Victorian Bed and Breakfast surrounded by beautiful gardens. Wonderful breakfast room and food. Very friendly couple who joined me for breakfast. Olive recommended I to go to the Dome Restaurant in the New Town of Edinburgh if I had a chance. I did get to the Dome Restaurant and it was absolutely a wonderful experience. Thank you so much Olive.... More

In our three week trip through UK and Ireland, Ard-Na-Said has the best room. We stayed in the Wallace room, which had a four-poster canopy bed under a decorated ceiling with a Victorian window. My wife and I felt we were not worthy to stay in this room. The breakfast is great. Ard-Na-Said provide samples of haggis and black pudding.... More

Lovely and comfortable rooms and bathrooms. Tasty breakfasts. Gracious hosts. Olive is very organized and clearly understands a traveling family's needs, which is a great help. We walked to restaurants nearby (10-15 minute walk) - rained during dinner but always stopped for our walk back. Will definitely go back!

The moment we walked up the owner greeted us and took us up to our room. She was very friendly and we felt instantly at home. This B&B is not far from the city centre but definitely not one you want to walk from especially if you have luggage. Get a taxi there and take the bus to the city... More

We had a nice little room with a very nice bathroom and good breakfast - last but not least a very caring and helpful host. There is a bus stop near the B&B making it easy to reach the city centre, as the B&B is a bit outside the real city centre. I would recommend Ard-na-said to everyone who has... More

We agree with everyone, what a super B&B- all the benefits of a 5 star hotel, but in a private house in a quiet road, 10 mins bus to centre. Jim and Olive are very welcoming and friendly. The house is warm and beautifully decorated, we were in the 4 poster for a sightseeing weekend. The room is huge, comfy... More

stayed for 3 nights at Ard-na-said for a shopping trip in Edinburgh. Have stayed at a few places and this is definately the best. The room was lovely with a large ensuite bathroom.

Ard-na-Said was a wonderful bed and breakfast. The owners were friendly. The room was romantic and extremely comfortable. The location was convenient with easy bus access to the city. Our whole experience was wonderful and we would definitely stay there again.

My husband and I stayed at Ardnasaid four nights in November. Upon arrival we were quickly greeted and Jim kindly helped us carry our bags to the second floor and showed us all of the maps and helpful information for getting around in Edinburgh. Our room was very nicely decorated and had coffee, tea, cream, hot chocolate and cookies there... More

We stayed for two nights at the end of October and had a wonderful time. The Wallace Room was amazing, with a view of Arthur's Seat, and the bed was huge! The room was spotlessly clean and very warm, which was most welcome given the blustery weather! Our hosts were very welcoming and friendly and the breakfast was wonderful (don't... More
