This hostel is very well located right next to the Central Railway station. Rather small rooms and a little cramped for 4 people but very clean and comfortable. The mattress needs to be turned periodically as it tends to slope to one side. Very helpful and friendly staff. Inclusion of a simple breakfast in the bar below is convenient. Overall,... More

I stayed there for three nights in a 10 bed mixed dorm. Even the hostel is not as nice as the St Christopher in Amsterdam, it has the basics. The location is perfect, just in front of the station and 2min by walking of the Royal Mille. Just great. And the staff is really nice, especially a Colombian woman called... More

I stayed in a 4 bed, mixed dorm with ensuite. Great value for money. Fairly basic set up. No Wifi in room (only in bar and chill out room, but thats ok). Social hostel - great for meeting people. Discount on bar food for people staying there. Excellent location (50m walk from Airlink bus stop/Waverley Station). 5 min walk to... More

I would first like to say that the location of this hostel is excellent. You're literally right next door to the airport shuttle, and right down town. Other than that, it was ok. I've stayed in other St Christopher's Inns and they were always so much fun...People would talk to each other, hang out, you'd meet people, party, etc. This... More

I stayed here for 1 night as part of a stag night out. I've stayed in several youth hostels in the UK and abroad and sadly this one was a bit of a let down. Our 12 person dorm had it's own bathroom, however the shower was very intermittent and so a decent shower couldn't be had. The toilet was... More

This hostel was pretty average all round. I booked a 6 bed mixed ensuite room which was quite roomy. The bathroom was pitiful and the shower was frustrating. It was difficult to be quiet as the floors were creaky and made a lot of noise. Some beds had lights next to them however most of them did not work. I... More

We stayed over the Easter Weekend so it was pretty expensive for 4 nights but we expected it to be a nice friendly hostel as it was a chain and have heard good things from friends. It was not. Facilities Breakfast -some burnt toast or rice bubbles are pretty much your only options whilst they blast rock music (couldn't even... More

Had a great stay at the hostel, perfect for a bunch of us to crash after a hectic stag day, rooms were basic but clean. Central location was greta for getting out in the evening and even better when stumbling home! Nice people and they had a sense of humour as well.

I had previously stayed at this hostel a few years ago when I first visited Edinburgh, and chose to stay here again due to it's excellent location. You could not be any more central in the city !!!

The staff made our stay awesome! They were very friendly and welcoming. Such great people! We even ended up all going out to the local pubs one night which was really cool. The place is very nice, with great food and cute room. I really enjoyed my stay here. :)
