10/10 Exceptional

The Pillars was located in a nice area with pubs and restraunts. It is close to the tram and neighborhood shops. The staff were great... they provided us with infomation on local activities, and quickly responded to any questions we had. Cosy room and a nice, fully-kitted kitchen to use Would definitely stay there again

Great play to stay
Really friendly and helpful, lots of advice about local places, and transport. It felt very safe. Good help yourself breakfast items, and nice selection in the room. Located very near the tram stop to the centre and the airport which was useful

Little gem
A little gem of a find. About 200 yards from the tram stop. Last minute booking due to train delays when we had to change our plans. The check in was great. Fridge in the room had been stocked with iron bru, water, milk, and breakfadt cakes. Lovely staff. Would certainly use this venue again.

Mandy, 1-night trip

Does what it says on the tin. Good simple value accomodation. Really well equipped kitchen if looking to feed yourself or family, but yet close enough to cafes and such if not. Thanks

great location, reasonable price. Craig was great host
Deborah, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Not for everyone
I was using the property as a base for a two night stay. If you love your creature comforts this is not the place for you. However if you just want a bed at a very reasonable price in an historical building in a capital city this could be the place. Located close to the Port of Leith with a tram stop 200m from the property which gets you into the city centre in less than 20mins it is a great base to explore from.
Julian, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good
