   Minto House was perfect for our 6 night stay. The host was very kind and accomodating. The room was always kept warm and comfy. The bathroom was nice and modern with an easy to use shower and a lovely large mirror. We always came back to a tidy room with the coffee and loo roll restocked. It was absolutely perfect for us as we like to take our time getting ready and walking into town. There are plenty of nice places to grab food or drink along the way too, and the walk to the Royal Mile only took 20 minutes, which I wouldn't say is long at all. I don't think the room was as dated as people say, I think it had a cosy historic charm and I loved how it felt like a home rather than a hotel. Will definitely be staying here again next time we visit Edinburgh.

   Friendly host, very comfortable bed, private bathroom and shower. A nice distance from city centre with plenty of leaflets with information. Clean room and tea and coffee was topped up each day. Very good value for money.

   With no exaggeration, I had a tremendous stay. Rooms were like home, owners were so accommodating. Everything I asked for , they gave it! The area is nice and quiet despite being walking distance from both university campuses and main roads. Lots of food places nearby and a bus stop right outside that goes to all the major spots in Edinburgh. Great value for money and reasonably priced, recommend it to all!

   Great experience! Very clean, really comfy beds, nice spacious rooms and very close to city centre! Bus stop is just across the road which takes you anywhere in Edinburgh! Would definitely recommend!!

   We stayed at one of the properties owned by Minto, but marketed under the name of Bala House. Our suite was excellent. Newly refurbished, clean and comfortable. The location is convenient to central Edinburgh, and the area has a number of good places to eat. (Try the Olde Bell - best pub food I have had in a long time) No breakfast, but that isn't a great problem because there are a number of coffee bars in the vicinity

   A very much belated review; I stayed in this lovely B&B in the autumn of 2012 (I think before Google Reviews existed!) for a whole month as an international student on exchange with Edinburgh University. Spacious, clean & simple room with a pretty view overlooking the front garden & street. All amenities are there, including radiator heaters (great for warming up clothes in the morning or drying off socks!), & owner Nadia was absolutely wonderful & helpful. Free wifi (although a bit patchy in my room, I sat on the staircase for better reception), 15 minutes walking distance to South Bridge, Waverley Station & the city centre, & there are bus stops right outside going both directions. Will be my first accommodation choice for future trips to Edinburgh.
