Room is tidy and cool. But there is no curtains for each bed just like the pictures showing. A little bit noisy, we can hear others talking outside the door easily. But the bar of the hostel is perfect. Karaoke was very interesting, fantastic atmosphere.

Amazing price for a central hostel. Easy friendly check in. Staying in girls dorm bunks which had curtains. Unfortunately they didn't reach to the end so not as private as expected. No lockers in our room only cages under the bed and you had to pay for a padlock so didn't bother. Nothing got stolen. Everyone very friendly. Rooms basic but comfy and roomy. Showers and loos like indoor portaloos. Breakfast nextdoor was ok. Tasty and just enough. Thank you for a great stay.

It’s so convenient and clean to stay in this property in Edinburgh. I have know that St Christopher is a chain in Europe but this is the first time I tried their hostels and it’s so good. Lots of toilets/shower rooms and right next to Waverly bridge. They even offered free bagge storage to us

Greate location in heart of centre near Train station and not far from Castle, easy to find reception almost opposite of Dungeon. Friendly staff. Clean and quiet rooms because in separate building from bar. Beds no creaking or wobbling with good privacy. Toilets/showers enough. Nice bar/lounge with wide choice of drinks and meal, not overcrowded. Lot of info. Cheap for expensive Britain.
