Pretty ordinary hostel- clean, basic but comfy. OK breakfast and good value food in the bar downstairs. Excellent location! More

This hostel is within walking distance from the old and new town and from the train station! People there were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the bar and the breakfast. I think it's the best choice for budget accommodation in Edinburgh. More

After a good time in London. I did st chris again in Edinburgh. Good location. I walked new and old town. Had a great night party. Everything you need in a backpacker. More

Top marks for location to the train station without being in the train station. Close to the castle, the old city & the new city. Quiet. It is a hostel so it is less expensive than a hotel. I was travelling with a friend and we got a private room, two beds. Small beds, small tv, small washroom. We spent... More

I stayed at the St Christopher's for one night and had to pay for two nights for a single/private room. Admittedly, I was very late in booking (only 5 days prior to check in) and most of the other hotels were fully books due to fresher's week. However, the amount I payed (approx 70 Pounds) is certainly overpriced. The rooms... More

As youth hostels go, this is a good one. Two friends and I stayed for a couple of nights during the festival in a mixed six bed dorm. Overall the room was clean with an ensuite bathroom (for use of all six) which made it feel (marginally) more private than some other hostels where the bathroom is available to multiple... More
