a&o Edinburgh City Reviews

Location is great but not recomended for traveller with a big case coz it is walking distance but you are gonna climb up 😄 and the street is so bumpy It’s standard hostel… no amenities , if you want it you pay it. Even you make your own bed 😅 But it’s fine … it’s clean and walking distance into many tourist attraction

You get what you paid for. Location is perfect. The check in time is not guaranteed. A bit loud due to the bar.

door was slightly creaky. good price, convenient but rooms were just okay. nowhere to hang items as well

Great location. Didn't use the amenities on site but the bar looked good and plenty of late night food. Only issue was the beds didn't have dedicated wall plugs or USB ports close by so you have to flight someone for a plug or keep devices away from you if you didn't have a long cord to reach your bed. Great showers 2 in my room of 8 people, hot and great pressure.

This is a wonderful hostel in a great location in Scotland,Edinburgh, it’s a very good place to socialize and have fun.

Thank you for every thing. The hotel location is amazing. Old town centre just 5 minutes for a walk. !

We return to a&o after our trip to Highlands. Busy as usual with the great location

I am a solo traveller and enjoy the hostel life. Look its not for everyone, there may be a chance someone snores or the person before you has not left the place in a better state than they found. But the staff @ the AO always go the extra mile, rooms are clean, fresh and I cant pick fault. The price makes travel accessible to all. But for goodness sake have some respect people! Some people are just rude, untidy and dirty then they blame the staff.. ! I will always look for AO in the future, I highly recommend, but if you cant share a dorm with strangers, then book a room!

a&o Hostel location is perfect. 15 mins slow walk from the Edinburg Train station and 20 mins walk to the Castle. We booked a Twin room and it comes with hair and body shampoo. Towel is provided too. There are many charging socket in the room. The check in was smooth and fast, however it gets pretty noisy at night as there is a bar downstairs. If you’re a light sleeper, prepare a pair of earplug.

The lady who checked us in was really lovely and let us have the room earlier. The location is great. There are also a lot of nice restaurant near by. Overall, we have a pleasant time staying there. We stay in a 4 bed with a private bathroom.

It was really good, clean and spacious for a bunk. There was curtains as well the bathroom was really nice.

Very good location, perfect service attitude, and the room is very clean

It is clean and nice. The service is good. There is also a bar and laundry.

The customer service is fabulous. Greeted by the most friendly staff
