Unbeatable location - it’s literally in the middle of everything! It’s just across Edinburgh Waverly train station, 10 minute walk to Edinburgh Castle, 15 minute walk to Holyrood Palace and 5 minute walk to the Christmas Market. Staff is always helpful and breakfast is sumptuous!

It was an amazing stay, 10mins by foot to he Old Town. The appartments are very spacious, and have that old building vibe. The staff was very polite and ready to help.

    The flat was quiet, well-equipped, and very comfortable! It was a very easy walking distance to Old Town, the University of Edinburgh, and Holroyd Park with direct bus connections to New Town. Plus, Eric was an extremely kind and helpful host and even helped me retrieve my iPad, which I'd left behind. Such a lovely Edinburgh experience all around!

    This is a student accommodation owned by the University of Edinburgh, turned into a hotel during summer. I liked the location and how close all the buildings were (the rooms, reception and restaurant are all separate buildings). The room was somewhat spacious, with a big window. No noise coming from the outside. Breakfast was abundant, with a lot of hot and cold options to choose from.

    Stunning accomodations tucked away on the University of Edinburgh campus. We stayed during the summer when most students were away. The campus was very quiet, and there is security at the entrance. It is within walking distance to Arthur's Seat and the Royal Mile.

    These are individual dorms on the University of Edinburgh campus. The room is small but comfortable, with an ample-sized desk and desk chair and a comfortable bed. I also had my own sink in the room. Staff were very friendly, helpful and willing to answer questions. The location is not bad, with a short bus ride to the main attractions. Breakfast was quite good.

    Location is quite OK - right at the edge of Arthur's Seat, so it's a bit of a walk to the old city, but not too far really, and there are enough restaurants less than a 10 minute walk away. Note that the location on Google Maps is not correct; the actual location is "Pollock Halls of Residence, The University of Edinburgh", the modern building right in front of Saint Leonard's Hall.
