Averon Guest House - Edinburgh

The room was a nice size with private bathroom, the breakfast was hearty! The hotel had a central position right by the Scottish sights, including the Edinburgh Castle and Scottish landmarks and Haymarket. Also, the place was...  

Variety of options for breakfast, nice tea, toast, cereals, cakes and cheese. Nice building, great location just next door to castle and town centre and Theatre.

private parking & lock up is an excellent facility a good breakfast clean room we stayed in the annex which enables you to go in & out entirely as you please

foreign waiters at breakfast ........ they were very polite & well meaning became a bit like faulty towers (not our quote !) as they didn't fully understand requests / choices made could make more of the rooms - this is a lovely Georgian building

The hotel had a very central location and it was near a traditional theatre.

The service was excellent, totally satisfied.

Low-budget hotel in a very quiet area just off the canal, center and the centre of town. Peaceful location with parking on-site. Caring staff; easy check in. Breakfast for beans or mushrooms.

The location was great and it was very easy to walk into central edinburgh but also catch up with friends locally. Also the staff were helpful and friendly.

The breakfast as we were looking forward to a decent scottish breakfast and it was a bit disappointing. the staff were a bit too eager and were constantly asking if we wanted toast, but weren't aware that someone had asked one minute earlier. As it was a great weekend weather wise and as scotland is not used to heat like that our room was too hot from pipes under the floorboards.

Convenience to location for Taste of Edinburgh

Beds were hard, rooms out dated and breakfast poor for the price

Awesome location and friendly vibes!

Just spent 3 nights here with friends and loved the vibe! The location is super convenient, just a quick walk to the bus stops. Their breakfast was fresh and tasty, and the live music at night was a pleasant surprise. Just wish our room had a bit more light, it was kinda dark. But overall, a charming place!

The guesthouse owner was particularly helpful & friendly - the other staff also very friendly. We were offered coffee and/or breakfast on arrival despite the breakfast time being over. Our room was dark but due to the position...  

I liked that our bedroom was nice and spacious. I liked the way the heating was on when we came home, because it was cold two of the nights. I liked that we stayed in our own part of the guest house, have us lots of privacy....  

Averon Guest House offered a good stay with its cozy vibe and friendly atmosphere. The evenings were particularly enjoyable with Alan's live music. He played traditional Scottish songs. The location was perfect, just a short walk from the...  

The staff were friendly and helpful.

The room wasn't ready when we arrived. Staff did their best in terms of service but didn't seem to have been trained to the accepted level. For instance, at breakfast, we were forgotten about at breakfast and, when the order was finally taken, the cooked food was brought before we had finished our cerials.

Unable to think of anything positive!

300 words would not provide sufficient space to comment on everything that I didn't like.

Despite the simple breakfast, it included traditional regional homemade products. The location was reasonably accessible, just a short walk to the city center. The overall value wasn't equivalent to the higher expectations set by the initial impressions, and the noise levels from outside during the night were somewhat disruptive.
