Boutique hotel in a historic Victorian townhouse near Edinburgh Castle
Rooms
Each room is individually styled with a blend of classic and modern design, and includes a tiled private bathroom, a flat-screen satellite TV, and tea and coffee making facilities. The hotel offers family rooms and rooms with views of Dean Village or Edinburgh Castle, as noted by previous guests. A small lift serves all floors, though some rooms on the fourth floor have sloped ceilings.
Location
The hotel is a 20-minute walk from Edinburgh Castle and the Royal Mile, and a 10-minute walk from Haymarket Rail Station and Princes Street. It sits in a quiet residential area near Dean Village, a short distance from the Water of Leith walkway. Nearby attractions include the Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle, and Dean Village, all within easy walking distance.
Dining
A full cooked breakfast is provided each morning in the dining room, featuring locally sourced ingredients and a menu that includes eggs Benedict and Scottish breakfast options. Guests can also order from a brunch menu that highlights local and seasonal dishes. The bar serves a selection of cocktails, beers, and wines, and afternoon tea is offered in a picturesque setting.
Pet-Friendly
B+B Edinburgh is a pet-friendly hotel that provides amenities for four-legged guests, including beds, bowls, and treats upon arrival. A separate menu for dogs is available during breakfast, allowing pets to order their own meal. The hotel welcomes pets in designated areas and staff are trained to accommodate animal guests.
“This establishment resides in a beautifully restored Georgian townhouse, its character thoughtfully preserved throughout. The strategic location offers a comfortable walk to key attractions and transport links, while the rooms themselves provide a welcome warmth and impressive views. Its greatest asset, however, is the genuinely attentive and helpful staff, who consistently go the extra mile, making even unexpected disruptions feel manageable.”
James DavidEditor-in-Chief at Uklothian
