Lovely place but parking an issue.
Very well presented rooms in a great location. Quiet at night too, which is a bonus. Couple of issues for us, I had booked the superior room with two singles and a double, but room was actually a double with a very small single bed in an ante-room. Although the description says free on-street parking, this isn't accurate and we were advised that parking at John Lewis might be a good option, despite that being a 25 minute walk away. Did find free parking close by, but it is only free after 5.30 and before 8.30, so had to wait to go back to the guesthouse and leave early to avoid getting a ticket.

Highly recommended when visiting Edinburgh. Walking distance into the City Centre and free parking on the road near the guest house. The bedroom / bathroom was modern ,clean and comfortable.

Available in the bedroom are tea making facility along with a small fridge with treats in also a small decanter of whisky . The area is very quiet. Would definite stay again. Thank you x

A lovely family room. Spotlessly clean. Gorgeous shower room with fluffy white towels, lovely toiletries and the complimentary Whisky, Tunnocks and oat bars were thoughtful and well received. This guest house is ideally positioned to explore Edinburgh and we loved it!

Beautiful, friendly and unique guest house.
It was our 1st visit to Edinburgh and the hotel was absolutely amazing. It made our stay even more perfect. The decor is to a very high standard with lovely touches. Food was wonderful and the owner (Margaret) was so helpful, kind and very warm. Will be revisiting again!!!

Excellent guest house.
A fantastic guest house: beautifully styled and decorated with a mixture of modern and traditional tastefully put together. Everything was spotlessly clean and everything we needed was provided. The breakfast was wonderful too. Margaret was friendly, welcoming and offered lots of helpful information, ranging from where to eat locally in the evening [we went twice to 'La Favorita' - a local Italian restaurant], to how best to get into the city center. I rarely write reviews, but this one is definitely worth the effort; we would have no hesitation in recommending it.

4 Days in Edinburg
We stayed there in July and had a wonderful time. The rooms were well appointed and in an older house that was recently rehabbed. Margret was a wonderful host and served the traditional English Breakfast with some additions- yogurt, fruit, pastries. The B&B was near the bus line and close to town. There was parking on the street, We would definitely stay there again. And, we would definitely visit Edinburgh again,

Comfortable accommodations with at home atmosphere
Clean comfortable accommodations a little over a mile from the main city attractions. Street parking is available on the very busy street in front of the B&B. The proprietor is extremely welcoming, friendly and helpful and breakfasts are adequate to fortify you for your busy day ahead. We will definitely stay again.

Superb old guest house with huge rooms....
Margaret was the most accommodating hostess and her home was stunningly beautiful and clean. Newly decorated bedrooms and on suite but just everything was perfect even allowing us to leave our bags as we arrived and left outside of normal operating times. If you want to visit Edinburgh go here.

Excellent B&B
The Antler Guest House is an excellent place to spend a night in Edinburgh. The room was beautiful and most importantly, very clean. The service was great as well. Location is good; close to shops, restaurants and public transportation. Finding street parking close by wasn't an issue either. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a great place to stay.

Confortável com localização excelente
Localização excelente (com ponto de onibus em frente para ir e voltar de old city), limpeza, staff atencioso, quarto espaçoso e bastante confortável. Como pontos de melhoria posso citar o box que é um pouco apertado e falta um frigobar. Falta acessibilidade para pessoas que tenham alguma dificuldade de locomoção pois o acesso aos quartos é por escada, o que para mim nao foi um problema, mas pode ser uma limitação para alguém. Infelizmente passei por uma situação desconfortável, meu namorado colocou um casaco em cima de um móvel, porém durante a arrumação do quarto acredito que o mesmo foi guardado dentro do armário. Quando fomos embora, nao revistamos o armário, pois nao havíamos colocado nada lá. Resultado, só percebemos a falta dele quando chegamos no nosso próximo destino, enviei um email solicitando o envio para onde estávamos, o que nao ocorreu, depois ficaram de enviar para o Brasil, e até agora nada. Já enviei email novamente questionando, pedindo o código de rastreio, mas nao tive resposta. Vai completar 1 mês que estou no aguardo.

Clean and recently renovated room in an old but perfectly maintained and lovely house, fine location, easy to get there by foot from Edinburgh Waverley railway station. The bus to Newhaven (no. 11) stops right in front of the property too. Had a very good time in Edinburgh, thanks!

perfekte Lage, nicht weiter vom Stadtzentrum, Busstation vor der Haustür. Unser Host hat uns mit guten Infos versorgt, das Zimmer war sehr schön und sauber. Einzige kleine Einschränkung war, dass wir nur die Übernachtungen buchen konnten, ohne Frühstück. Das es in der Umgebung aber genug Gelegenheit dafür gab, kein wirkliches Problem :-) Wir können das Antler's bestens weiter empfehlen und würden es auch wieder buchen

Davvero una bella guest House, accogliente e ben posizionata tutto sommato. La camera era pulitissima, curata e accogliente, lo stesso per il bagno. Nulla da dire di negativo, siamo stati solo un giorno ed una notte ma ne è valsa la pena e sono sicuro che tornerei lì se dovessi visitare nuovamente Edimburgo.

Sehr liebenswerte ältere Dame, Hotel sauber, Zimmer schön, essen gut und man kann zu Fuß oder mit dem Bus, welche quasi vor der Tür hält (dennoch angenehm ruhig) in die Stadt. Edinburgh ist absolut sehenswert.
