Staff at counter were passionate and really helped a lot. A little something has to be mentioned probably will Be that toilet seat was actually not match the toilet, just a little bit uncomfortable but not being a problem! Anyway, still a total 5 stars . ##### Ting Yu Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Patricia 21 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities The bed was comfortable and I appreciated USB plugs in the headboard (the only place over 7 stays where I saw them). It was very clean and I appreciated the self catering kitchen with stove, oven, fridge and microwave. ##### Patricia Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Samuel 21 Aug 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities no air sicuolstion room like an oven could sleep so hot ##### Samuel Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Zachary 27 Aug 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities The rooms are unbearably hot, even when the outside temperature is cool. they have fans at the front desk but availability is limited and even with them it is horribly uncomfortable to sleep. ##### Zachary Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mamboh 20 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities "I stayed at this hostel for three weeks during my placement. The rooms were clean, staff friendly, and the location was perfect—close to transport and eateries. Wi-Fi was reliable, and the atmosphere felt safe and welcoming. Great value for money. I’d definitely recommend it for short or long stays ##### Mamboh Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Veronika 10 Jun 2025 Liked: Staff & service Basic facilities, fairly clean, staff were very friendly and helpful. The doors are quite noisy if you let them slam shut (which is easy to do). The location is quite convenient and fairly close to the city centre. ##### Veronika Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Chye Khim 16 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Ensuite bathroom. Common kitchen for cooking👍. Overall clean ##### Chye Khim Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alan 9 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort A good stay at the Destiny Student accomodation. Check in was easy, most of it done before arrival. Room was nice, clean, basic but good. Only 15 minutes walk from train station, a few minutes from Hollyrood and the Scottish parliament builds. Would use this again, different from a 5 star hotel but gives you more money to spend on activities ##### Alan Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Karthik 11 Jun 2025 It was ok and price was too high for 2star accommodation. Better that bunk beds around the city, price to high, was priced to 75 GBP per night for hostel accommodation ##### Karthik Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Novotel Edinburgh Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Novotel-Edinburgh-Centre.h982662.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Edinburgh Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Edinburgh-Airport.h520429.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Edinburgh.h15710648.Hotel-Information) > > [Edinburgh Marriott Hotel Holyrood](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Macdonald-Holyrood-Hotel-And-Spa.h546065.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel, Edinburgh City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel.h4270.Hotel-Information) > > [Malmaison Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Malmaison-Edinburgh.h664615.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Edinburgh by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Edinburgh.h3516.Hotel-Information) > > [The Balmoral Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Balmoral-Hotel.h9339.Hotel-Information) > > [Old Town Chambers, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Cheval-Old-Town-Chambers.h6175181.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Edinburgh Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Novotel-Edinburgh-Park.h1781324.Hotel-Information) > > [Britannia Hotel Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Britannia-Hotel-Edinburgh.h4533.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex Grassmarket Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Apex-Grassmarket-Hotel.h62750.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Ibis-Edinburgh-Centre-South-Bridge-Royal-Mile.h6793484.Hotel-Information) > > [Fingal - A Luxury Floating Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Fingal.h38753319.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Hotel & Spa, Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Hotel-Spa.h15554.Hotel-Information) > > [Village Hotel Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Village-Hotel-Edinburgh.h9131632.Hotel-Information) > > [Virgin Hotels Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Virgin-Hotels-Edinburgh.h74635444.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Edinburgh City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Edinburgh-City-Centre.h518686.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex Waterloo Place Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Apex-Waterloo-Place-Hotel.h2278092.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Edinburgh Carlton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Hilton-Edinburgh-Carlton.h1648.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-Edinburgh-Haymarket.h4035314.Hotel-Information) > > [The Scotsman Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Scotsman-Hotel.h570820.Hotel-Information) > > [Moxy Edinburgh Fountainbridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Moxy-Edinburgh-Fountainbridge.h64450784.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Edinburgh-Airport.h84014.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express - Edinburgh City Centre by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Edinburgh-City-Centre.h1088215.Hotel-Information) > > [The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Caledonian-Edinburgh.h4198.Hotel-Information) > > [YOTEL Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-YOTEL-Edinburgh.h36667881.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Edinburgh-Marriott-Hotel.h873944.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Edinburgh West End](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Edinburgh-West-End.h19288210.Hotel-Information)
