guest house - exterior
Just minutes from the heart of Edinburgh's Old Town, and close to all of the city's major cultural attractions, the Ivy Guest House is a quiet family-run guest house. The Edinburgh International Festival's venues are all within easy reach, as are many museums and a diverse range of shops, from the big high-street names on Princes Street to the funky boutiques of the West End.
The green cloak of creeping ivy covering the façade of this Edinburgh Victorian town house, as well as the beautiful front garden, give the Ivy House Guest House a charming appearance. On entering the property, this positive impression will last, thanks to the warm welcome which guests are sure to receive. Guests can sit and relax on the lobby's sofa while they leaf through the many information pamphlets and plan their sightseeing tour of Scotland's capital city.
Free wireless Internet access is available on the first and second floors of the Ivy Guest House, and there is also a pay phone for guest's convenience and a fax service.

USA, Mar 2008
The Ivy House was the nicest place we stayed on our Scotland tour. The price was lower and the room bigger than hotels we stayed at. The owners of Ivy House were very sweet and accommodating. Great location. We purchased all-day bus passes and were able to buzz around town with ease and looked forward to our cozy and quiet room at the end of the day.
