The Gifford House was a beautiful temporary home for our 6 day stay in Edinburgh. Our room was large, comfortable and exceptionally clean. It was handy to all types of restaurants (recommend the Salisbury Arms just up the street on a weekday but not on a Friday). David and Margaret were the perfect hosts where nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was ample and they had a good selection. We were just across the street from the bus stop which made it simple to go into the city. Great place to stay. The Gifford is within easy walking distance of Arthurs Seat in Holyrood Park or about a 1.5 mile walk to Waverley station and Holyrood Palace
