Sakura Edinburgh Guest House Reviews

A little far from city centre but the place is near to restaurants and parks. The room was not ready at check in time so we were allowed to check out later to compensate for the short wait. The room was quite old and the sink and bath area quite mouldy. However, the staff was friendly and helpful.

Very basic accommodation. Questioned the cleanliness a little bit and there was a strong smell throughout the guesthouse. But it does the job of providing a bed for one or two nights in Edinburgh if you’re looking for affordable accommodation.

The room is good but the staff replied very late to my phone call, there's said the check-in time is 2pm but there was nobody when I arrived at 2pm, I waited outside the door until 2.30pm after someone came.

The staff were friendly and hotel location was fairly good. There are plenty of restaurants and markets nearby. It is about a 15-20 minutes walk to center and many bus stops available.

Very convenient location for the festival. A lovely old house with lots of space. I arrived an hour early and it was no problem. Very kind manager.

If you are looking for a room in Edinburgh with no frills but affordable this hotel ticks the boxes . It’s not much dearer than a dormitory but far more private with a room and shower . It’s also a fifteen minute walk to the centre and ten minutes to holy rood park and palace and opposite a pub and restaurant . It was very peaceful there and ideal for a budget friendly city visit

A little expensive for such a small in a cellar, but clean and tidy though. And very hospitable.

It was a nice stay , cleanliness was good , I stayed for 2 nights and heating was switched off on 2nd night And it was very cold

Owner was really friendly and the facilities were nice and clean. Complementary tea and coffee. About 30 mins walk from the city center so not the perfect location, but close enough that it's not a problem.

Not clean.

Good 👍

The location is about a 10-15 minute walk from Edinburgh, and there is a bus stop nearby so I had no problem getting there. The University of Edinburgh is also nearby so the surrounding atmosphere was not bad and was very nice. The owner was kind and adjusted the check-in time and left my luggage in my room. Also, unlike other guesthouses, they provided water for boiling water, so I was able to stay comfortably. The bathroom is shared, but it was easy to use and I was able to use the wifi without any problems.

The room is in the basement, and there is no bathroom. You need to walk many steps in the corridor to use the toilet and shower. You also need to use a key to open and lock the door, which is very inconvenient. The room has no ventilation and lighting, and is too closed, dark and damp, which is completely different from the name of the hotel, Sakura!

This price is quite affordable in Edinburgh. The room is equipped with a hair dryer, a large bucket of drinking water, and the WiFi signal is also good. Ctrip shows that you can only check in before 8pm, but in fact you can check in before 10:30pm. You just need to call or email the store in advance to let them know.
