We stayed at Doris Crook for 3 nights and rented 2 rooms with 4 people. We had a huge delay flying in, so we arrived close to midnight. Yet we were greeted by the owner like we arrived in the middle of a sunny day. We got some information about the 2 rooms and we were asked what we wanted... More

Very good B&B in a pleasant area of Edinburgh. All the main sights of Edinburgh are walkable from Doris Crook's. Good rooms and substantial breakfast. More

The lovely couple that run the b&b really go out of their way to make you feel at home, they are so very sweet and helpful. Breakfast each morning was wonderful and filling. The location was an easy walk to the city center. And they were happy to book our cabs and make any recommendations for places to eat and... More

we visited the Doris Crook b&b for the weekend of march 23-25 and found all that has been previously said to be 100% accurate. The location was perfect, a 20-25 minute stroll to the royal mile which is as straightforward as it could be ( £1.40 for a bus which all run in the direction of the city centre or... More

What a treasure Doris and Eddie are, and what a fantastic place to stay in Edinburgh. Being here was like staying with family, but without all the bad bits :) Doris and Eddie have everything set up so beautifully, and are the perfect hosts – they have got the balance just right in being so wonderfully welcoming and helpful but...

Our room was huge, had a very big comfortable bed, tea and coffee-making facilities, clean ensuite, television, great free wifi and a lovely large window overlooking... More

My partner and I spent two nights in this great B&B. Doris and Eddie were very welcoming and helpful. They had great local knowledge and also produced two great full scottish breakfasts! The hotel is only a 5 minute walk from Arthur's seat (a must!), but is around 15-20 mins from the centre of Edinburgh. We didn't find this too... More

My partner and I recently had the very good fortune of spending two nights in this beautiful B&B, situated in a quiet neighbourhood only a short bus trip from the city centre. Our room was very cosy and comfortable, with everything we could possibly need, and with a delicious and hearty full Scottish breakfast each morning, Doris and Eddie's hospitality... More

Doris and Eddie's fabulous environment and generous hospitality created a wonderful home away from home while we were in Edinburgh. Breakfast was always tasty (wonderful fruit and full Scottish breakfast), and conversations were fun and helpful. Location was superb for our purposes with convenient bus lines and restaurants. All in all a wonderful stay. Anne and Jack More
