Comfortable stay in Leith

Liked: Fraoch House is a lovely, good value stay in Leith, a very good, lively and interesting part of Edinburgh. The room was comfortable. It was clean. Plenty of space. Good wardrobe and storage space. Very good shower. There is breakfast if you request it. It feels like they encourage you to go out! But many excellent choices within 5 to 10 minutes walk. Check out Coco Rico and don't be put off by the "industrial site" location. Excellent food. It would be worth clarifying payment dates with Matthew so that he doesn't try to take your payment earlier than Booking.com led you to believe. Having said that, he was so good to communicate with. Not really a problem.
Disliked: Nothing

Good price, very comfortable.

Liked: Very comfortable room in a good location. We were staying the weekend for a wedding. Reasonable rates given the rest of Edinburgh prices. Very comfortable bed in a large room with an en suite. Close to Leith Walk. Very warm welcome from the host, room was clean and cleaned during the day with replacement tea and biscuits. Bathroom was new and clean with nice complimentary toiletries and hair dryer in room. Would stay again!

Would stay again! We’d probably...

Liked: The suite, the location, the value, and the quality of our stay were top tier! The snacks, coffee, tea, and kettle were lifesavers every morning. The quick accessibility to the tram and the bus really helped get us around the city. A lot of people will book up on the hill or on Princes Street but Pilrig sits in the middle of Leith Walk which has everything!
Disliked: The only drawback was “American mattresses vs Scottish mattresses” which took getting used to BUT that can’t be helped. :)

Pleasant

Liked: Nice cup of tea on arrival. Large room comfy bed. But no view. Left bags with staff so we could go out until room ready to check in.
Disliked: Room not ready until late afternoon. Long way from city centre but all day bus tickets meant we could catch nearby transport regularly. Breakfast not included. Not told that we could ask for breakfast if we wanted. This made room overpriced for what we got. A good B & B should include breakfast.
