Oh where to start, when my husband and I arrived at this "guesthouse" I went into the hallway first, and was ignored as the member of staff spoke to my husband asking him to sign the register, he then asked for payment which threw me completely.( normally I would ask to see the room first) My husband was given the...

We stayed here for the Hogmanay over 2 nights. On the positive side it is in a really good location and only took around 10 mins to walk into the centre. Also parking is free on the streets of Edinburgh at weekends and we got a spot directly outside the guest house. We had the room in what looked like... More

Room size was fine however mattress was lumpy, pillows were awful. The place appeared to recently have been hurriedly decorated but to a very poor standard. The floor hadn't been hoovered in a while and there was thick dust on the headboard and bedside table and lamps. A tiny 12" LCD tv was perched on top of a wardrobe which... More

I stayed at Relax guest house a few days ago - at the start of August 2011. I read the reviews, but decided to give it a go since it was relatively cheap and centrally located. When I arrived there was a sign on the door saying 'gone to Tesco' and a mobile number to call, which I did, and... More

I was over for a day to attend a wedding and chose Relax for its proximity to the wedding venue. The room I got was small, but priced below average for a single room in Edinburgh and the service I got was decent though nothing struck me as being particularly special. I would return if I was travelling by myself... More
