Lovely ground floor room , with great amenities. Fantastic welcome from Allessio on the reception desk, he couldn’t have been more helpful and nothing was too much trouble. My only concern was there was no rubber mat in the shower and I found the floor very slippery.

A bit tired, but refurbishment in progress. A delightful period property. The shower was a later addition to our room and a bit small. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The location is very good, away from the centre but only a few stops on the frequent buses - never waited more than five minutes!

The Salisbury was a beautifully restored old home in a quiet neighborhood of Edinburgh. We loved our room and the high ceilings, which overlooked the garden. Parking was a little tight, but understandable for the area. One of the highlights was meeting the desk clerk Alessio who greeted us warmly and answered all of our questions about the hotel and area. Just far enough outside downtown to be quiet, but close enough to catch a bus or take a 20 minute walk to the Royal Mile. Breakfast was hearty with many options to get the day going. Would highly recommend!
