Situated right in the middle of the royal mile its super easy to get anywhere and great value for the location. The staff were very helpful. It wasn't the cleanest hostel we have stayed in. If you want to cook for yourself while youre here, there are not always plates and cups and they dont get cleaned well as there... More

Moved here because of the location on the Royal Mile NEVER SHOULD HAVE! We roomed with 2 terrible snorers Not the hostels fault But Bedbugs are inexcusable Spread the word and hopefully the hostel will call pest control

I stayed at Brodie's in Edinburgh on the Royal Mile because I had a group of 28 students aged 13-16, three teachers and a bus driver. We were all stay in one building and it was clean and friendly. They accommodated our special needs with ease. There were several countries and languages represented there and every last one of them... More

A friend booked this place through a recommendation, and after reading about it on trip advisor, I wasn't too excited about staying here, but I was pleasantly surprised at the whole experience. The service standard was good from check in to check out, and although the room had not been vacuumed properly before we check in, this was seen to... More

First things first: The hotel location is superb! It's near the Waverley station (walking distance), situated right on the Royal Mile, and many sightseeing tour buses run from Royal Mile; also the Edinburgh Bus station is not that far (walkable, although we had to search for it). But that's pretty much it. I have stayed in youth hostels across many... More

Brodie's Hostel may be the cheapest you can stay in, but that doesn't excuse the facilities. Brodie's neither provided lockers, nor did they offer the rental of lockers. My bed was double booked, so when I entered the room there was already someone soundly asleep in my place. The rooms are also cramped for fitting 12 people. The shower facility... More

This hostel is oddly split into two locations but both are in a fantastic location right in the middle of everything. It gave us easy access to walk to all the sights we were there to see. My wife and I booked a double room, which is basically just a bare room with a bed. The showers are in a... More

We traveled to Edinburgh, to see James Morrison but as we arrived, it was cancelled. We booked Brodies Hostel as we were not intending on being in the room, only to sleep. As is turned out we were in it longer. The room was basic, as you would expect from a hostel, nothing plush or fancy but clean. No TV... More
