely enough room to get in. The sink was on the wall inside the bedroom... More
