Victorian-style setting in Newington, an affluent residential area near major landmarks.
Free WiFi, hospitality trays, and games like billiards and darts available.
Self-parking for three vehicles, with free street parking nearby.
Continental breakfast included daily.

“The townhouse has a genuinely welcoming host and offers comfortable, quiet rooms; plus, the location allows for pleasant walks to the city center or a quick bus ride. I think the value for money is excellent, especially considering the views some rooms have of Arthur's Seat. A solid choice for a no-frills Edinburgh stay.”
