The location of the guest house is near the beautiful botanic garden and if you don’t mind a bit of a walk, you’re on the Eoyal Mile within half an hour. Keiko was a wonderful host and the room was nice.

Just a short walk from Princess Street with a number of great local restaurants and cafes nearby. Is very central to most of the city sights including Edinburgh Castle and Royal Botanical Gardens, as well as Rose Street. Easy tram and bus access.

The area was lovely and a nice walk uphill towards Edinburgh centre. The room was incredibly clean, brew facilities in room available, working heater and tv, comfy bed. The owner was very warm and welcoming, breakfast is available also which is a pro for some. Only cons: bad shower pressure, jammy door lock, and jammy window

Lovely peaceful place in New Town

The place is in a great location, in the interesting, charming and less touristy New Town area. It was an easy walk to Princes St and the station. There are some lovely neighbourhood bars, shops and restaurants very nearby. The place is a homely, characterful old town house. A very large bedroom and small bathroom. The room was very comfortable and well equipped with everything you’d need and more. It was a self check in but still had a very personal feel as Keiko was very communicative by message and it was lovely to meet her in person too. She is an extremely attentive and welcoming host. The price of the place seemed high, and didn’t include breakfast, but I appreciate that all prices are high in the area. I had a very comfortable and extremely peaceful stay. Thank you!

Liked: Staff & service
I enjoyed my time here but I wasn’t quite prepared for the room set up. I booked a twin bed with private bath. I didn’t realize the private bath was in a separate room. To use the toilet I had to leave the bedroom, enter the common area hallway, and enter another room. And the shower was in a separate, third room. I know with older houses we need to be flexible, but I wish this set up would have been more clearly communicated in the reservation options. Overall - it’s a quaint place to rest your head. I spent most of my time out and about anyway.

Not happy.. I'm sorry..

The room was not as in pictures - much smaller - and the bathroom very small. The bed was terribly hard/ firm, the pillows in the room were like a brick stone. Pains in the neck after first night. Asked for new, and got it - luckily. No taking out trash from the room, and no change of towels or glasses until the last day. Got a room on the second floor, long stairs and dirty carpet. The bathroom was very noisy, and not very clean - it looked as if it had not been thoroughly cleaned in a long time. Forgotten cleaning supplies in the bathroom. The hosts did not meet our request matter the change of dates and would not try to help - only refereed to Hotels.com - even if we know they could help if they wanted. They had no information on how to easiest travel from the airport to the guesthouse - we had to google it.

This Guest House was central and in a quiet area. The room was spacious, clean, great decor. The owner, Keiko was helpful prior to my arrival and gracious when I was leaving. Cost was reasonably for the quality of accommodation. A comfortable night sleep to boot. Couldn't ask for more. Thanks

Very Good

The place is very nice and comfortable. It’s relatively close to the city center and has easy access to the bus stops. Everything in the guest house is very clean and the staff here are very friendly. The rooms are also very nice and have plenty of space. Breakfast was also very pleasant and has a huge selection of food items.

Great choice for short-term stay!

I stayed at Ardenlee Guest House for three nights in February. The owners are lovely and made me feel welcome with a complimentary upgraded room. Check-in and check-out is very easy. The room itself has everything you might need for a short stay: a nice private bathroom, a decently comfortable bed, blackout curtains, a tea kettle, and good, free WiFi. Everything was in nice working condition. It's nothing fancy, but a comfortable place to stay for a solo traveler. Beware that the walk to the city center, though only 15-20 minutes, is uphill. Consider using public transport (which is all explained when you check in).
