Book Kirknewton Bed & Breakfast

"Overall was very pleased with our 2 night stay. The room was a bit too warm for us even although the window was open, so maybe the addition of a fan would be a consideration. Also the very excellent shower could have benefitted from a slightly deeper shower tray. The bathroom floor was a bit flooded and it if it hadn’t been for the shower mat, the consequences could have been worse. Saying that, the room was very clean, extremely well stocked with bathroom accessories , tea/coffee etc sachets,...

"David was an outstanding host and accounted for all of our needs during our stay. Thank you!!"

"Easy to find, great location, good comms for door entry, clean, tody and quiet, excellent value."

"Mary, our host, was lovely. Very friendly and helpful. The Gables is a cute, quaint building. Our room and bed were on the small side but both were comfortable. Easy bus ride from Edinburgh and train ride from Glasgow. "

"Beautiful old building. Great area. Rooms were quite nice and clean. Just no staff were ever present in our three night stay. An elderly couple who couldn’t speak English sat in the front lobby, often. I’m not sure if they worked there cleaning rooms or were a guest but if the worked there they made no attempt to communicate or help out, which was an issue because the front door to the building on a busy street was always left open"

"Reception was great. And very accommodating. Just needs a little sprucing up. New beds and pillows and carpet would be lovely. We needed a place to stay for 1 night and it fit that purpose. I left my electric toothbrush there and was able to retrieve it the next day. Very much appreciated. "

"Perfect place to sleep after a busy day of sightseeing! The convenience of storing our luggage was very appreciated "

"I love my stay here! My room was clean, comfortable and had the most comfortable bed ever! I highly recommend!"

"very nice couple Alan Avril, made us feel at home fantastic breakfast"

"Beautiful location and a very comfortable bed, however, for a 4* rating hotel in quite a small town location, one would expect a more personal-touch type of a customer service. Room was very comfortable but upon closer inspection of the bedroom/bathroom aspects, quality comes closer to 3* level. "

"All was good "

"Quiet "

"Duncan was a great host. Great breakfast in the morning. Would recommend to anyone in Edinburgh. "

"James and Angela were just perfect!!! The cottage was cozy and close to a few Outlander locations which was a big deal to us. Conveniently close to great dining options as well!!! "

"I like the location. The bus is just next to the house. The responsable gave us some information about the famous attractions in Edinburgh. He has a dog called Tom. He's very friendly. It was the first time i wasn't scared of a dog. I noticed just that the room isn't warm enough. But in general i liked the experience"

"Great host, Bedroom spacious and comfortable Shower was powerful and clean"

"Really nice place and lovely hosts. Clean and quiet, away from the bustle. of the city but close enough to easily access Edinburgh as well as walking distance to the village of East Calder with restaurants and pubs. Breakfast was lovely and offered a nice variety. Try the Haggis, it's delicious. "

"Cath is a wonderful hostess, providing a warm environment and excellent guidance in how to enjoy our stay."

"Lovely little hideaway, ideal for breaking those long trips up to Scotland. Great hosts and wow, what a breafast "

"Very modern and spacious. Amazing location!"

"Great view from windows. Comfortable beds. Well appointed en-suite but could benefit from hand hold in shower. Also plumbing was very noisy. Very helpful staff and beautiful sitting are on ground floor. Over all a lovely place to stay and very close to historic and interesting places to visit and many good places to eat. "

"Well appointed hotel conveniently located on the Royal Mile. "
