Edinburgh hotellit lähellä National Library Of Scotland

Plussat: Location is AMAZING with views of Edinburgh castle. The staff is very friendly and always organising events for the people staying (great Canada Day outing while we were there!), and the facilities are kept really clean for how many people there are. Each bed comes with an associated locker that everything can be kept in so there's peace of mind. Easy to store luggage before check-in or after check-out as well. The overall vibe is quirky and completely amazing for the Edinburgh setting.

Miinukset: Towels have to be rented - slight inconvenience for those travelling without (as I was). However, when considering the great price of a bed per night, not that big of a deal. Be prepared to leave £10 each or ID at reception as a deposit for the room keys (given back at the end of stay provided keys are returned).

Plussat: Location is in the city center, near the castle - I could see it from room's window. Also there was good helpful staff. And the price as for the hostel as for breakfast was cheap :)

Plussat: This hostel clearly deserves a very high rating!!! The location is right next to the castle which is already perfect. The staff is very friendly and helpful. It is very safe and you have your orange card to get in. Key to lockers are provided and there are bedside outlets, as well with USB! The lockers are not too big though so they won't fit a suitcase but valuables and a bag pack. Even though it is a very big hostel, bathrooms and showers were never too busy and always clean, big S/O for that! The rooms, in contrast to most other hostel, were also VERY big which I really enjoyed. The breakfast for 1.50 is also worth it and it has great common areas and an incredibly well-equipped kitchen. Vibe was good and the daily activities are something to recommend. Probably the place to stay in Edinburgh!

Plussat: Big rooms, personal locker in the room, many enormous and comfortable common species. In the center of Edinburgh with very kind and helpful staff!

Plussat: A fun hostel just off the golden mile. Basic serviceable facilities. The location makes it great. There are events and the hostel has a good vibe.

Miinukset: It was as expected. Nothing too bad.

Plussat: It is at the heart of Old Town, with view at Edinburgh Castle. Super clean with friendly staff willing to help and advise on things to do. The atmosphere is very cool medieval themed, with nice common areas. 10/10 to this hostal.

Miinukset: No complaints

Plussat: the bed was the comfiest hostel bed i've been in so far, facilities are great and clean, awesome pub crawl and dancing nights, nice staff, and really awesome huge place. Oh and it's fantastic that they have a laundry service!

Miinukset: not really any diwnsides

Plussat: It was great all around. Well structured, hospitable, and affordable

Plussat: great location.

Miinukset: no hair dryer

Plussat: Great location, helpful staff. Great structure and facilities. Clean bathrooms, spacious rooms and fair price extra services. Everything at Castle Rock Hostel lived up to my expectations

Plussat: My second time at this hostel and it was absolutely incredible! Love this place, I'll come back! I like the style, beerpong, staff, facilities, cleanness and activities they offer.

Miinukset: -

Plussat: The location is really good, and the facilities and staff are good as well. I think the best thing was the breakfast.

Miinukset: It was not too clean, and I did not like the atmosphere. Also, the beds were not comfortable. If I go to Edinburgh again, I’ll prefer to stay in other place.

Plussat: The room was very well-appointed with great finishes and amenities.

Miinukset: Location wasn't as close to everything as we'd have liked, but it was walkable.

Plussat: Aamiainen oli hyvä, suomalaisena kaipasin enemmän käsittelemättömiä vihanneksia.

Miinukset: katso edellinen vastaus

Plussat: Great location, helpful staff, super rooms

Plussat: The location and the charming and helpful staff

Plussat: The shower could fit about 10 people in it! The bedroom had aircon. which was great with the warm weather we're having. Nice and clean!

Miinukset: It took us a while to figure out how to turn the back light off from around the T.V. - We didn't find the switch until the morning, so had all the lights off with the door control. Doh!

Plussat: Breakfast was fine. Location almost put me off choosing that particular hotel but the interior was very pleasing.

Miinukset: A smile goes a long way to make people feel welcomed.

Plussat: Centrally located, clean, great breakfast, in surgeons area

Miinukset: A little hard to find on foot, at first

Plussat: Very clean, excellent service, friendly and professional, very good breakfast. Comfortable furniture. Spacious modern bathroom.

Miinukset: The room was not very spacious, the view was not awesome. The hotel is situated near North Bridge, quite a busy and not so attractive street to reach the Royal Mile.

