    Amazing place, so cosy and super friendly host! This was the ultimate cosy place to land in hobart and will absolutely always stay there from now on when I return. Really cosy room for our family, we where so comfortable with our toddler he could have a nice big bath at the end of a cold day. It felt like just staying in someones house as the interiors are beautiful and homey and the house itself is really beautiful. There is amazing antiques and art everywhere to be inspired by. Great breakfast and easygoing setup which was really comfortable for us. 10/10! Thanks!

    It was a fantastic comfy room, with a huge ensuite and John the manager was such a lovely host. The kitchen/breakfast room was great and open all hours so I had breakfast each day, but I could also go and make myself a sandwich for a late lunch or breakfast on the go. And the location is really convenient. About 15 minutes walk to Salamanca Market and the waterfront with museums and restaurants.

    John went above and beyond to help us with our very late checkin. It was too late to buy dinner anywhere, so John very kindly let us help ourselves to the breakfast room. The building is a gorgeous historic building full of character and quirkiness. I wished we had more than one night here, and will definitely stay here again when next in Hobart.

    John, our host, was most helpful, as usual. Very genial, and welcoming. We have stayed here a couple of times, and love it. It is close to everything, but still nice and quiet.

    We always try to stay at Edinburgh B&B when we're in Hobart. John is an excellent host, the property is always spotless, rooms and beds are comfortable and there's always a great selection on offer for continental breakfast. Such a great central location, easy parking, and we really appreciated the heater on cold nights.

    We only had 4 days to spare for our trip.

    This accomodation epitomises the laid back feel of Hobart. The host, John makes it feel like home. The breakfast is second to none and caters for all dietary requirements. Our room looked over Mt Wellington and had a comfy bed, a couch and tea facilities in the room. The Wifi was good and daily papers were available to read. This was our third visit and I see no reason to change. The location is a short walk to Salamanca, Battery Point and the CBD, and slightly longer to North Hobart. Buses pass by the front door.

    No downsides, it was fine for our needs and great value for money.

    John was very engaging and friendly. The bed/s and room was very comfortable. You can't stop external (city) noise, but the blinds blocked out the light REALLY well, which I greatly appreciate. The Edinburgh has a really nice inclusive ambience. We could easily access the breakfast. It was simple but sufficient for our needs.

    Nothing!

    Very quaint old building with high ceilings. Rooms were a decent size and very quiet all with ensuite with super hot water, heaters and electric blankets - perfect comfort for those chilly Tasmanian nights. Very conveniently located, walking distance from food (Mr good guy was a favourite- just down the road), the city and lovely parks. Constant supply of tea, coffee and Milo and two minute noodles in the kitchen.
