Eliza House

Hotel was good but gor 3 OAPs visiting friends being on anupper floor with no lift was a bit of a problem. The man on reception helped with our cases but westill had to get ourselves up there. I will know to ask for roms on ground floor if I go there again.

We loved that the location was only a two minute walk from the tram/train station in Haymarket. Staff was kind and room was very clean. Quiet location. Old building so the walk to our room was a bit of a maze but we chuckled about it. Would stay again.

The property is in a great location , we had an issue with our room that was rectified right away . The night person was awesome and friendly he was new and didn’t know the protocol asked us to check with the manager in the morning. She got a little defensive about it . Given the age of the building it is to be expected to have some quirks may I suggest new caulking around the tubs , check the tv reception in the rooms provide an avail channel guide , if you are booking and want to avoid 70 steep steps to your room request a mid level or lower floor to save the legs . Overall we had a pleasant stay .

Smells like a nursing home. Seems to be falling apart a bit. The beds were soft and the staff carried our bags to our room because there is no elevator. Overall a nice stay. Shower curtains need to be changed.. moldy. Great location!

The good: quiet, comfortable, friendly and close to the tram system. I felt safe and comfortable. They are not kidding about the stairs! There are a lot of them!

A lovely little guesthouse in a Terrace property a stones throw from haymarket, friendly staff very chatty, one odd thing is you have to drop your key in at reception each time you go out as a "security" mesure but it only takes a couple mins on entry and exit. For the price I've stopped in more expensive places that have been lower quality.

Cosy, clean room which had to everything we needed. Helpful staff. Lots of stairs to keep you fit! Appreciated the complimentary coffee and pastries.

Check-in was very easy, super friendly staff. We did not understand the ratings because everything important about the House ( no elevator ) came in an Mail 2 Days before the arrival. Just one thing about the House, we think its because you cant open the Windows: there is a bit Mould in the Bathroom corners. Not dramatic, but its there. The Rest was all Perfect. 3 min Walk to the Tram Or Bus Station.

A nice hotel in a building with a lot of character. I liked the retro feel of the bedrooms but can see why other may say it's dated. It does have a lot of stairs and no elevator (as advertised) but this was not an issue for us. Staff were welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The location is good at about 20mins walk to the Scott monument or Grassmarket.

Guests should be warned about the 70 stair climb to your room. Restaurants are located nearby. Have to leave your room key if you leave the property.

Convenient location, large room. Very strong smell of what it seemed to be urine on the corridors

Good location at Haymarket, quietly situated in a side street. One room very good, the other unfortunately not (window could not be opened, problem with the cleanliness of the bathroom and water stain on the ceiling).

The room was very spacious with comfortable beds. The one drawback was that there was some mold in the shower. The staff was helpful.

Room was clean and cute, staff were nice and never any fuss. Nice quiet location with regular and close by trams, trains and buses to anywhere you need to get to in the city.

There was a terrible smell that pervaded the whole building. It was awful. The coffee in the foyer was not drinkable. The sheets had little black marks, could have been dwad bed bugs. The lovely man on the desk took our bags up 3 flights on the first day which was lovely.

Stay was terrible the building smelt as soon as the you open the front door but wait when you get in your room is got worse. The rooms smelt of mould it was disgusting.

The location of this property is brilliant for the close proximity to the tram / train station and a couple of lovely pubs opposite - it’s also within easy walking distance of a local Costcutter and Boots so great for any last minute provisions. The staff were SUPER friendly but the overarching issue was the smell. There is a terrible cat pee smell which greets you once through reception and waking to and from your room was very unpleasant. They are aware of it as there are air fresheners trying to mask the smell which do not help, and whilst it didn’t smell in our room I would probably not stay again for this reason. The heater in our room didn’t work, I almost got burnt when the shower temp suddenly changed mid shower and the decor is very tired. Needs a good clean and a refurb.

situated in good area, loads of possibilities to eat out or to get groceries, easy to teach the town center Haymarket Station is right around the corner (good connection to public transport within Edinburgh and to other cities) very friendly members of staff complementary snacks and coffee in the morning -window wouldn't open for the first few days cause it had been painted over during renovations -the room still seemed very old and worn off despite the renovations -floors were wonky -the toilet was tilted to one side -mould on the grout all around the bathtub -a gigantic water damage on the ceiling of both the bedroom and bathroom that got progressively worse during our stay which also started to grow mould

This is a convenient option for any visits to Edinburgh. The location next to the Haymarket station is perfect -- easily accessible by train and the airport buses. The hotel itself is a cute old building. I never managed to get hot water in my shower, but other than that I loved it.

