Had a lovely stay here. Fortunate to get a room looking out to Arthur's seat. Checked in a bit early but this was no issue for the host who kindly accommodated. Parking was easy and location is just a short walk into Edinburgh
Lovely host who made my stay comfortable! Hotel was clean and well kept. A short walk to the city center. Iâd stay here again! A good choice for the price and location!
Amazing room for the price, very comfy, extremely friendly and helpful hosts. A little far to walk to the city centre, but has a direct bus stop right opposite
The owner of the hotel was extremely welcoming and looked after us for the entire duration of the stay. He was also very helpful and gave us lots of advice about getting around Edinburgh. The hotel is situated a 12-minute bus ride from the city centre, in a very safe quiet area of town. The room was warm and clean and the beds were very comfortable.
stayed for a week at Capital House with my college age son while he was looking for a long term rental to attend the University. the Location was perfect for walking to campus. The room was spacious and comfortable with the European charm of large windows and ornamental plaster mouldings. Ali, the owner, was super helpful with recommendations, both he and his wife were so friendly it was like staying with family. My family will definitely stay here again when we visit our son at school.
Les points faibles : Personnel et service et confort de la chambre
LACKS PRIVATE BATH AND TOILET...UNHELPFUL OWNER
THE ROOM WAS GOOD AND WE HAD A "PRIVATE SHOWER ROOM" THAT WAS OUTSIDE THE BEDROOM. IF YOU, LIKE US, LIKE TO HAVE A PRIVATE BATH AND TOILET ALL TO OURSELVES. YOU BETTER ASK THE OWNER BEFORE CHECKING IN.
BUT WE WERE DRIVING A CAR SO I HAD CLICKED ON HOTELS.COM FOR "FREE PARKING". THAT TO ME MEANS THAT FREE PARKING IS AVAILABLE TO USE TO PARK IN. NO WAY AT THIS PLACE....THE OWNER SAID "YOU HAVE FREE PARKING ON THE STREETS IF YOU CAN FIND A PLACE FOR YOURSELF." GEE...THANKS....HE KNEW I HAD A CAR BUT COULD CARE LESS ABOUT MY PROBLEM TO PARK THE CAR! ALSO...HE KNEW I HAD A CAR BUT ...HE NEVER REMINDED ME THAT EDINBURGH CASTEL IS ABOUT A 30 MINUTE WALK...WALK....WALK..FROM THE PROPERTY. SO I SPENT TIME AND MONEY AS "SWEAT AND TEARS" TO DRIVE MY CAR TO THE EDINBROUGH CASTEL AND FIND A DIFFICULT TO FIND PARKING SPOT! AND I HAD JUST SPOKEN WITH THE OWNER...AND HE NEVER INFORMED ME THAT I COULD HAVE LEFT MY CAR PARKED IN ONE OF THE PARKING SPACES IN FRONT OF THE PLACE! NOT GOOD SERVICE...??? WHEN WE RETURNED IN THE EVENING I DID FIND ON MY OWN A PARKING SPACE AROUND THE CORNER. BYE THE WAY....ALL...ALL...ALL CARS ON THE STREET MUST...MUST...MUST...BE MOVED FROM ABOUT 10 AM TO 1PM...VERY INCONVENIENT IF YOU ARE DRIVING.
The owners are very kind and helpful. The rooms are nice and comfortable. If you're not afraid of a walk, it's within walking distance (less than 30 mins) of the old city, the castle, etc. There is no shampoo provided, so bring your own. We enjoyed our stay here.
