“Would stay here again!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2012

We stayed here for four nights in December to do a bit of sightseeing. Our room was clean and comfortable with everything we needed in it. We had a separate bathroom that was just across the corridor. It was again clean and modern; towels were changed as and when we needed them. Breakfast was always lovely; with the choice of a fry up or a healthier option.
Both Harry and Isabelle were friendly and extremely helpful. They took an interest in what we were doing, advising us on the best ways to get to the aquarium and the zoo. They even allowed us to print some passes out on their home computer so that we could see the pandas; which we really appreciated!
The B&B is in an ideal location. A taxi from the airport cost us £21 (much cheaper than in London!) We walked into town every day; it took about 15/20 minutes depending on what shopping centre we were going to. There was a bus that you could get instead and the stop was only a few minutes from the B&B. The train station is also in walking distance.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Craigmoss B&B and if we were to go to Edinburgh again we would definitely stay there!

Thanks,
Jo

“Good location, good food, good host, although perhaps couldve been made better for value for money.”

Couple in 20s. Stayed over new year in guest house.

Good location for walk to city centre. Recommend walking as although this may have been new year prices a short trip in comcab taxiu was at least 10 pounds

Isabelle the host was very friendly.

Breakfast was good and goos variety.

Room 4 was comfortable, however shower is a bit of a squeeze, windows difficult to open but bathroon is fine if your extractor is on... Switch on celiling needs to be on which we didn't realise was there initially.

Rooms were replenished for towels and toiletries however it woudlve been nice for beds to be changed and the vacuum passed just for a general freshen, as we were there 4 night.

Complementary wine was given for swapping to book through themselves rather than late rooms, however we did not receive this as planned and had to ask for it later on the first evening, we were given wine from their own fridge as they hadn't got ours yet.

“Apartment Reunion Heriot Hill Tce”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 November 2011

Three friends from Sutherland, Skye & Wester Ross had November reunion week in this beautifully cosy, warm and homely apartment. All rooms had been newly and tastefully decorated with the comfiest recliner chair ever as well as comfortable beds and well equipped kitchen and facilities. Harry & Isa, owners, had put a generous welcome pack of goodies in the fridge to greet us and were kindly on hand to offer info and help wherever necessary (even drove us to a swim pool and to see Britannia one night and wi-fi-d our laptop!) .
This self catering apartment is 2 minutes walk from bus stops for 10 minute direct journey to city centre Princess St - shops, art gallery, bus/train stations, botanic gardens and is perfectly located for accessing all wonders and attractions that Edinburgh offers...too many to cover in one week .... and 5 mins walk from a foodstore.
We three loved our stay in this apartment which is exceptional value for money and operated by the kindest, most helpful and city-knowledgeable couple. A week is not long enough! Will be back. Thank You for our happy week. Kai, Jessie & Lex

Room Tip: Perfect location for access to city centre.

“Craigmoss - Great Breakfasts!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 November 2011

We spent a lovely 5 days at Craigmoss and it provided a great base to see the sights of Edinburgh with frequent bus service just outside. The variety of the breakfasts was really good and we sampled 3 out of the 6, the favourite with my Daughter was the healthy option fruit berry yoghurt with warm croissant. The owners Isabelle and Harry are very friendly and Isabelle chatted over breakfast about places to see and where to go. The room was clean and modern. We would definately stay here again. Sarah and Jane.
