Just lovely!! 
Janette and Graham welcomed us without fuss, provided us with an immaculate room, gorgeous breakfast and appropriate banter ...not too pushy when it's early morning and nitcatvyour best but super friendly and helpful.

Definitely will stay again when visiting Edinburgh 

Just lovely...definitely will stay again  

Rated 5 out 5 for this type of property- great hosts, very friendly and attentive, a good breakfast which included fresh coffee, toast and cooked/ cereal etc. 
Our double room was clean and comfy, a very modern en suite and again everything you needed. We liked the location and would definitely  stay again . Rooms aren’t modern so if that’s important (for the insta) this isn’t for you, but nice hosts, good location and clean rooms- it’s perfect

Lovely find

We traveled to Edinburgh for my son's birthday. We stayed in this guest house for two nights. Our hosts Janette and Graham were very welcoming and friendly, our room was very clean and well equipped.  Breakfast on both mornings was very good with multiple choices. The guesthouse is well within easy  walking distance to most major attractions in the center of Edinburgh. This was my first visit to the city and Scotland. Edinburgh has a wealth of beautiful buildings and culture. I have always been touched by the story of Greyfriars Bobby and had to visit the Kirkyard where there is a statue to the faithful dog. We also visited Edinburgh castle and the Royal Mile but with so much more to see we will definitely have to visit the city again.

Weekend in  Edinburgh

Whilst the outside of the buiding is nothing special, the inside is very nice. The B&B is only 10-15 minutes' walk from the Castle and other town centre attractions. We had a very comfortable quiet room on the ground floor with a very modern en-suite. The full breakfast was excellent. There is limited car parking on site. Janette couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. Highly recommended !

Couldn't be faulted

Stayed for two nights at the end of August with my boyfriend. Janette, the owner of the b&b is absolutely lovely and now we’ve moved on to other parts of Scotland, and less friendly hotel owners, I actually quite miss her! 
Rooms are very clean, and the room we had (red room at the top of the house) has a really comfortable bed in it, I slept like a dream. A good Breakfast is included, Janette makes a mean poached egg. 

Best comfy bed

I stayed here for two nights with my boyfriend, sister and her partner. On arrival we were greeted by a polite man who helped us with everything and answered all questions. Later we met his wife who was just as amazing. They were very accommodating and always catered to our needs (even if we were the fussy ones) would definitely recommend this to anyone. Rooms and bathrooms were so clean and tidy. Thank you for all your help!! Will be back

Amazing from the start

We have now stayed at Adam Drysdale House on several occasions. Hospitality is second to none and Janette and Graham offer a warm and sincere welcome. Travellers arrive here from all over the world giving an international 'flavour' to the breakfast area in the morning. Breakfast itself offers a varied selection of cooked breakfasts, although none can match the tasty Scottish Breakfast which sets the intrepid traveller off on a sound foundation for the day.. The tasty cooked offerings are complemented by a buffet serving fruit, cereals, jams and juices. 
Rooms are cleaned daily and all visitors are made to feel very welcome. 
There is also excellent access to the city itself, either by one of the two buses that passes the guest house every five minutes during the day (less frequently in the evening) or on foot, the Castle or West end of Princes Street being a brisk fifteen minute stroll away. All the University faculties are also easily accessible.
Although Edinburgh has a host of excellent restaurants, sufficient to meet even the most discerning pallets, nearby Leven Street or the canal basin (behind the guest house) also offer a varied choice for diners.
Adam Drysdale House remains our principle Residence when staying in Edinburgh. 

Great Location and hospitable hosts

I feel compelled to write a review about this lovely B &B. Janette really set out to make sure we had everything we needed in order to have a great time. Her cooked breakfasts were great and really set us up for the day. It was lovely to sit with other guests at breakfast and chat. We cannot recommend this place highly enough and definitely want to return next year.

perferct destination for Fringe Festival

We found this place about a week before we arrived and luckily scored the family room for our three travelers. Janette was wonderful. Breakfast was quite nice with a basic fruit and cereal offering as well as cooked breakfast. Janette helped us with parking even though her two official spots were taken y other guests.  She took time to get us settled with the parking as well as finding a laundry nearby where we dropped off some clothes for a cheap price.  The hotel is within walking of the Castle and museums...about 20-25 minutes.  There is also a number 27 bus that drops off right at the National Museum after picking up outside the hotel...just down the block. It was one pound 70 for the one way bus ticket. The room was comfortable with a huge ensuite.  Just cannot day enough about our stay. A fair price as well, relative to other options.  We highly recommend the Tuk Tuk Indian street food place down the street.  We went twice. 

A real gem

We stayed here for 2 nights, in Room 4. An absolutely beautiful bathroom! Bedroom very comfortable although bed seemed to dip in the middle slightly but that added to the charm of the room. Graham and Jeanette were very friendly and welcoming and breakfast was lovely. Cereal and fruit available and a full cooked to order breakfast. We had our first experience of Haggis with our Scottish brekkie! Plenty of tea and toast too. Had a great couple of days in Edinburgh despite the wet weather!!
