Royal Mile Backpackers

- great location - very good price - ability to leave luggage even though you have check out

my friend and I were in this hostel for a couple of nights. The position is excellent as it's in the centre, staff was always smiling, welcoming and ready to help. The structure is very welcoming too, colorful walls, friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended for people who love backpacking.

The staff and location.

The property is near the old town which is the location of some of the tourist spots in the city.

The glass of the entrance door going through the lobby should be transparent. When I stayed there last week, I had this experience wherein the staff wasn’t able to notice that I was going inside my room (Hogwarts, which is the first room on the left side) and then she suddenly opened the main door. My left arm got hurt but it was okay. I think it would be better if they changed the glass into transparent one so anyone coming in/out can notice for safety purposes.
