The International Guest House is an attractive, stone Victorian terrace house which was built in 1842. It has long earned the unofficial title of Edinburgh's premier guest house, with its delicate blend of warm Scottish hospitality, Victorian elegance and modern comfort.
The decor is outstanding, with original ornate plasterwork as fine as in the New Town. The house is the ideal base for those, either touring or on business, who like to stay in surroundings not a little out of the ordinary.
