The breakfast was staggeringly good. Cooked fresh to order, with high quality ingredients. The home made banana cake is awesome. Small dining room means it is not overcrowded and a pleasant place to eat food. Lovely little bar which is great for a nightcap and you will find friendly other guests who are good company. Buses are frequent - it is pretty much turn up and travel to the town centre. Perfect location for Arthur's Seat. The neighbour hood is lovely and the local - The Salisbury's Arms - is a great pub. Kevin is a great host - he makes you feel very welcome, gives great advice and is everything a B & B host should be. The whole team are great and you are made to feel like family.

Our room was spacious and very comfortable. It was remarkable how quiet our room was and the 12 foot high ceilings added to the ambiance. The shower was quite excellent: full enclosure, choice of overhead rain shower or shower wand, both with normal to fabulous water pressure. The bed was king size and very comfortable, and the breakfasts were delicious. The hosts Susan and Kevin were delightful and the staff very helpful. We stayed multiple nights and the hosts graciously stored extra baggage for us while we traveled. Additionally, the staff assisted us in utilizing the local bus service, as well as, provide taxi service for us. Finally, the small pub was perfect for a good pint and/or Scottish whiskey.

Ceilidh-Donia is a very old hotel and although it has been renovated to modern standards there was no elevator (lift). The staff assisted in taking our luggage up the stairs, but a lift would have been the best option.

I was so happy with my stay. The hotel/B&B is run by a lovely couple called Kevin and Susan and nothing was too much trouble for them. They were so welcoming, helpful and friendly. It was one of my best experiences staying away from home. The location is super too - it is peaceful and there are some wonderful walks nearby (I wish I'd had time for more). It is a quick bus ride into the centre of Edinburgh to go to all the sites as well. One thing - there is no dinner offered but you can order take away and there are loads of places to eat nearby and Kevin and Susan will provide trays, cutlery etc (and they have a bar open until 10pm). Breakfast was delicious (lots of choice) in a lovely bright room and I felt welcomed. My room was a single room and it was charming, clean and you could open your window! (sounds silly but so many hotels are too hot and you can't get any fresh air).

I liked everything. A tiny thing (but I think this would be the case with any B&B) is that the walls are quite thin so you can hear your neighbours. That's OK but the bathrooms have loud fans so I did get woken up if someone put on their bathroom light late at night. I'm not sure if fans can be quieter so this is merely something I wanted to pass on.

The Hotel owner/manager was extremely helpful and went beyond what could have been expected. The room was very comfortable and the breakfasts were fantastic. Hotel is a short walk to Bus Stop and then only 5-6 stops to the Royal Mile. There is also a fantastic Golf Club (2025 Scottish Golf Club of the year) literally around the corner (100 metres) if you're keen on a game while in Edinburgh.

If you have any mobility issues ask for a room downstairs as the staircase is long and pretty steep. (Not uncommon in our travels)

The hotel was perfect for us in every way. First time in Edinburgh and didn't disappoint. The hotel was quiet at night, clean and comfortable. Fantastic breakfast included with our stay with good choices. The bar in the hotel was also a nice place to start the evening with our friends who also stayed there before venturing out. Kevin and his wife were excellent hosts and we will definitely be returning when we visit Edinburgh again. There is no lift as it is an old building so being on the 2nd floor may be a challenge if you have mobility issues, we were OK as we stayed on the 1st floor, however you can request a ground flood if required when booking so all good. There is a bus stop just a couple of minutes walk with regular buses into the centre which takes around 10/15 minutes. Really easy to get around Edinburgh with buses, trams and Uber taxis

Great, cozy, quiet hotel. Absolute fair room prizes. Fantastic hosts, always at your service :-) Besides the general breakfast buffet, special dishes (from a menu card) were cooked according to your personal preferences. (Btw, we can strongly recommend the porridge ;-) One day we had to leave the hotel at 7 AM (before the official breakfast) in order to go on a full day trip into the Highlands. However, the hosts had then made a breakfast bag ready in the morning, ready to take with us!

The triple room was perfect for our stay and prepared as 3 singles, as requested. All the facilities in the room were perfect, including the tea tray and the bathroom facilities. Beds were very comfortable. The breakfast was fabulous. Plenty of choice from the buffet of cereals, fruits, pastries and a range of beverages. Also included gluten free options. The table menu for the hot breakfast offered a good choice for all tastes. The staff were friendly throughout our stay and helpful regarding our needs and requests. Nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend this establishment.

We landed on the day of red weather alert, public transport services were stopped, most of the places shut down for the day. Even though it was a busy breakfast service, we were met with a big smile, were offered tea and coffe and could sit in the lobby and warm up without any issues. We left our backpacks, and after coming back from a bit of exploring, they were brought up to our room - which was ready a lot earlier than check-in time. All in all great stay, even greater hosts, delicious breakfast. Will definitely come back again once we're in Edinburgh.

The owners are incredibly friendly and welcoming, we felt home right away! We had a beautiful room with high ceilings and a large window overlooking the backyard (sipping a tea there in Edinburgh autumn was a dream). Very good choice for breakfast, available to take away if you have a day trip. You have 3/4 buses that can take you to the Old Town in less than 20 minutes, and Holyrood park is just 10 minutes walking away.

We loved everything, I'm so glad we found it! The staff are so friendly and welcoming. The location is just outside of the town centre but buses are very frequent and the bus stop is only 3 minutes away. We were recommended to download bus and tram app for Edinburgh which was really useful. Ubers are pretty cheap (only a couple of £ dearer than bus fare for 2) The hotel is very clean, rooms are comfortable and the breakfast very good. We'd 100% come back if we're ever this way again.

Nothing!