The heater did not work in ours and others that were in our group,rooms. The windows were left open and couldnt shut! The beds were hard as a rock. The showers had no preasure and barely got warm. Window covering in the bathroom was very insufficient. We received conflicting information about when we would be charged and how we were going to be refunded. I would not stay here again.

Good location. Comfortable bed and pillows. Quiet rooms. Had some free pastries and hot drinks by the reception. Downside is the weak flushing of the toilet and water can get too hot in the tap and the hot and cold faucet are separate so you cannot mixed them to control the temperature.

We loved the convenience of the location steps from Haymarket train station, yet felt safe and had everything we needed within walking distance. Staff were great. Our room was clean, comfortable and huge, and we felt it was good value for our budget. This is a heritage spot so don’t expect perfection in the details, but we loved the price, location, and clean comfy room.

We loved the location, great access to the downtown area. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel and rooms very clean with nice big towels but the hotel is due for an upgrade. We founds the beds to hard.

Place needs an upgrade half the lights didn’t work, the tap needed fixing to sink no towel rail

Spacious room in nice area. Could do with some updating.

Good location near Haymarket. We were there for a concert at Murrayfield and this was a good location to get there, we walked it in about 20 minutes. Plenty of pubs, restaurants and shops nearby. Easy to get along to Princess Street. Room was quite big with high ceilings and very comfortable. Plenty of towels supplied and tea & coffee in the room. Staff were very helpful and pleasant. I would definitely recommend this hotel and we would definitely stay here again.

Huge room with all the amenities needed. Great location, easy access to tram downtown and bus connections for everywhere, including the airport. The staff were very helpful and friendly. I'd definitely stay again.

Wonderful en suite room with super tall ceilings! Maybe 2 minutes to walk to the train and tram stops. Very easy walk to the Castle area!

Good location, friendly and helpful staff. Great price. Awesome bathtub!

Thanks for the great stay! Easy check in/out and great location

Great value slightly quirky but It's the cheapest hotel in the area. Yes it could do with a lick of paint and bathrooms need an upgrade but it's clean. Best part is the manned reception with friendly helpful staff and real keys - no faffing with cards and codes. This was my 2nd stay, hope to be back again next year

Great place to stay, not too far from the main tourist areas so you can easily walk, parking is expensive but it is everywhere in Edinburgh, the staff were nice and helpful and the rooms are a great size

We really enjoyed the location, just steps from the tram to the airport and so close to everything! The decor was beautiful and the provision of the space heater was greatly appreciated

Hotel is in good walkable location. Quiet area. Restaurants close and transportation.

Fabulous location about 1.5 miles from Royal Mile. Older building with a lot of character - very "scottish".

It was perfect for what we needed, which was a clean place to stay and the tram line was very close. The location was a little ways from old town, but it was walkable or we could take the tram to get closer. There were some good restaurants and bars close by.

A nice piece of heritage property that is so convenient for transportation and dining, and walking to Dean Village. Well worth the value compared to other properties around. Getting breakfast thrown in was a pleasant surprise. Wifi was a bit unstable where I was on the top floor and TV could be bigger.

Good location. Comfortable bed and pillows. Quiet rooms. Had some free pastries and hot drinks by the reception. Downside is the weak flushing of the toilet and water can get too hot in the tap and the hot and cold faucet are separate so you cannot mixed them to control the temperature.

Stayed at Eliza House on Friday night last week. Its a 3 storey hotel in a terrace of grand Victorian buildings 2 min from Haymarket railway station. First impressions not great. Dead/ rotting plants in plastics baskets on floor outside front door. Unpleasant musty smells in foyer, scruffy reception desk/back office. However bones of the building are good, nice tartan carpets, high ceilings. My ground floor room was at back, was quiet, view of grassy wasteland. Very comfy bed within a brass 4 poster frame. Shower was super powerful. However the TV not plugged hence a cable search round the back of a curtain. The TV aerial was so frayed I expected sparks when i touched it. The next morning the TV went on mute and refused to put sound back on. The bathroom suite was dark brown toilet, cream toilet seat, pink bath and dark brown wash basis all from about 1975. Room was cold and I tried and failed to get the heater to work. The bathroom ceiling spot lights were not actually attached to the ceiling so dangled from their electrical power cables. I slept well and the room was pretty clean. Good location for pubs/ restaurants. I gave the continental breakfast a miss. OK its a cheap place to stay but these basic maintenance issues should be fixed. With so many cheap clean 3 star chain hotels there is no excuse as a 30 second check on all electrical equipt would have identified the issues. I advised the reception staff of the faults

Cosy, clean room which had to everything we needed. Helpful staff. Lots of stairs to keep you fit! Appreciated the complimentary coffee and pastries.
