Very friendly and clean B&B
Glenalmond was perfect for our stay. It was only a 30min walk into the center of Edinburgh and the staff (especially Jimmy) were excellent.

I’ve stayed at Glenalmond twice and found a great welcome on both occasions. The rooms are very spacious, comfortable and well equipped and the breakfasts perfectly cooked. The location is a half hour walk to the centre but Newington up the road has plenty of restaurants and shops. My first choice now for a visit to Edinburgh

Lovely B and B with helpful, friendly hosts. Great free parking and good breakfast. Slightly further walk than we thought to the centre of Edinburgh but lots of buses go in that direction.
