Our stay at Dorstan House was perfect. On site parking a huge bonus, so easy to get the bus from the end of the street into the city (using the App - fabulous). Our bedroom had what looked like a brand new shower room, exceptionally clean. Next time we'd have a twin room as a double bed is too small for us, but otherwise it was brilliant. And having a cafetiere for coffee is a lovely touch, as was the breakfast tray with porridge, croissant, cereal bar and satsuma! Would definitely return on our next visit.

Dorstan House is a very comfortable guest house in a quiet neighborhood about 15 minutes by bus from the center of Edinburgh. Several major bus lines run just a block away. The owner is very friendly and helpful. Dorstan House allows you both to enjoy Edinburgh and avoid the crowds that are elsewhere in the city.

I was amazed how clean this place was and also the price was excellent the owner very much hands on and extremely helpful I also witnessed him loading an app on phone for some German tourists to save them a fortune on city transport a colleague had booked in to a major hotel chain and paid £300 for the night and the room was filthy 100%recommend as value for money and how clean it was don’t expect a huge room and breakfast box is basic but at the price plenty money left to eat out
