Everything was always tidy and ready for use. The owners provided contact information available for questions and were present enough that I didn't need to look for them. The area was very quiet and relaxing, perfect after busy crowded days in the city center.

the facility is a 10-minute walk from the strict tourist old town. in the close vicinity there is a shop, pubs, bakeries, restaurants. the facility itself is a cozy place. We were welcomed by the delectable owner, we got the keys earlier than expected. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. We highly recommend breakfast, fresh juices, compote, fruit and small snacks to choose from while we wait for the owner to personally prepare a wonderful English breakfast. in the room iron and ironing board, fridge, tea and coffee making set, hair dryer, cosmetics set. If we return to Edinburgh it will probably be Mr Tommy.

The guest house was in a great location. Next to the bus station, 5 minutes away from Waverley station. Our room was clean with firm comfy beds, exactly as we requested. Murray, our host, was helpful and polite, and looked after us so well. Our room had a great view from the windows. The breakfast was lovely. The rooms were quieter than I had expected given the location.

Good guest house that provides the comfort you expect on a city trip. Good location in a nice and quiet neighborhood. Public transport available in the area and the city centre a reasonable twenty minutes walk away. Friendly management.

Breakfast was terrific and was a bespoke breakfast, cooked to order. Nothing was too much trouble and the food was plentiful. All staff - Dave, Ian, Stephen and Jane- were welcoming and helpful and accommodated individual requests. It's a couple of miles from city centre, but this makes it a quiet location and there is a bus stop directly opposite the guesthouse with regular buses into the centre.

Mayfair Guest House is really well located, just minutes from the Balfour Street tram stop. The room was spacious and had everything we needed including tea/coffee and towels. I had my apprehensions about sharing a bathroom, but the downstairs bathroom was really clean. The host was welcoming when we arrived and showed us where things were. The room was also very quiet. I would recommend this to travellers who are looking for somewhere comfortable and don't mind that it is basic.
