The location was great. The staff at the reception were very nice, and I really liked the atmosphere. The 25% discount at their own cafeteria and the restaurant across the street was also a great idea. The lockers with a secure password system were another plus. If I come again, I would definitely choose this place again. Thanks to everyone.

It felt a bit strange that the bunk beds were for three people, and by chance, I ended up on the top bunk. I made the reservation knowingly and intentionally, but I still think it would be better if it were for two people. The bottom bunk could cause some anxiety.

Location! Meters away from train station, flight of stairs away from Royal mile. Helpful staff. Option to use lockers for luggage when arriving early or departing later than checking times. All guests have a discount in on site cafe and a bar across the street. It is not the newest and obvious tear and wear, but its clean.

It does need some repairs here and there. Bathroom could do with upgrades. We had a mouse visiting. Extra guest was evicted, all room cleaned and bedding changed. The worst thing was the pillows - way too small and soft, more like a folded sheet with case over.

Very central location, train station is close by, bus station to/from the airport is also only a few minutes away. quite happy with the room and the facilitites. Great place to start exploring Edinburgh for the first time. Giles Cathedral and the famous walking street Royal Mile only a short walk away. The hostel had some activities and recommendations almost each day, like free salsa classes, pizza night etc. Free storage lockers were great to have, I appreciated that.

Was mostly happy with the place. I had an unfortunate experience where my food (labeled, placed in the hostel fridge in the common area) dissapeared, I can not know if it was removed by accident or some other fellow traveller took it, etc. But I got som free food from another fellow traveller staying there and there's always a few snacks in the kitchen.

The breakfast is amazing with yogurt, fruit, cereal, and options to make your own sandwich. The location is great. The room was clean, and the bed was comfortable.

The communal toilets were not very clean.

The location was perfect - near Waverley Station, 5min from the Airlink 100 and just round the corner from Cockburn Street. Breakfast was good. Different juices, coffee and tea. Also toast with butter and jam, chocolate spread and a sandwich maker and a toaster. Cereals were also there. And fresh fruit. Bonus tip: bring your own yogurt and pimp your breakfast, there is a great food hall in the basement of M&S opposite from Scott’s monument in Prince’s Street. The beds were good and I liked that curtains ensured privacy. We had a nice view to Scott’s monument.

The chill out room could have been a bit bigger and a proper kitchen would’ve been nice, but it’s alright.

I stayed in a women's dorm, there was a separate toilet and a shower in our room, which made us more comfortable. The beds were nice and clean. The kitchen and the locker facilities are really convenient. The view from the room was amazing at night.Couldn't expect more than these services. Highly recommended.

We were very lucky because there was a lift otherwise we had to carry our luggage up to our room. However, the lift service could be improved. Secondly, there could be a door matt in front of the shower which could keep our room a bit dry.

This Hostel is perfectly located right bext to the train station and only a brief walk from the Royal Mile and the main tourist attractions. I booked a female dorm which meant that we even had our own shower, toilet and sinks in our dorm so that was perfect!

When I stayed, they were renovating the kitchen. That‘s a bit sad as I was planning on cooking to save money. Sadly they didn‘t tell me this during check-in but only after i had already gone grocery shopping…

It is neat, situated at the city center which is located just behind my work place. Nice Staff, friendly and ready to help except on this day i was rudely interrupted and cut short by a male member of staff who had thought i was asking for an early check-in but had a different question at hand regarding my booking. I wasn’t happy about it, and i am using this avenue not to complain but for him to take note that someone else might deal with circumstances like that differently and thats not good for Business. Aside that, the property, my stay so far have been nothing but amazing and i intend to stay in the next coming year for work.

I wish there was a consideration for early check in with a token, i would gladly accept that but you have your policies and i humbly respect that.

Perfect location (basically in front of the train station and very close to the bus station and main road of the city), nice staff (and they give you very quickly assistance when you need it), great things/services available in the hostel (locker, discount on a coffee shop, good breakfast), room with a normal size and clean bathroom (as I expected).

The locker inside the rooms are below the bed, so it makes lots of noise when somebody pulls/pushes it - I didn't find it so safe, so I let my important things on the bed with me when I was sleeping.

I find St Christopher's anywhere are clean, comfortable and friendly staff.

I arrived on a late flight and specifically requested a bottom bunk. When I went up to my room, there was someone occupying my bed.. I proceeded back down to reception and told this to the girl working about this. Now, she was very nice, I really have no complaints about her. She did, however, tell me just to take any bed in the room. What should have happened is I should have been offered another room that had a bottom bunk available. There are reasons I needed a bottom bunk and why I always request. It is always comfortable and pleasant. But requests should be honored if agreed to.
