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.

Great location, rooms generally clean and tidy. You grt what you pay for. Only.things I dislike about it is there isn't much of a common area other than the main reception. Toilet and showers were clean just tiny.

Huge hostel right next to the train station. They run a lot of people through this place because it is reasonably priced which is the exception in Edinburgh. Location is good. The beds were above average but the hand dryers from the bathroom areas can be heard in the bedrooms an the trains can be heard during the day. They try to keep the bathrooms clean but it is a losing battle given the sheer number of people staying there. The bar that was attached had good food and reasonable drink specials. If you need budget accommodations in Edinburgh this is the place.