Plussat: Hotel was in an excellent location in a quiet area of Edinburgh, but within walking distance of main attractions and shops.. Beautiful bedroom and bathroom. Staff couldn't have been more helpful. Fully recommend.

Miinukset: Breakfast was very expensive, so we ate at a local cafe.

Plussat: The staff were exemplary. The food was not overpriced it was good value for money and of an excellent standard.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Location was ideal for sightseeing

Plussat: Everything, the team here cannot do enough for guests and the location is great.

Miinukset: I love staying here, there is nothing to dislike, except one of the lifts is still out of action and I have yet to find the stairs, found the fire escape.

Plussat: Front desk staff and concierge were very helpful and accommodating.

Plussat: Erinomainen aamiainen

Miinukset: Aamiaishenkilökunta ei hymyillyt kertaakaan.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Price and could not check in until late

Plussat: Great location and an excellent facility with wonderful amenities.

Miinukset: A larger seating area in the lobby area or j back. But really no complaints.

Plussat: The location was superb, right on the Royal Mile. The car park,(attached to the hotel), was full upon arrival, however I was allowed to park in a reserved spot, and move my car later when a space became available.

Miinukset: The breakfast got cold very quickly, possibly due to the air conditioning in the breakfast room.

Plussat: Very nice and simply excellent. Perfect location and very helpful and smiling personnel.

Plussat: The water pressure in the shower was amazing. The bed was super comfy

Miinukset: Nil

Plussat: Spacious suite living room, separate half guest bath, Decent breakfast with separate order menu, gym had free weights to 30kg, location is on royal mile down road from castle (but for Christmas markets and shopping, a princess street hotel would been better), overall friendly staff.

Miinukset: 1. For a royal mile suite, main bathroom was standard. Overly spacious living room really could’ve spared space for a more comfortable bathroom befitting suite. 2. Website advertised kids eat free. However, when we ordered meals for the kids via room service, we were told it’s not free. Extremely deceptive and off putting of brand. 3. I emailed the hotel 1 week in advance of 4-day stay and asked for milk, orange juice, and water in room stocked and included room mini fridge. Email from customer service acknowledged request and even confirmed we still wanted wine and beer - a nice catch! However, when we arrived, we were informed juice and milk not included. False service promise should’ve not been made. Room service food was Not worth price (pizza, burger, and kids chicken meal were only ok but far more expensive than eaterery options all around).

Plussat: The breakfast not great ,potato scones were always dry and hard the eggs over cooked fried or scrambled. poorly grilled tomatoes and mushrooms boiled. cant speak regarding meat products as I do not eat meat. I understand its buffet and volume cooking but more attention to freshness by less quantity being prepared and refreshed more regular would eliminate some problems. Would have preferred pancakes pre made, the machine was very slow when working and did not produce great quality pancakes. Service was quick and good staff were very pleasant and efficient.

Miinukset: The breakfast could be better.

Plussat: Situation of the hotel is really excellent - rooms were great and very clean.

Miinukset: Receptionist slight touch of snobby - entrance from parking looks a bit shaby.

Plussat: So central for the fringe -even shows in the hotel. Very comfortable. Helpful staff.

Miinukset: The bar closed early

Plussat: Very large room, nice quiet location at rear of hotel. Breakfast was of a high standard, service excellent, second day even packed me a breakfast pack to take on my tour. Location was very good, close to everything, walking distance to station, right on the Royal mile.

Miinukset: Nothing, everything was catered to a very high standard.

Plussat: The best location in the old town of Edinburgh. So close to everything including food and the tourist locations and the restaurant had great food! We had an awesome view of the Edinburgh castle and of the shops in Grassmarket.

Plussat: Great location, very helpful and nice team at the front desk. Small and cool bar with good selection of drinks ... we never ate in the hotel purely because we were out and about !

Miinukset: All good about the hotel, a little expensive for nightly rate ... due to location.

Plussat: Great position

Miinukset: Limited amenities

Plussat: Good area which was within walking distance of many of the main attractions.

Miinukset: There was no Wi-fi throughout our stay and we had no way of accessing our room. The problem with the Wi-fi meant that room keys could not be issued and we had to wait until a member of staff was available to take us to our room every time we returned to the hotel. The internal phones were not working so we had to go down to reception with any requests.

