Recent review (29/08/2011)

We (party of 4) had exclusive use of 4 bed 'apartment'. Great to have your own room / personal space and access to kitchen etc. Location - perfect for Fringe Festival - everywhere in easy walking distance.

Overview

Great low cost private rooms at fantastic prices. Ideal for visiting the festival and the nearby historic attractions!.

Edinburgh University’s halls of residence on the Cowgate become SYHA Edinburgh Metro again for almost two month this summer. Located only minutes from the famous Royal Mile, historic Grassmarket, the Scottish Parliament and all the Edinburgh Festival action. The buzzing local nightlife is right on the doorstep and this part of town really comes alive during the Festival with many terrific venues just around the corner. All accommodation is in single rooms only. NEW 2010 - Private apartments comprising of 4, 5 or 6 rooms with kitchen and bathroom are now available to book.

* No curfew, 24-hour access
* Free showers (of course)
* Self-catering kitchen
* Bedding included in the price
* Friendly international atmosphere
* No hidden charges, the price you see is what you pay
* Get a great night’s sleep at Metro, as we are close enough to the action but just far enough away to avoid the noise!
* Check in from 5pm
* Luggage room all day
