Pollock Estate - Summer Accommodation
18 Holyrood Park Road, Edinburgh, EH16 5AY, United Kingdom – Great location - show map
The location is close to the center and you can get bus from the doorstep. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very nice and had loads of choices with clean dining area. It is a quiet, safe and friendly accomodation and also good value for money. Very much recommended
IrelandGreat value considering you get a private room and bathroom. However, this is ultimately student housing and not a hotel, so no frills. Great, comfortable, clean stay!
United States of AmericaI could see a building from my window that makes me feel in a Disney movie ❤️
Brazilbig rooms and perfect breakfast the best is very quiet at night
TaiwanBeautiful setting, right beside the beautiful Athurs seat which is spectacular. Check in staff were very friendly. Breakfast was fantastic. Nice lively buzz around, lot's of people coming and going.
United KingdomI loved staying at this location is it really provided everything we needed for traveling. I traveled with my daughter who is in university so it was fun sharing a University dorm room with her and eating at the cafeteria University style. We had also been traveling for a while so access to laundry facilities was also a plus. The location wasn’t too far away from city center so we could walk if needed. The mountain behind the university really accentuated the beauty of the place. I would indeed stay here again.
