Glad I stayed here! The couple that runs this place are extremely nice and attentive. The neighborhood is quiet and feels safe. The place is closely located to the St James shopping mall and there are plenty of pubs and restaurants in the area. Only thing is that, it is a bit of a walk to the Royal mile from the property.

We enjoyed our stay at the property because of the smooth transaction from check-in to checkout. The room was clean and we were provided with toiletries, biscuits, tea, coffee and milk. They also provided us with a hairdryer, electric kettle and microwave which was very convenient. Our room was very spacious and even though it was near the road, it wasn't noisy at all. The location of the property was very favourable because it's close to the bus stop and there's a grocery shop nearby.

Ajaz was absolutely lovely! The service from start to finish was incredibly warm and I felt very welcomed in Edinburgh. The room itself is very charming, spacious, and clean. Despite being just a short walk from the old town city center, my room was still very quiet at night :) overall, I had a great experience!

We had a great time staying at The Atlas Guesthouse. One drawback is lack of parking- but we paid to park behind the hotel, which was fine. You need to book to park.behind the premises. The accommodation was lovely. The website did mention Room Service- but it has changed ownership and is no longer an option. However, the Proprietor was very helpful. The addition of a toaster might help for a quick breakfast. Having said that, we found a cafe close by which served a breakfast.

It’s very worthy hotel. Staff is friendly and helpful. The room is quiet big for this price and very clean. Location is good , just 10mins walk to city center. But the bathroom model kinda small. And the mirror just above the toilet, I dropped two items into the toilet. Really recommend move the mirror.

There is nothing unique about the Caravel the place is below average and the decor is dated it is an old property even though the proprietor did provide clean towels and coffee and tea in room it is rather disappointing .According to the website a buffet breakfast was to be provided but on arrival we were told this was not the case. Instead we were told that the cafe on the corner would give us a discount on breakfast once we advised the we were staying at The Caravel I don't believe this is acceptable i would expect some form of compensation in the light of the situation and ask that corrections be made to the details of the property.

Bon séjour au sein de ce guest house. Très arrangeant lors de check in tard. Il est très bien situé, environs à 15 minutes à pieds du centre et de la gare de waverly. Les bus passent à côté et le tram est à 5 minutes. Il y a également tous les commerces de premières nécessité à côté. Le style est traditionnel (moquette etc), ce qui donne un charme non négligeable ! Attention il n'y a pas de petit déjeuné mais vous trouverez dans votre chambre thé et café avec une bouilloire. Les toilettes et la douche sont dans le couloir, pour ceux que ça pourrait déranger, ce qui ne fut pas mon cas.

Room 12 Very large room in good location. Very comfortable clean beds and clean toilet just tightly squeezed in the corner.. Room was a bit dusty but being next to main road doesnt help when you open windows door lock is really bad piece of plastic holding the deadbolt. Luckily we only left clothes in our room. Sofa was disgustingly dirty with crumbs we put blankets over it to sit. Luckily it was just a place to sleep for us as we were there to sight see. Our room slept 5 people but we were 3. I assume it is used for stag night and festival goers more than families. I did say the beds were comfortable and clean and there was fresh towels daily but other than that if you rang the bell no service came. Other rooms looked nicer.
