    Beautifully kept hotel located right by the most beautiful beach and sea front with restaurants and bars as well as a nice pub. Well-equipped and beautifully designed rooms with private bathrooms and an electric kettle and glassware. The elegant feel of the place and central location. And right at a contemporary art gallery.

    Charming Stay with Perfect Hosts!

    Celebrating our tenth anniversary was a delight here. Angela and her husband treated us like family. We relished the warm atmosphere and good festive decor. The serene location allowed us easy access to Edinburgh's Christmas markets via bus. Pro tip, enjoy breakfast early for a better selection!

    delicious breakfast

    easy access to beach and bus routes for city explorations

    I had an amazing time with the hosts cute me warmly and providing a really good breakfast while being just a short walk away from the beautiful Portobello Beach, and the bus stop only a few steps away took me right into the city center in no time for exploring all the landmarks.

    The room was airy and included an electric kettle and glassware. I appreciated the view of garden. The location was magnificent, for example, Portobello Beach was a 10-15 minute walk from the hotel. It was reasonably clean, I would come here again.

    I had a delightful stay! The decor was stunning, a step into a magazine, and the breakfast was fresh and delicious. The cozy touch with bathroom amenities was much appreciated.

    Everything. Angela and her husband were amazing. Nothing was too much trouble, she went out of her way to introduce us to the guest house and give us direction/hints/tips for our wander in to the city. The room was warm, comfortable, clean and cosy. Loved our stay to be fair!

    The weather could have been better!!

    Abercorn is a wonderful b&b, clean, comfortable and with easy access to the city (the 26 bus takes 20mins runs every 8 mins & stops outside the door). The breakfasts are worth visiting scotland for & the owner, Angie & her husband are extremely friendly & helpful.

    It's one of the best hotels we've ever stayed. Everything was perfect! Angela and her family are really beautiful people. You just feel yourself like you are at house of your close friends. Edinburg is a great city and this hotel made our stay in Scotland unforgettable.
