Customer review

22 June 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: It was less than a 10 minute walk to all of the major Edinburgh attractions. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. I chose to stay in a private room, which was pretty nice - wardrobe, decent bed, and desk. My one complaint about the room was that it was FREEZING. I understand it's kind of ridiculous to have to turn the heat on in June, but still. It really isn't a good place to meet people, but Edinburgh itself is very friendly and open, so you have to depend less on the hostel for that than you would in other cities. The shower sucked (VERY hot and powerful), but the bathrooms in general were very clean. Each "apartment" has about 5 rooms that share 2 toilets, one shower, and a kitchen. I would think of this more as a 'budget hotel' than a hostel - I saw many older people coming and going while I was there. All in all, good value for the money, and my few complaints are nothing that would stop me from staying there again.

Customer review

31 August 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: room was ok, but kitchen was very badly equipt, just some plates, cups, pots and cutlery. No toaster, servings spoons,sieve , chopping board.etcNot easy to cook for yourself. Also longe did not have tv or radio. Not many bathrooms per apartment. There was a fire alarm, but no safety regulations that all the people were checked if they were out of the building. Considering that it was during the Fringe, we were glad to have some where to stay. In a normal situation I would not have accepted the price.

Liked: The room and bathroom facilities are fine but basic, the kitchen facilities are great. However being on a main street with pub nearby mean't very noisy nights with little sleep. Good location, close to Royal Mile and Castle.

Liked: If you are looking for a great location in the summer with a more personal/independent feel, then the Euro Hostel is perfect. Given it being University of Edinburgh flats it is good for a more independent traveler. But at the same time the staff is great and there 24/7.

Kathryn Betts

27 June 2009 Kathryn would recommend this property

Liked: Great location, right by the night clubs and city centre. Recommendation, use blaire street to go from the hostel to the royal mile. it's not as steep as a hill as fishmarket and other streets that lead up to it. It's very close to the center, and be prepared for a very beautiful hilly city!! Bring less!!!
