Great location with easy access to all the major old town attractions. Only gripe is the stairs-only leading to the rooms so if you're on the higher floors, good exercise. ##### Ming Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicole Sep 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Location was fabulous!

Its your basic continental breakfast. Bread. Boiled eggs, cerial and yogurt. I stayed in a large pod room, the pods were spacious, had fun light options and it was comfortable. The location is perfect . Only thing i had an issue with was the showers . My floor was just a push to start shower with no temperature option and it was burning hot for me . ##### Vedrana Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tristian May 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great place!

Pod gives you just the amount of privacy. Storages are enough to accommodate both personal and carry on luggages. If there's one thing I would suggest is an option to rent or have an AC or Fan in the Pod it's the only uncomfy part of staying there for me but overall everything was perfect. ##### McGerby Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew Oct 19, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely staff very friendly clean ##### Andrew Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Lina Jun 2, 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Staff were very friendly. The water temperature on level 2 showers was beyond inhumane. At least 40+ Celsius. Showered on level 2 were better since you could adjust the temperature. There weren’t lifts so had to take my 20kg luggage to the 3rd floor. Staff were really friendly, toilets were generally clean. The top of bunk beds were disgustingly dirty. Dust accumulated for years probably. Ventilation on the room was poor and inside the cubicle as well making it hard to sleep ##### Lina Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Nadim May 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Here's my honest review: The pros: + The emplacement: How convenient it was it's right in the heart of Edinburg, you can walk to all the cool spots nearby. I highly enjoyed that. + The staff: There were all really cool, grateful to all of them. + The decoration: How cool they've made it for an urban hostel. + The price: Very convenient. + Private bathrooms + showers. + Awesome breakfast: Highly recommend to take the added option, it had a sweet selection and the cost was great too! The cons: No elevator: If you are in the third floor like I was with a luggage, get ready to do some stairs. The above pods: If you have a place in the upper parts, you will have to climb, just to be aware. Moving toilet floor: I had the impression that floor was moving, I think it was because it was the movement of the car from the street below. Thank you for having made my trip a great one! ##### Nadim Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Remmy Nov 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hostel is beautiful and well located. You will be able to see the castle from the window, or take steps in 2 minutes to get there. Rooms and bathrooms are very clean. The two guys at the reception were brilliant and very helpful. They welcomed me well, and I was provided a cup of coffee on my checkout although the breakfast time wasn't ready. Hoping to get back again. ##### Remmy Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Greg Nov 1, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Satisfied I was in a 6 bed dorm, everyone was respectful and quiet, I had a good stay. The staff were quiet helpful whenever I had any questions, the only thing I could say that needs a little tweek, is the breakfast, couple of small adjustments, please, some wholemeal bread and an alternative to cows milk, like soy or oat? ![Looking out of a side window in the early morning](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9F4D77B1317FBCA308E8CE57B9F46F183D13D2561698873576808.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![So much to see and do, just a magical place](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2B15B5237D824B49D988D7B0412CAEEA98E3026D1698873700530.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Greg Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Sheraton Grand Hotel & Spa, Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Hotel-Spa.h15554.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Scots Club Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Royal-Scots-Club-Edinburgh.h900862.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-Edinburgh-Haymarket.h4035314.Hotel-Information) > > [Fingal - A Luxury Floating Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Fingal.h38753319.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points Flex by Sheraton Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Four-Points-Flex-By-Sheraton-Edinburgh.h544658.Hotel-Information) > > [Cairn Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Cairn-Hotel.h64061.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Edinburgh-Marriott-Hotel.h873944.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Edinburgh Central Queen Street](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Edinburgh-Central-Queen-Street.h4924301.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Styles Edinburgh Centre St Andrew Square](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Ibis-Styles-Edinburgh-Centre-St-Andrew-Square.h7841147.Hotel-Information) > > [Ten Hill Place](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Ten-Hill-Place.h1535542.Hotel-Information) > > [Destiny Student Holyrood - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Destiny-Student-Holyrood.h12691403.Hotel-Information) > > [The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Caledonian-Edinburgh.h4198.Hotel-Information) > > [Old Waverley Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Old-Waverley-Hotel.h24919.Hotel-Information) > > [The Balmoral Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Balmoral-Hotel.h9339.Hotel-Information) > > [Moxy Edinburgh Fountainbridge](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Moxy-Edinburgh-Fountainbridge.h64450784.Hotel-Information) > > [Point A Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Point-A-Hotel-Edinburgh-Haymarket.h37166264.Hotel-Information) > > [Summer Stays at The University of Edinburgh - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Pollock-Halls.h1083952.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Edinburgh West](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Edinburgh-West.h19218414.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Edinburgh by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Edinburgh.h3516.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express - Edinburgh City Centre by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Edinburgh-City-Centre.h1088215.Hotel-Information) > > [Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Mount-Royal-Hotel-Edinburgh-By-The-Unlimited-Collection.h802180.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Indigo Edinburgh - Princes Street by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Hotel-Indigo-Edinburgh-Princes-Street.h522038.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Edinburgh The George by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-InterContinental-Edinburgh-The-George.h20436.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Edinburgh Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Edinburgh-Airport.h31618511.Hotel-Information) > > [Eden Locke](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Eden-Locke.h17859332.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh - Leith Waterfront by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Edinburgh-Leith-Waterfront.h519940.Hotel-Information) > > [The Frederick House Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Frederick-House-Hotel.h201136.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Edinburgh.h15710648.Hotel-Information) > > [Kimpton Charlotte Square by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Kimpton-Charlotte-Square-Hotel.h571654.Hotel-Information)
