Another Room

It’s very cozy and nice.

My son and husband stayed here a few weeks ago and my son wanted me to pass on this review on his behalf. Staying at Another Room was the best welcome to Scotland that I could’ve asked for. As most other reviews will mention, the room was very clean, well-furnished and -equipped, and comfortable to stay in, and the location is very convenient too; just a short bus ride gets you straight to the centre, and you’re within easy walking distance of the beautiful Portobello Beach – but what’s truly special about Another Room is the level of truly personal hospitality. Lynne and Rob are incredibly friendly and sociable people who are so incredibly welcoming from the moment you meet them. They offer such interesting anecdotes and stories, and, being Edinburgh locals, are really very helpful sources of advice and knowledge on what to do in the city, and, in my case, getting settled in Edinburgh. Lynne’s tip about IKEA alone saved me a huge amount of hassle moving in! They don’t stop there, though – after all, these are two hosts who make above and beyond seem like the bare minimum! Not only do they personally make a wonderful full breakfast for every guest every morning – as well as home-baking plenty of delicious scones and pancakes with homemade jam! – but they went out of their way to make us a special breakfast, a Lorne sausage and egg roll and blueberry porridge, as an example of a breakfast that I could easily make – and have made! – living alone. These specific choices of breakfasts were also very individual; I had mentioned the previous day when we were chatting about how I’d really enjoyed blueberry porridge my first time in Edinburgh, and I had asked Lynne on our first day what the Lorne sausage was, as it’s quite a specific Scottish food that I hadn’t come across before – and just from that Lynne and Rob very kindly decided to personalise my breakfast!

Wonderful location and the proprietors, Linne and Rob, are wonderful. Warm and welcoming with good suggestions for things to do in Edinburgh.

Fantastic location, lovely big room. Breakfast was superb with home made scones, bread and jam. Hosts were lovely and made us feel very much at home. Had some great conversations over breakfast.

Very Nice owners Easy to take a bus to city Centre Free parking at street in front of b&b Real Scottish breakfast

A great location, with a bus stop no.26 only a few metres away. The beach is also not far away. The owners went above and beyond to help out not to mention the amazing breakfast!

Scones and pancakes were amazing.

Our stay was exceptional. The hosts were very kind and welcoming. The house was very clean . We had a wonderful stay. Hope to visit again.

great house, great host, great handmake breakfast. it is incomparable to have a conversation with local experts in the morning before your adventure in a new city.

Our stay at ”another room” was just wonderful, me and my mum felt so incredibly cared for as they always made sure we had everything we needed and more. You look forward every morning to waking up to eat the wonderful breakfast offered that they so kindly adjust to your needs. When me and my mum had to wake up early to catch a day trip bus the woman of the house was so kind to send us a whole bag of delicious foods and sweets :) During breakfast time we got to hear funny stories and have nice discussions with the lovely owners. The hotel was incredibly cozy and clean and it really felt welcoming. When coming in to our room we were greeted with some bathroom essantials with a basket of sewing thread incase your clothes needed a fix, Along with three folders of different recommendations of resturants and places to visit. Absoloutley no complaints about this place, the owners were the sweetest people you’ll ever meet and we strongly advice to stay at their bed and breakfast for a amazing experience xx Kind regards, Freja and Anne :)

Excellent home made and home cooked breakfast ( better than most hotels we’ve stayed in!). The hosts were extremely hospitable and helpful. Easy access to Edinburgh with a bus stop directly opposite the property and very regular service, single ticket £2.20 and takes 2O mins.

Delicious hearthy breakfast !

The hosts were exceptional - they made our stay at Another Room a memorable experience. The breakfasts were also fabulous with a grand finale of homemade scones! Yum!

Lynne and Robert felt like family. I would absolutely stay here again .

Excellent hosts, brilliant accommodation, perfect location, gorgeous food.

Breakfast fantastic with plenty of choice. Lynne and Rob were exceptionally friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again.

The breakfast was outstanding. Lynne fullfiled all our wishes. She and her husband Rob gave us many good recommandations for our day trips. The view from our room was beautiful.
