36 Chalmers Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9FE, United Kingdom –

Bed very uncomfortable which I did mention to staff when I left

Gill, United Kingdom

I came here for the Fringe, where you wouldn't thing twice about seeing rooms advertised for hundreds of pounds. This accommodation is alongside a beautiful meadow and only a 10 minute walk to the centre of the Fringe. Despite this, it was a third the price of the next closest accommodation in the area. The room is undeniably basic: it had a bed, a desk, some storage and a small toilet/shower room. This is normally student accommodation and so don't expect 5 stars. That said, it is honest about what it is, and excellent value for money.

Flaccus, United Kingdom

It was basic but fine and good value for money. The staff were very pleasant and helpful.

Willie, Ireland

The location was perfect during the festival ,close enough but peaceful. Lovely view over the meadows. The kitchen useful. Staff were friendly. We got en suite which I was not expecting. Well designed room.

Ann, United Kingdom

only the second day i found out there was a kitchen, where i could make tea etc.

Cecile, Netherlands

Location perfect for festival, clean, friendly and everything we needed for our stay.

Susie, United Kingdom

Modern and easily accessed with most venues for the Festival withing walking distance and a bus stop near on Lauritson Place to reach venues farther afield. very quiet .

Lalita, United Kingdom

The excellent location near to the Edinburgh festival venues.

Adrian, France

Good accommodation for 3 generations of family. Lounge/kitchen/diner had nice view over The Meadows park. Ramp and Lift for luggage & pushchair. Helpful staff.

Susan, United Kingdom

Basic, clean and central accommodation. walking distamce to the centre.

Sr_01, United Kingdom

One of our top picks in Edinburgh.Chalmers Street offers modern rooms featuring free Wi-Fi and desks. Princes Street and Castle are within easy .

Some of the rooms at Chalmers Street have private bathrooms and some have shared bathrooms. Each Chalmers Street flat has a well equipped kitchen, and there is a lounge area for guests.

Waverley train station is within a 10 minute walk and all the Festival venues are nearby.

This is our guests' favorite part of Edinburgh, according to independent reviews.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.5 for a two-person trip.
