The Scholar

8/10 Good

"A very nice place and good service"

The Abbey Residence

8/10 Good

"Booked a single room for one night, bed was comfy and had all the everything I needed for the night. Staff were really helpful, polite and accommodating. Cleanliness of the room wasn't great, and found that walls/doors were really thin so hard to sleep due to noise in corridor/stairs/other rooms. Apart from this no issues, great location and free parking - I feel the standard of the rooms is reflected in the price."

"It was a very cool experience to stay the night in a castle and explore the grounds around the castle. I found trails just over the foot bridge that lead all the way into town. It was the most beautiful trail walk I have taken in a long long time. Stunning!"

Kingsley Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location for travelling in and out of Edinburgh city centre, with a bus stop right outside the guesthouse. Check in with slick and smooth and Kingsley were very accommodating with an early check in after my delayed journey to Edinburgh. My room was super cute, cosy, clean and comfortable! Loved the little Scottish touches of a bottle of irn bru, water and biscuits! I had the best nights sleep after a fun filled day in the capital and would highly recommend staying here! Looking forward to another trip soon!"

"We've stayed at the Prestonfield several times. This is a fantastic property with a highly trained and experienced staff who are genuinely pleased to help make every stay a memorable one. We'll be back again!"
