About Albyn Townhouse

Edinburgh's West End is a quiet, handsome corner of the city, close to Murrayfield Stadium and the Royal Botanic Garden yet within easy walking distance of shops, cafes and restaurants. Albyn Townhouse occupies a spot on Hartington Gardens here, offering ten rooms behind its townhouse façade.

Rooms are individually decorated and come with en-suite bathrooms, comfortable beds and a window seat in many cases, along with fast WiFi throughout. Some look out over the surrounding city, giving guests a bit more to enjoy than the usual four walls. A cooked breakfast is included, and the garden provides a spot to sit outside when the weather allows. Luggage storage and concierge services are on hand for those wanting help planning their stay.

The wider area suits most interests, with golf courses, cycling and walking routes nearby, plus pubs, bars and restaurants within easy reach for evenings out. It's a well-placed base for exploring Edinburgh at a gentler pace, away from the busiest tourist thoroughfares but never far from them.

Esra Cengiz

The room was spotless and very spacious. The house wasn't like an ordinary hotel; it was a place with a real soul. Lydie was very friendly and helpful. Even though we arrived early, she helped us and told us about Edinburgh. The hotel's location was quiet but still easy to reach the center. If I were to go again, I would choose it without hesitation. Thank you for everything.

Stayed here for my birthday weekend and I cannot recommend it enough. Lydie is beyond lovely and so extremely helpful, location has some wonderful cafes and things about and only about 20 mins easy stroll into the city centre. Rooms are beautifully decorated, very clean and comfortable. Absolutely loved staying here.

We had a charmed stay with the charming hostess. The Townhouse itself is just adorable and the rooms are great. You can walk here easily to all main attractions or just use the bus if you are so inclined. I will definitely come back if I am ever in the area again.

I stayed in this lovely home for two nights, and it was everything I needed. I was traveling by car, so I needed a place to park, and Albyn offers parking at a more than fair price. The house is about a 20-minute walk from the Old Town—an enjoyable walk that eventually runs alongside the Meadows, which I highly recommend getting lost in on your way to the center. The property is charming, clean, and tastefully decorated; the room was comfortable and spacious. Lydie, the host, is a wonderful person to chat with—kind, helpful, and she makes the experience even more enjoyable. Thank you for everything, we’ll definitely be back. Ciao!
