Gifford House Bed and Breakfast Edinburgh Reviews & Recommendations

Here are a selection of reviews and recommendations that have been given by previous Gifford House Bed and Breakfast guests, or our new friends as we like to call them! The reviews have been taken from our social media and booking partner pages.

Thanks a million!

"Stunning place, clean, old school perfection! Breakfast amazing but I must do this right as it were, so- I tried to find dust anywhere including tops of picture frames and dado rails not cause I'm ignorant but because I was in such disbelief at the perfection I am luck to see in a day where slap dash will do,,, nothing! No dust not even a spec anywhere and god I tried! The bed sheets were folded so symmetrical I felt bad getting into bed! No truly I near measured it but realized there was no point as they were so perfectly done! The furniture is lovely, the lavatory stunning with even nail scissors cotton buds in fact twenty things you just need! Damn even the tea bags are good ones! Simply an amazing place you just cannot find out there. I simply had to take the time to write this review and still I'm not doing it justice. I just cannot fault the place. Even the most cynical annoying person I dare to find fault! Thanks a million and I will be back!!"

Breakfast is excellent!

"We have stayed here several times and been made to feel very welcome by extremely accommodating hosts. As long as there is a room available, we wouldn't want to stay anywhere else in Edinburgh. It is convenient for the City, close to Arthur's Seat and very comfortable. Breakfast is excellent."

Very clean rooms!

​"This is a beautiful, quaint little hotel, located conveniently close to the city centre, having good transportation access. The hotel is maintained at a highly professional level. The staff are extremely friendly and made us feel right at home. It has very pretty interiors and very clean rooms. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Edinburgh. The hotel is run by a family, who were extremely helpful in suggesting places for us to visit."

We loved Gifford House!

​“The Best B&B! We loved Gifford House! Our room was large and looked onto a back garden and Arthur’s Seat. Our host was very accommodating, he helped us with bus routes, where to go, where to have dinner, he just knew everything. He also let us use his phone to call our credit card company. He and his wife went out of their way to be helpful! Breakfast was fantastic and there was a large selection of jams and fruits and we just stuffed ourselves..scrambled eggs were perfectly cooked. We had a great stay & didn’t want to leave!”  Q Book/ 2016

Convenient for my business trip venue!

“Excellent accommodation with loads of character and super hosts in David and Margaret. Enjoyed the lighter breakfast choice on the menu. The b&b was very convenient for my business trip venue. Good also for a bus as required. A real treat and merits 5 stars.”  Trip Advisor / 2016
