What guests think

Travellers describe Acer Lodge Guest House as a clean, comfortable base with exceptionally friendly, accommodating hosts, convenient bus access into Edinburgh, and handy proximity to the airport, though its outskirts location on a busy road won't suit everyone.

Guests frequently praise the tasty, well-prepared breakfast, while noting it is optional and charged separately. Rooms are often quiet despite the main road, and cleanliness earns strong feedback, with a few mentions of rough towels or isolated bugs. A practical, comfortable choice outside the center.

Amazing service from the guest house. Fantastic communication before and during the trip including letting us leave the car and head off to Murrayfield before check in with a quick show around so that we knew where to go.

We loved our stay at Acer Lodge. The room was spotless and the beds were comfortable. Breakfast was delicious each morning. And the hosts were super nice and friendly. We definitely would stay here again and I will always choose to stay at a B&B over a corporate hotel.

Had a huge dead spider in the hotel pamphlet when we walked in. Premium pricing hotel but cleanliness was not great. Had bugs throughout stay and hotel owner mentioned that having bugs in the summer was the norm in Edinburgh.

Room was very small. It was clean, but the towels were small and rough and the bedding was very well used. The pillows were almost flat. Breakfast was not included, so we didn’t bother with it. The owners really stuck it to us on the weekend rate which was almost double the price of a weekday stay. This made the size and condition of our room and the lack of breakfast even harder to swallow. It is not hard to catch the train the the city. Would be worth it, except for the price we paid we could have stayed much closer. Oh, and they also had checkout at 10 am!

Nice accommodation. Confusing checkin process. On the outskirts of Edinburgh. A bus in to city center located across busy street. Located on a very busy street/highway. We were in an attic room which became very hot and uncomfortable. A fan was provided which helped. Main complaint is the breakfast cost which you are presented with when you leave. 12.99 GP ( about $17.50) each day you eat. If you don't care about an included breakfast this is a nice place.

Anjoe and Thomas were great and friendly! They were so accommodating, letting us drop our bags earlier than our check in time. The room was spacious and clean and the optional breakfast was very convenient and good. There is a bus stop literally across the street that takes you right to downtown Edinburgh. So glad we stayed and their little pup Simba is just the cutest!

I loved staying here. I thought it would be loud because of the busy street out front; however, it was quiet and comfortable in my room. You are a 45 minute walk from the bay, and the town just to the North has an incredibly charming feel and pub. The owners cook a fantastic breakfast, and will go out of their way to give you the best advice. It will save you a bit of $$$ from staying in the more bustling areas like Haymarket, but you will get really good advice from the owners no matter what you do.
