    The proprietor was charming and most helpful. The accommodations were exceptional. Great care taken on attention to detail. Breakfast was superb with a generous selection of a fresh fruit plate. Well located with a good bus route. Ample parking. Very happy with how quiet and relaxing it was. It has set the bar high for the rest if our vacation!

    Location was fantastic with a bus stop immediately outside. Great communication from owners. Felt like a family home not a holiday rental. Really comfy bed. Very spacious apartment. Everything you could want for a break away. Restaurants and supermarket opposite. Although on a main street, the area was quiet and there was no noise in the building. Would definitely recommend this property and would try and stay here again if we needed accommodation in Edinburgh. So much to see, but wear comfy shoes!

    From start to finish, everything was superb! The accommodations were spacious, clean. And well stocked. The staff were extremely friendly too. I couldn'tbe happierwith the stay. Staying at the Distillers House just made our trip to Scotland even better thanweimagined. Thanks again to the staff!! .

    This was a great little place to stay. We needed accomodation for the final two nights on return to Edinburgh after touring the rest of Scotland, and frankly these were the best accommodations we had in the country. Staff was very accommodating,, room is completely updated, and although small, was very comfortable. Food in the restaurant was very good, parking was available next door, and advice from the barkeepers for breakfast was very good.
