The best hostel in the world without any doubts (as a solo women backpacker everything was made to make you feel like home :))

Great place! the location is great, right below the castle!
The hostel is one of the authentic hostels where you have a big common room to meet and talk with people. The atmosphere is a real hostel atmosphere. You also have music in the showers room :)
There is a movie room, music one and a big kitchen.
You can have breakfast just for 3 pounds.

Castillo muy hermoso, vale la pena estar a la 1 pm para el disparo del cañón, es una buena experiencia.

Eines der besten Hostels, in denen ich je war! Man fühlt sich wie zuhause, lernt leicht Leute kennen, es gibt jeden Tag Programm und alles ist top organisiert dort.

La localisation est juste parfaite. Le staff est super sympa. L'ambiance et le décor sont superbes. Bons tarifs. Par contre la literie est moyenne et, gros point noir, les sanitaires en commun sont exiguës, mixtes et assez sales.

Awesome building, fantastically run by the owners - props to them. Awesome location just outside of the castle - a truly amazing business. So much art to take in and the free pool is a bonus plus so many people to interact with - I really recommend this hostel for a short stay.

I found the staff that work at the hostel to be hostile and intimidating. Staff sell drugs from within the hostel, some staff use the hostel as a place to live illegally in the UK; management-goons are untrustworthy, tyrannical liars

It's a shame the staff (not the owners) dampened my experience here other than that I would say that this castle truly rocks.

Brilliant place to stay in Edinburgh! I enjoyed the location, people and the service. Hope you will meet some great people like I had and definitely try the events they organise each evening.

Beim Zimmer gab es leider zwei Punkte Abzug, da es auf unserem Zimmer kein Waschbecken gab und wir über mehrere Gänge zum Waschsaal & den Toiletten mussten.

Die Lage ist echt unschlagbar gut und gleiches gilt für den Preis. Ich würde sofort wieder hier eine Nacht verbringen. Das Ambiente ist unbeschreiblich schön. Meine absolute Empfehlung!

Lovely staff and cheerful athmosphere. Cleaned up premises and located in the heart of the city, just by the castle, the Royal Mile etc. Ready to come back❤️

Buen lugar. Valoro positivamente la consigna de equipaje gratuita y la recepción 24 horas.

Very nice hostel, a lot of common rooms, free tea and hot chocolate at anytime, clean bathroom. The breakfast for only 3£ was worth it, staff is kind and rooms have locker with personal keys so no need of bringing locks. The location is amazing, literally 1 minute from the castle and 5 minutes from Victoria Street, one of the main streets. I travelled in pair and we could visit everything walking from there. Only negative aspect, the room (we were in the mixed 12 pp one) was cold and very humid, but once under the blankets it was okay.
Recommended for a weekend trip.

저렴한 가격에 위치가 정말 좋습니다.
에딘버러성 바로 근처에 있고 올드타운 로얄마일등 관광하기 좋은 위치라서 편했어요.
시설은 뭐 평범한 호스텔 시설이고 조식도 3파운드에 먹을만 합니다. 샤워실에 뜨거운 물 잘 나오고요. 스탭들도 친절함.
그리고 춥다는 후기가 있어서 걱정했는데, 3월에 이용했는데 전혀 춥지 않았어요.
주방 사용할 수 있고 라운지 공간도 충분하고..
보완할 점이라면, 침대 매트가 많이 꺼져 있었다는 것과 방에 옷걸이 같은게 좀더 있었으면 좋겠다는거?
이 정도입니다.

This is the best hostel everrrrrrr it’s so fun and quirky! The room themes are so cute, tons of cool and weird art. Friendly staff. Bar crawl was amazing. Window views were so dreamy, good kitchen, free tea and coffee (and oat milk ????) were very appreciated.

Nos hospedamos en marzo, 4 días. Podes comprar el desayuno o te compras para preparar como en casa, Duchas muy buenas con agua caliente infinita!!!
Todas las noches hay actividades gratis,
Si sabes inglés esta genial, sino también sobrevivis, si sos joven es tu lugar, si estás un poco más grande como yo (52) estás bárbaro porque estás alojado en el centro de la ciudad y podes hacer todos los recorridos caminando. Especial recorrer todo con los free tours.

Wholesome place! The hostel itself is located in the best area possible it is really spacious but unbeatably comfortable. I can only recommend joining the events. I got to know some really nice people during my stay.

This is a must stay , if you are looking for cheap accommodation and awesome people to meet( way better than other hostels) . Literally I had a booking in other hostel and I didn’t go over there and stayed here for another night…

Listen y’all, the location is amazing but I paid 3 pounds for breakfast. Only to find that the breakfast consisted of flaky old buns in an old bag, along with the strangest assortment pasta and potato salads which had no salt and
suspicious mayo. I wonder who feels like eating potato salad at 7 am? The cereal options were lacking at best, no fun fruit loops just corn corn flakes. Yum! Not.There was a mysterious woman constantly asking us if we paid as she peeled potatoes in the corner for tommorow’s similar style breakfast. I was not enthused by the fact us backpackers were entrusted to wash the dishes. We are not to be trusted.

Absolutely lovely hostel. Kind staff, clean bathrooms, and comfortable quiet bunks. They have events most nights and a great lounge for socializing. Wouldn't stay anywhere else!

Pour un logement pas trop cher dans une ville ou il n'est pas évident de trouver des locations avec un rapport qualité/prix correct, le Castle Rock sera un bon compromis. Situé au coeur d'Édimbourg le cadre est joli (dans le genre chateau hanté!), assez festif et compense pour les petites chambres et les salles de bains communes.
La cuisine commune permet de faire des économies sur les repas et de vivre une expérience peu commune. Beaucoup de nationalités/personnalités s'y croisent et c'est absolument incroyable!
