They are affordable with nice and modern decor. The Edinburgh Central Youth Hostel was just what we needed for a weekend break, just minutes away from the city center, restaurants and shops. Plenty of parking and this is free on weekends. Staff were very nice and excellent customer service. Would definitely come back. ##### Yan Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gillian Jul 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Just the job Just needed a clean, safe room for the night - met three other ladies, nice chat.
