It‘s very good palce to visit the Edi castle.
Also it is located in the centre of old town，where you can go very easily.

Easily the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in. Everything felt homey, intimate and friendly, the amenities were excellent, truely the ideal social hostel experience. I broke my foot while I was here and the staff were so caring, compassionate and helpful — their kindness made what was an absolute nightmare much more tolerable. Stepping outside every day to see the castle on one side and the hub spire on the other immediately put me in a good mood. Don’t stay anywhere else in Edinburgh.

Best hostel in Edinburgh
Best hostel in Edinburgh. It’s clean, silent after 10:30pm. No better location can then this one. As it’s a hostel, bathrooms and restrooms are shared, but super clean.

This place was absolutely amazing! I'm so impressed with the friendly, professional staff, the clean, quiet beds, and the central location. I will definitely be back! Thank you, Castle Rock Hostel!

I loved the experience of the hostel, the decoration is medieval as I like, the Edinburgh’s castle is in front of the hostel so the view is extraordinary!! The team is lovely, the activities were so cool, we went to a bar and danced the ceilidh. I recommend this hostel so far! Thanks for the experience.

El mejor hostel en el que he estado. El edificio es precioso, y las instalaciones muy chulas, con muchos salones con cosas interesantes. El personal muy agradable y accesible, los precios muy buenos, y la situación es inmejorable: al lado del castillo y con infinidad de cosas interesantes que ver en un radio de 10 minutos andando, para sacarle todo el provecho a la visita a Edimburgo

Great stay and excellent value for money. I stayed in an 8 bed female dorm and was lovely and clean. Was on a top bunk which was very comfortable. Other guests were very considerate and so hostel was really quiet at night and in the morning (though some outside noise but that can’t be helped in the middle of the city). Clean and quiet female bathroom. Friendly staff.

Great wee Hostel near the Castle!
Super friendly staff, big common room if you’re more social but little ones if you want peace too! Free tea/coffee/hot choc - though milk did seem to be lacking especially if you don’t drink cow milk. No lifts etc so poss a struggle for some - not an issue for me but worth noting I thought. They have activities and a cheap breakfast, it’s limited but what do you expect for £2.50. Location is good for old town, easy to walk round the city and beds were comfy enough! I will definitely stay here again when I’m visiting Edinburgh.
