I cannot really put into words how perfect this guesthouse was. I came to Edinburgh to see the Fringe and i must say the Bloosom Guest House was fantastic and exactly what I needed

Excellent Edinburgh
The hotel was ideally situated for us as we were travelling on a budget and don't mind walking or using public transport. The room was clean & tidy, and it had everything we needed. The host is welcoming and friendly.
