The Castle Nest - well, what to say. If you're wanting a huge place to stay this is not it, if you're wanting somewhere that is superbly placed in old town Edinburgh, comfortable, clean and characterful then this is the place for you (also a very good place for Potterheads).
The Castle Nest is so close to Edinburgh Castle that you're almost inside the grounds. Think of the photos that people share of curved colourful streets, the Royal Mile etc, you're almost there.
We stayed for our wedding anniversary and John gave me plenty of suggestions for places to eat, there is good information in the accommodation.
John was a fantastic host, great communication from him and had we needed him I don't doubt that he'd have been there or on the end of the phone/email very quickly. Fantastic place to stay and great host
