Not only is their guest house beautiful, but the service was second to none and made our first stay in Edinburgh a great one. Would recommend this place to anyone who wants a quiet and well serviced stay a stones throw from downtown Edinburgh. ##### Jack Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marco May 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very beautifull, elegant and clean room.

Ideal location with regular buses running into City very nearby. The area was exceptionally quiet in the Event by with some great nearby cafes for breakfast. Room was very clean and comfortable with a view of Arthur’s seat from our window. The host was super helpful with an informative welcome explaining all of the transport options and places to visit. Highly recommended ##### Neil Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julien Apr 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I was very happy with my stay in the end. The Guest House staff was very welcoming and helpful. I loved my room and would come back int he future. There was some initial confusion around whether my 2-night stay included breakfast or not (as my Expedia booking clearly indicated it did). When I reached out to Expedia, the phone support was insufficient and inadequate. The Guest House did make up for it with some tea / coffee / fruit / biscuits available inside my room. ##### Julien Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniela May 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Best budget friendly choice for Edinburgh Exceptionally clean and cozy,this guest house took me by surprise.There was nothing I didn’t like,even though I stayed in a single room with separate shower.The staff was very helpful and accommodating.They even had soya milk in the room,in addition to coffee,tea and creamer.Also a nice touch,a glass bottle of tap water,replenished every day. ##### Daniela Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael Sep 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### One of the best Guest Houses in Edinburgh The Highfield Guest House is just a little bit further from the centre of Edinburgh but you can easily get there in 20 minutes by bus. The premises are immaculate and I was given a very friendly welcome by Maggie. Breakfast is not provided but that is not a difficulty as a branch of Margiotta's supermarket is just opposite where good croissants and coffee are available. The ensuite facilities were very well kept. ##### Michael Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephanie May 3, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Merveilleux Ravie de l’accueil chambre adorable lits confortables aucun bruit ni dehors ni dedans Tout était parfait ##### Stephanie Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Seungjae Dec 30, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### impressed breakfast pack perfect place, pack perfect breakfasts for the early departure so deeply impressed ##### Seungjae Stayed 1 night in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Guido Nov 28, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great B&B near Royal Observatory The Guest house is a 10min walk from the Royal Observatory and a 20min walk from old town. Ideally located for a business meeting at the Observatory. The Highfield has only a few rooms (5, I believe) and the owners are very welcoming and friendly. The rooms are not very large but very clean, comfortable and extremely well maintained. It is not a place where you want to work for hours but if you don't plan to spend a lot of time in your room, it is a great place to stay. If needed, I am sure you can use the breakfast room to work or read. The breakfast is cooked to order, very tasty and served starting at 8am. I keep on the top of my list for places to stay in Edinburgh. ##### Guido Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Sep 27, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful property.

Well connected to bus routes too, and close to most of the Fringe venues. Maggie and Kate were great hosts, with Maggie in particular giving loads of advice on travel and dining options. The single room is a little on the small side but comfortable, bright and clean. I hadn't realised the bathroom was not ensuite but it is very close to the bedroom and not a major inconvenience. Breakfast was amazing! ##### Iain Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jun 26, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very attractive period home, tastefully decorated + great breakfasts.
