Hotel Details

A peaceful residential area 3 km from the University of Edinburgh and close to Blackford Hill park.
The property is situated in a quiet neighbourhood, ideal for those visiting the Royal Infirmary hospital or attending appointments at the university. A shopping centre is a short walk away via a shortcut, and Blackford Hill offers a scenic walk with views over Edinburgh. Frequent buses run into the city centre, making a car unnecessary for most trips. The location is also convenient for guests using the on-site free parking. Edinburgh Airport is 17 km away.

Accommodation

Spacious double rooms with character features, parquet floors, and garden views from a private balcony.
Rooms are generously sized and decorated in a boho-chic style, retaining the grand character of the Victorian villa. Each room includes a wardrobe, sofa, and either a private shower en-suite or access to a shared bathroom with a large bathtub and separate toilet. The double room with a balcony offers garden views and parquet flooring. Some rooms feature a four-poster bed. Heating and free WiFi are standard. The shared nature of the house means guests share kitchen, lounge, and some bathroom facilities with residents and other travellers, though the layout provides ample privacy.

Dining

A fully equipped self-catering kitchen where only tea and coffee are provided.
The shared kitchen is well-stocked with cookware, utensils, and a fridge with guest space, allowing you to prepare your own meals. Tea and coffee are supplied, but all other food and drink must be brought by guests. Several restaurants are within walking distance, including Flava Restaurant (0.5 km) and Mango Tree Edinburgh (1 km), for those preferring not to cook.

Wellness and Leisure

A tranquil garden with outdoor seating and a veranda for relaxation.
The property features a beautiful, well-kept garden with garden furniture, a picnic area, and a veranda where guests can enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Blackford Hill park and a large park are nearby for walking and enjoying city views. The lounge and TV area provide a comfortable indoor space to unwind.