Miinukset: This hotel was highly disappointed. I came there for a business trip and did not have any wifi for more than 2 days out of 4 days. Only explanation given was that it was a "free wifi" hence not included in the price so they could not compensate me for anything which is a joke considering the hotel price. I highly do NOT recommend that hotel.

Plussat: Hyvä sijainti ja viihtyisä huone. Mukava aamupala.

Miinukset: Vasta viimeisenä aamuna selvisi mitä aamupalaamme olisi kokonaisuudessaan kuulunut.

Plussat: The location was nice, a few steps to the center, with a view of the castle. The staff tried to be helpful.

Miinukset: When we were there, the computer systems were out for our entire stay. The keycards did not work and there was no WiFi. We were not offered a discount on our rooms, because the manager was conveniently never on site.

Plussat: Hyvä sijainti, esim Hop in-hop off busseilla pääsi vierestä eri suuntiin. Lähellä on ruokapaikkoja. Lyhyehkö kävelymatka kaupunkiin (alle 1 km?), joko ylämäkeen tai tasaisempaa toiseen suuntaan. Rauhallisen oloista, ainakin näin syksyllä. Hotelli oli siisti ja vuode oli hyvä, suihkutila oli hyvin tilava, emme kuulleet liikenteen melua, huone oli sisäpihan puolella. Muuta: vedenkeitin, teetä, kahvia ja vesipullot, hyvä hiustenkuivain, jopa silityslauta.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Dark rooms

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Nearly everything.

Miinukset: Limited parking

Plussat: The location is perfect and the room was large. The bed was very comfortable.

Miinukset: There was no internet! and the staff was not pleasant about the situation. There was a problem with one of the elevators.

Plussat: Location, feel of the hotel and friendliness of the staff.

Miinukset: Interal courtyard room so was very hot, even with a fan. Understand can't all have an outside room

Plussat: Location of hotel

Plussat: The room was extremely noisy with bar staff emptying bottles out at 8 am in the courtyard waking everybody up.

Miinukset: The room we had was at the back of the property and all of the noise from the courtyard could be heard especially people tidying up and drunks going home in the early hours of the morning

Plussat: We were comfortable and centrally placed for the Edinburgh Fringe, our key priorities. The coffee bar at reception was friendly and useful.

Miinukset: Because of the central location it was also noisy both late and early! It would have been good to be recognised as a continuing ‘resident’ by the WiFi rather than having to reregister daily.

Plussat: Best thing is the location - couldn't be better to access the majority of Fringe venues easily. Room comfortable and clean. Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast great.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Location, breakfast

Miinukset: Size of room - for 2 people just too compact!

Plussat: Modern hotel in great location. Nice to have bar open 24hours to residents with excellent view over the square outside. Modern decor. Good breakfast Particularly good location for Edinburgh fringe venues - many almost on the doorstep

Miinukset: Our room opened into the atrium, no view at all and very stuffy. Price pretty steep ..... but it was the Edinburgh Festival/Fringe

Plussat: Loistava henkilökunta; helposti tavoitettava, ystävällinen, äärimmäisen avulias ja modernit työskentelymenetelmät, mikä teki oleskelusta hyvin miellyttävää.

Miinukset: Ei mitään negatiivista sanottavaa.

Plussat: The location was absolutely fantastic located right on the royal mile full of atmosphere! The rooms are located to the back of the building to avoid too much noise which is great. The breakfasts are brilliant and I would massively suggest booking your room with a breakfast saving time trying to find somewhere else! Loved will 100% be back again :)

Miinukset: The windows on the rooms are not barricaded therefore the windows are massively restricted and you cannot really open them - this along with the ‘air con’ not working and the humidity of the weather made it impossible to sleep! Do not book if a hot stuffy room will bother you.

Plussat: Huone oli uskomattoman tilava, siisti ja suihkut toimivat. Tämä ei aina tässä maassa ole varmaa. Palvelu oli hyvää ja hotelli aivan ydinkeskustassa, 10 päässä juna-asemasta.

Miinukset: EI moittimista mistään.

Plussat: The room was clean, beds very comfortable and it was lovely to have a window that opened! We had a problem with the sink and it was dealt with very promptly. All the staff were very courteous.

Miinukset: My only criticism is that there were no toilet facilities on the ground floor.

Plussat: Location is perfect. Staffs are very warm.

Miinukset: Room facilities are too simple.
