Located on the quiet Pilrig Street at the top end of colourful Leith, this B&B is a comfortable choice away from the bustling city centre.

Charming guest house in an old manse |
94 Pilrig Street Edinburgh EH6 5AY United Kingdom +44 131 554 3377 |
Taking its name from a wee village up in the north of the country, this stately Georgian guest house, built originally in 1857 as a church manse, gives visitors a subtle and refined taste of Scotland. It is found on the fringes of the city centre - across the road from the vast Pilrig Park, which lends it an atmosphere of calm and peace. The large rooms are finely decorated with antiques and traditionally flowered fabrics offset by expansive windows, which make the rooms airy and comfortable. There are attractive views of the house's gardens, as well as the intense greens of the park opposite. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Cheap and funky |
48-50 Constitution Street Leith Edinburgh EH6 6RS United Kingdom +44 131 467 7527 |
Popular since it first opened in the mid 1990s, this young and vibrant bar offers a particularly good range of beers. There is also a pleasant garden for the days when you want a little fresh air with your alcohol and the bar sometimes hosts live music nights from mainly local bands. It is small and bustling and has a great atmosphere, situated as it is near the attractive dockland area. Bar Java is a great place to be (or stay - Bed and Breakfast is available) especially during the Edinburgh International Festival and Hogmanay, when there's always an interesting crowd.

Victorian town house |
22 East Claremont Street Edinburgh EH7 4JP United Kingdom +44 131 669 3484 http://www.Brodiesguesthouse.c... |
Based on a quiet street with plenty of parking, this is a Victorian home in the classy New Town Broughton area. The large, bright rooms are stylishly decorated in subtle tones offset by quality pieces of antique furniture. Rear rooms look out on to the lovely back garden which is open to guests - great for grabbing a breath of fresh air. The breakfast room, where they serve up full Scottish breakfasts, is decorated in a charming, yet not kitsch, "country kitchen" style. Simple wooden tables and matching chairs with minimal wall hangings make for a very agreeable space to talk and dine. Review © 2007, Wcities |
