“Nice place, disappointing room”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012

This "Bed & Breakfast" is in a good position for visiting the city, about 25 mins walking to the city centre. The hosts are friendly and helpful and the house is very nice. The lounge room was OK, but constantly used by the owner. The place was full, therefore breakfast room was crowded and the service a bit slow. What really disappointed us was the bedroom we were given. It was on the first floor, facing the back. Although it had a double bed, the bedroom was too small to be a double room, with no room to move. No wardrobes, just a metal rack to hang clothes. The en-suite was a box. It had a small shower, with a very weak jet which refused to heat up above lukewarm. The bed and the pillows were awful, hard and uncomfortable. I'm sure they must have better rooms - sadly, the one we got was dismal for the price we paid.

Room Tip: Ask for a large room or go somewhere else

“Excellent stay at Duthus Lodge.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011

A lovely Bed & Breakfast option in Edinburgh. We only stayed the night and were delighted with the whole exprience. A warm welcome from Murdo & Bracken set the scene well! Our room (4) was spacious & very well appointed. It was at the front of the hotel but didn't hear any road noise at all. It's in a very good position with the centre of Edinburgh a 15-20 minute stroll away. Buses stop virtually outside the garden gate if you're feeling lazy. Plenty of free parking at the side of the hotel at weekends too.

The breakfast was superb - full Scottish with all the trimmings. Plenty of toast & very good coffee. We would definately stay here again & would recommend the Duthus Lodge to anyone. Many thanks for a great stay.

“We simply loved it.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 September 2011

It has taken me far too long to write this review. However, my tardiness does not lessen the outstanding time we had at Duthus Lodge. During our stay in Scotland, we visited and experienced MANY Bed and Breakfasts. We loved Kay and Murdo, their warm hospitality, and the way they made us feel so very special. The accommodation was spectacular, the breakfast was fantastic, and of course Edinburgh was amazing. Thank you for having us, we will return.

“very welcoming”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2011

myself and my 3 sisters stayed here on a birthday weekend in Edinburgh. We were made very welcome and were delighted with our room. Parking was secure and theres a bus stop right across the road which cost £1.30 to the city centre. The Scottish breakfast was delicious. I will definetly stay here again.

“Warm welcome as always”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 September 2011

Stayed at the Duthus Lodge once again, and as always, not disappointed.
A warm welcome, lovely breakfasts, and very homely too, not forgetting how easy and convenient for local public transport.
Can't wait to go back!
