    The room was nice, clean, cosy but a little dated. We appreciated the little breakfast corner in the room, with the kettle, tea and snack. Parkings were in front of the house. The guest house was near supermarkets.

Host review score
This lovely three storey stone built town house has off road parking for 6 cars The guest house is over 200 years old and is easily located. It is popular with those keen on golf, fishing, or seeking castles and malt whisky. Elgin Guest House is close to museums, Johnstons Cashmere Centre and restaurant. This property also has one of the best locations in Elgin. Unfortunately, at the moment we are unable to provide a breakfast option but there are a variety of food establishments close by. For the immediate future it is possible that on occasion we may not be able to meet and greet (We will make every effort to meet you on arrival) but on these occasions a key and wifi information will be made available.
