I had an amazing stay at RMB. They are located in the middle of The Royal Mile, meaning most hotspots are really close,... but there are also many places to eat or go shopping right in the area.I stayed in one of the female dorms (with 10 beds in it), after 22:00 it is expected that you are quiet in the bedrooms and the hallways which was much appreciated. In the room I stayed in I could enjoy the music from the pub two doors down, but the music stops at about midnight I think.I can definitely recommend RMB as the staff and location are incredibly great! Thanks for the amazing time guys!read more

THANKS FOR EVERYTHINGThanks for the welcome thanks for everything. We had a really good time and the reception really... assisted us in everything. The very nice environment located in the center of the city with a kitchen always open with the possibility of being able to drink hot drinks for free. Very youthful environment and with many very very courteous people. I highly recommend it to all young people who are looking for a central hostel in the city and who for those who have no experience can find very valid support in this hostel. Kisses, hugs and thanks for your courtesy, availability for assistance and hospitality.read more

Back here after 9 years and not much has changed, and that's for the better. Awesome small hostel in the heart of... Edinburgh, cozy and clean, very nice staff as it was back then. Love the fire place at the entrance for the cold days.read more

I found the welcoming being very cold and not friendly at all! I wish I was received as a guest, as a friend, and feel... like home, that was not the case. The stay was just fine then, clean bed, house, kitchen very clean and well kept...For me what makes my stay is the human behavior, and i was disappointed by the way i have been received.read more

Very nice and clean hostel right in the city centre. The beds are comfortable but fairly short, the showers clean, the... kitchen well equipped. I was welcomed by friendly staff and had a decent breakfast in the morning (£2). The train and coach stations and all tourist attractions are within walking distance.read more

An essential part in making my visit to Edinburgh my favourite trip ever. Great and friendly staff that are incredibly passionate and knowledgeable about the city. Excellent location on the Royal Mile that places you near everything. Cozy and clean spaces. Furthermore, the staff is equally serious about safety and about fun. Definitely go out in one of the daily hostal events (especially Ceilidh). I definitely lucked out with Royal Mile Backpackers.

I was sold on the free tea, coffee, milk, and marshmallows! Then I went to the bathroom and there was free (or should I say complimentary) feminine hygiene products, impressed. It’s a smaller hostel so nicer compared to the other big industrial hostels in Edinburgh. Staff are super friendly and nice.

Best hostel in Edinburgh! Comfy beds, excellent kitchen, great mix of social and chill atmosphere – and the location is unbeatable, right on the Royal Mile. Orla, Ivan, Willa, Jake – you guys are a fantastic team and made everyone feel at home. The place is always clean and cosy. Thanks for a great stay!
