Castle Rock Hostel

It had the old feel that most buildings in Edinburgh do, but it was very clean and pretty comfortable. There were several opportunities to make friends, but also no judgement for people that were hanging out on their own. Overall, I’m glad I chose to stay there :)

Great location as seen on pictures. Nice and helpful staff. Comfy rooms with preassigned beds and small lockers. Great shared areas, with social life. Clean bathrooms with great availability

Castle Rock Hostel is absolutely lovely! Many international travellers and backpackers stay there, some of them longer. Edinburgh Castle is just to the right, you can see it from the front door, also you are in the middle of the old city centre and you can reach most places within a few minutes walking distance. The interior of Castle Rock Hostel is beautiful and the staff is super friendly. The common areas are the perfect place for hanging out alone or to meet other travellers: There's two big and very well equipped kitchens and several lounges with board games, billiard and even a piano.

We really loved it at castle Rock and when I'm back in Edinburgh, I definitely know where I'm going to stay! xx
