Exceptionally clean, newly renovated basic room with flat screen tv and towel warmer. On a quiet residential street that’s a 15 minute bus ride from the center of Edinburgh.

Room clean but very airless and hot. Breakfast excellent. No choice of breakfast times however i.e. When I asked what time breakfast was served I was told 8.30am. I asked for later and was offered 8.45am. Shower water pressure very poor but water hot and plenty of towels and toiletries

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was ok but up too many stairs and so very small (as was the TV). No fan in the room either and this was a muggy night. Again, a small though tastefully enough done, bathroom. Only room for 2 cars to park so had to leave my car a bit away from the property on the street.

Cheap and cheerful
Hosts were very caring and lovely to chat to. Guest house is very dated, compared to other houses on the same street, old carpets and wallpaper etc. No work seems to have been done for a long time. Comfortable but drainage problems upstairs, bathroom smelled a lot and water came up through the bath when toilet was flushed with a smelly odur. Cheap and cheerful, nothing luxury but lovely hosts.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We were on the top floor but the only disadvantage was the drainage system. There was a drainage filter in the bathroom which was loud. It was ok for us in the room, but made you feel very conscious about the guests below as any water drained started the filter up.

Good lodgings at an affordable price
Very polite & helpful staff. Clean, cozy & comfortable rooms. A short walk to the city center & located very close to buses for those that prefer mass transit. The bathroom was a bit cramped, but the price couldn't be beat. Would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Short stay in Scotland
Check in was easy, the host was very kind and informative. The room was a tad old fashioned but it had a charm about it. I was comfortable and left to myself. I didn't feel like anyone was going to bother me which is what I wanted. The only issue was one of the housemates singing in the shower 😂 besides that it was a fine stay.

A PLEASANT, OVERNIGHT STAY AT FALCON CREST
The couple who ran the guest house were most welcoming and the husband even offered to meet us by car as we had got off at the wrong bus stop and had telephoned to ask directions. The booked room was good and the twin beds very comfortable. We enjoyed breakfast in the morning and left on foot heading in the right direction for the bus. There would have been ample parking on the quiet road had we driven. Good value for money and easy access.

Falcon Crest - a home from home in Edinburgh
I received a warm welcome by very friendly and helpful owners. A cosy little bedroom, a good value for money. Quiet residential area, a convenient bus connection to the city centre - bus stop line 27 very close. Happy to recommend this Guest House - if I ever come to Edinburgh again, I would love to stay here. Thank you - it is a real home from home.

Good one-night stopover
My husband and I needed a bed for a one-night stopover in Edinburgh. Falcon Crest offered everything we needed: simple clean accommodation, friendly service, quiet location with easy access to the city. Would recommend for business travellers.
