Cowgate Hostel

This hostel is good for a few days the room very well but does not have a table or chairs my room overlooked a pub and you heard a lot but little time the worst that there is no heating in the bathroom only in the rooms and the kitchen a little dirty and that we arrived at 12 nocje and on the web did not say that it closed at 11 o'clock at night and opens at 8 o'clock in the morning and we were in the street but there are more hostels nearby so we went to another hostel for one night very well located in the center of old Edinburgh

thank you for the time, you make my time in Edinburgh really better than i tought. with the free tour you proposed with a other compagnie, and the place was extremely safe, near of everything. thank you

Well placed in the historic center of the city but very noisy street. Room right in front of a large beer garden, with live music, screen and large terrace filled even in the middle of the week until late at night. Spartan room, without bedside light, tired bedding, shared toilets and still £ 75 for 2, or at least 90 € without breakfast. Really not interesting in this case while 1 dormitory bed of 6 costs £ 15, so good for 1 person on a budget.

Bonne auberge de jeunesse, très bien placée dans Edimbourg. Mais la rue est très bruyante surtout la nuit.

Can not stay in this hostel because of the smell. While this is a youth hostel, there are limits to a room that smells like dirt. Unable to be reimbursed despite our complaints.

Good hostel

Hostel very well located in the historic center of Edinburgh

Good reception, spacious kitchen and layout of apartments friendly! Hostel very well placed, 5 minutes walk from the old town and 15 minutes from the train station. However rather dark and smelly rooms, where it is a little cold ...

Rooms in the floors. No elevator. Basic comfort in the apartments (WC, showers outside the rooms). A little more, the kitchen (for all rooms in the apartment / floor). Located in front of a pub (noisy the night of games of 6 nations). Near downtown but still about 15 / 20min bus stops and tram to the airport.

If you are just after the basic accommodation then this place is for you. Although the staff is very helpful, the place could use some TLC

Great location. Surrounded by all kinds of pubs, restaurants and nightlife. The train station is within walking distance. Greatly recommended for those who like to party. The staff are friendly.

Great place

Hostel well located but not very pleasant, poor hygiene, unfriendly staff

Well located and safe hostel, but little atmosphere.

Bad

It is very expensive for what it is: a bunk bed in a single room.

Good for 1 or 2 days maximum

Short distance to Weaverly Station and heart of the city; staff very friendly and helpful; free teas and coffees at the reception; welcoming kitchen

The location was good but other hostels in the area seemed nicer. Wireless internet in lounge was nice but in rooms would be better.

Near to OLD TOWN.

Friendly staff who assisted when there was a room change on their part, clean facilities, enough facilities for each floor, good hot water systems, comfy beds.
