Braveheart Guest House is by no means a 4 star hotel... it is very much a house, and an old one at that. HOWEVER, it is perfectly comfortable, good breakfast, warm employees and a great location for walking around Edinburgh. I can't say enough about how friendly and accomodating the employees were; they really wanted you to be comfortable, well... More

My first time to visit Edinburgh for 4 nights stay and it was a blast. Thanks to Braveheart's fantastic location! Walking distance to city centre and Edinburgh Castle! Made it easy for me and my friends to explore the city. Hats off as well to the wonderful staff who were very accommodating to our requests.

Its best feature has to be location, just behind Edinburgh's Castle, you can walk to the city centre, as well as use different buses to move around. The breakfast was perfect to start your day and rooms were clean, just a place to spend the night after a long day walking all around the city!

This guesthouse was well suited for our needs during our Edinburgh visit as it is very conveniently situated close to the city centre and attractions. Although clean, the decorations were somewhat tacky and the bathrooms require a professional finish. Breakfasts were small but adequate. Some members of staff were really friendly and helpful, however, others came accross quite rude and... More

For my first time in Edinburgh, this B&B lived up to my expectations. Rooms were clean and a good size. The bathroom in my room was a little bit small but it worked out fine. The hosts were welcoming and very friendly. They offered suggestions on what to see and where to eat. If you like to walk, the trek... More

Stayed three nights at the braveheart with a large party. Got to see four of the rooms.. Great location! The day and evening managers were very nice and helpful. Beds were comfortable. I think this place hasn't been updated in a decade and needs a good scrub! The rooms were small with dust and cobwebs.. Bathrooms had broken tiles &... More

I stayed here for a conference. Despite arriving very very late, the owner made sure I could easily access the room. The room was very well furnished, and very pleasent. There was a leaky sink in the corner, but this was easily solved by wrapping a towel around it! The full scottish breakfast was tasty, and well served.
