The building is beautiful and has a unique charm.

The atmosphere was extremely unwelcoming and hostile towards my identity.

small, cozy haven near edinburgh's historic treasures with friendly faces

Warm, welcoming atmosphere, excellent breakfast.

Arriving at Emmaus House was a pleasant surprise, as the location was fantastic and the breakfast truly delightful, especially the fresh fruit salad. The rooms were warm and comfortable, though a bit basic without a TV. It felt homey, with friendly staff who made my stay enjoyable.

My stay was highlighted by the fantastic breakfast variety and the comfortable, cozy room with a great shower! I’d definitely return for the delightful atmosphere!

The cozy room was a lovely surprise and felt really homey. Plus, loved the shared stories at breakfast!

had a really friendly welcome, the place was super clean n cozy, breakfast was filling and it felt like home sittin at the big table with other guests. comfy room n good wifi too! it was quiet n a nice change from busy hotels.

the shower was great but the sink was too small to fill the kettle easily. also, liked 2 watch a bit of tv but no tv in the room.

I stayed in a Double Room and it was cozy and clean. The bed was very comfortable. One downside was that there was no TV, which I missed after long days out. the bathroom sink was tiny, making it tricky to fill the kettle. the shower had great pressure and was lovely and warm. pretty good vibes!

The staff demonstrated exceptional friendliness, creating a welcoming environment. Rooms were spotless, reflecting a high level of cleanliness. the absence of amenities like a clothes washer and dryer was notable for someone used to hotels. While conveniently located near city attractions and transport, parking was almost nonexistent, which could complicate things for those with a hire car.

This place suits me perfectly with great wi-fi, friendly service, and lovely ambiance. On my first stay, the staff helped me with directions for attractions, which I still remember. I always come back for a city break!

Wi-fi was reliable, but breakfast could've been better.

my stay here was wonderful! i previously stayed in other places around edinburgh, but this guest house exceeded my expectations with its cozy vibe and friendly atmosphere. the communal breakfast table allowed for great conversations with fellow travellers, making it feel like home.

the shared bathroom was occasionally busy.

Cozy atmosphere and fantastic breakfast

My stay was wonderful! The guesthouse had a cozy vibe and a friendly atmosphere, with a lovely communal breakfast table where I could share stories with other travelers. Breakfast was filling, with a great variety of options, including fresh fruit and pastries. The location was quite convenient, just a short walk from major attractions, although the shared bathroom was occasionally busy.

Comfortable Stay with Room for Improvement

Had a cozy stay in a delightful room, though my shower experience was frustrating due to inconsistent water pressure. The staff were very helpful, especially Andrew, who offered alternatives. I enjoyed a lovely breakfast at a nearby café—perfect for fueling your day out in the city!

Cozy vibes and great company

Andrew greeted us with tea and biscuits by the fire, which was perf on a chilly March night. Breakfasts at the communal table were super cool, and the morning prayers really set a positive tone for the day. Only thing, the bathroom could use a bit of an update.
