The Spotlight on B B Edinburgh

Classic Scottish Elegance Just Steps From the Music Scene

Modern comfort meets historic charm at B B Edinburgh, a boutique bed and breakfast nestled in a beautiful 19th-century townhouse. Located just a 10-minute walk from Haymarket Station and Princes Street, this stylish stay offers easy access to the heart of Edinburgh’s entertainment and live music venues—without sacrificing peace and quiet. With its grand staircase, original architecture, and sleek modern rooms, it’s the perfect blend of old and new.

Why Concert-goers love it

You’re just a short walk or quick train ride from many of Edinburgh’s top live music venues, making it easy to catch a show and return without hassle. Despite its central location, the hotel stays relatively quiet at night—ideal for unwinding after a loud gig. Flexible 3:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM check-out times let you plan around late-night concerts without stress. And with free Wi-Fi throughout, it’s easy to post those post-show selfies.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking for a stylish base with shared charm
- Solo travelers on a music pilgrimage
- Couples making a cozy weekend of it
- Fans who want a peaceful place to crash after the encore
- Budget-conscious music lovers who want boutique vibes without big prices

Food and Drink Options

Start your day right with a full cooked Scottish breakfast served in a beautifully restored dining room. After the show, unwind in the hotel’s cozy bar, which offers a curated selection of cocktails, beers, and wines. While there’s no 24/7 room service or late-night dining on-site, you’re just a short walk from Edinburgh’s vibrant food scene with plenty of options open late.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself keeps things calm, you’re within walking distance of lively bars and pubs around Haymarket and Princes Street. Whether you’re in the mood for live local music, a quiet craft beer, or a late-night dram, you’ll find it nearby.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s historic charm and modern upgrades, especially the elegant rooms and friendly staff. Reviews often praise the central yet quiet location and the quality of the breakfast. Many visitors say they’d return just for the cozy, welcoming atmosphere.

Areas for Improvement

There’s no elevator, and the beautiful original staircase might be a challenge if you’re carrying heavy bags. Also, while it’s walkable to venues, those with mobility issues might prefer something even closer to the action.

The Bottom Line

A stylish and peaceful retreat just minutes from the heart of Edinburgh’s music scene—B B Edinburgh is perfect for concert-goers who want charm, comfort, and convenience.

A nice building spoiled by...

Liked: A building with superb architecture and in an ideal location.The staff were friendly, especially the evening receptionist, who also manages the bar. She even suggested we get a panini from the adjoining hotel to save the delay in her making one.The NCP car park code that the hotel can issue saves money on nearby NCP parking.
Disliked: I am sad to say the bland but clean double bedroom only had one chair and no curtains. There was a blind, but it allowed sunlight to enter.Whilst there was coffee, there were only two teabags and no milk for two people per night. However, reception staff provided some after they were requested. They also provided a missing TV remote, after first searching for it in our bedroom and not finding it!Breakfast followed in a similar vein, with only one slice of toast per guest, which came with the tea. A ten-minute wait for the actual meal followed. Also, on both days, we both ordered duplicate meals. But the first one had finished before the second one had arrived.A problem was also created by yoghurts, fruit, or cakes being displayed in just twos or threes, and replaced by the same number. This resulted in a continuous shortage for the occupants of the twelve or so breakfast tables. It also kept the staff very busy in doing so.Despite the above, I should add that the staff were superb, especially Chris, who was not only very informative and helpful, but who were just following management instructions.

Great location in a beautiful...

Liked: The view from the room.
Disliked: The leaking shower, the broken windows that wouldn’t open on a very hot evening, the lack of sheets on the cot, the ugly and tired furniture, the uncomfortable entry to the shower and the very expensive price (290£/night)
