About Southbank Guesthouse

Southbank Guesthouse occupies 36 Academy Street, within walking distance of Elgin's bus stop, railway station and town centre, and offers fifteen en-suite rooms split between the main house and a renovated historic church annex. Family rooms sleep up to four, while super-kingsize rooms suit couples.

All stays include a cooked Scottish breakfast, and rooms come with tea and coffee facilities, hairdryers and irons available on request. The recently updated bathrooms and bedrooms give the guesthouse a fresh, well-kept feel typical of a family-run business.

Its central position makes it an easy base for exploring Elgin on foot, while its straightforward, good-value rooms and free Wi-Fi suit visitors touring the wider whisky trail, golf courses and castles of Moray without wanting to pay for hotel extras they will not use.

Really handy for the town of Elgin, we walked in to eat dinner. Also close to the beautiful beaches on the morray coast. Room was simply but tastefully decorated. Bed comfy, everything was spotlessly clean and the breakfast was superb. Well done Southbank.

Excellent position on a quiet street, a short walk from the train station and town centre. Hosted by friendly and obliging Malcolm and Isabelle, with Ivanda serving a lovely breakfast. Spotlessly clean accommodation, highly recommended.
