Traveller reviews

“Superb”
07 Jan 2025
Lucas is a very nice helpful guy, telling me how to get to Arthur's seat. The price is reasonable.

“Good”
01 Jan 2025
The building is beautiful and sophisticated. The bathroom is perfect. There is also a hairdryer.

“A lovely hostel”
28 Dec 2024
Comfortable beds but careful when you roll over/lift your head as you can easily bang your head on the bunk above. Clean and warm and so close to city centre (5 minute walk onto Princes street) a cool little sitting room for relaxing or socialising with other guests and a kitchen. Have stayed here twice now and will be back.

“Lovely helpful staff. They checked me in earlier because the bed was empty. Always warm and always helping. The bar area”
23 Dec 2024
Not too far from the crowded center. A nice little walk away. And well connected via buses and tram. Loved the locality, it was quaint and clean and silent.

“Good value for money and prime location”
02 Dec 2024
Comfortable beds, good mattresses, onsite free water and ease of access

“Great budget-friendly hostel.”
22 Nov 2024
This is the perfect hostel for budget-concious travelers to Edinburgh. Hosts were great and really accommodating.

“Very good”
18 Nov 2024
Second time staying here. We had to leave early in the morning and there is always staff around in case you need anything.

“Nice Entrance, Clean Kitchen. Mainly Nice Guests. Lots of Stairs”
16 Nov 2024
I don’t have a great amount of time at the moment, due to circumstances beyond my control, so can’t give longhand comments, but best aspects were entrance to dwellings, upkeep of small kitchen, and a general sense of space, and SOME lovely guests. To add a bit more, there was a good chance of making friends and effortlessly exchanging details, which could be why it was BELIEVED see later I had been there before, but I hadn’t. I think sometimes people are drawn to you because you may fit into that big sis role or something like that, but generally with a few exceptions, people were very friendly. I also do like the active system of giving that they generate, though I think it makes some of the things I later mention, a little harder to swallow! Because you KNOW what ’nice’ looks like!! The area is nice, but at the time was very difficult to get to, (no more room in negative section as there was a bit of drama) well not so much difficult as LONG! But exercise is good.

“Central place to stay cheaply.”
14 Nov 2024
Very central location, very clean and well run place, even a bar there too.

“Friendly, welcoming & homely.”
12 Nov 2024
Staff were so nice and friendly and helpful. I was so tired when I arrived I just wanted to chill out for the evening and the bar/lounge was the perfect place to do that. The showers where soo powerful and just what I needed to de-stress. I had an evening snack deal of soup toastie and crisps. Simple but delicious. Great chat with staff over a Hot choc before bed too. The staff in the morning where friendly too . Thank you for the hospitality and love 💕
