SYHA Hostelling Scotland hotels in Edinburgh and Lothian, Scotland

"Hotel was in a great location. Walkable to Royal Mile, food and souvenir shops. The staff is very nice and helpful. Only negative is the place can get sketchy with people asking for money. Also the hotel rooms need to be updated. Clean and everything works well, but you can see the old stains on curtains and dust in vents. Would still come back again."

"We had a great stay. The property is quite a walk out of Edinburgh centre but we enjoyed the walk and Ubers didn’t cost much to get you there. "

"Fantastic stay. The balcony overlooking the castle was spectacular. Awesome staff. "

"A great location in the heart of Edinburgh"

"Excellent hotel with a comfortable room. Location very convenient, just a few blocks from everything. Just one feedback for improvement, the room had a very annoying energy saving timer that would turn off the lights every few minutes or so, but other than that we had a great experience."

"Very well situated for travel, easy access to the city. Amenities were great. "

"Clean room. Helpful staff. Centrally located."

"The hotel is ideally situated between the airport and city centre. It’s about 15 minutes by car into the centre of Edinburgh, however there is a bus stop directly outside the hotel on the main road which takes you directly through to Edinburgh Waverley station. We wanted to visit the zoo so it was a perfect choice for us. Check in was quick and easy, the front desk is friendly and very helpful. Our rooms were clean, quiet and amply stocked with tea and coffee. Towels were abundant and housekeeping did a light clean of the room everyday. We had a decent sleep, the hotel itself is fairly quiet however our rooms overlooked a car park and occasionally we would be disturbed by the sounds of work vans in the morning- we had the windows cracked open so you can always close them and turn on the a/c if needed. Breakfast was standard with hot and cold options available. The hotel also offers a selection of Starbucks coffees to purchase and these are available all day. Overall our stay was very pleasant and I would recommend to anyone considering this as a place to stay. "

"David at the desk was exceptional. He went above and beyond when a cab didn’t turn up on time….thank you thank you"
