I stayed here for two nights in the female only dorm and two nights in the mixed bed dorm. Both clean and spacious rooms and bedding. The staff are very kind and accommodating. Kitchen facilities are great. Location is excellent it is right in the heart of the old town! The hostel has a chill atmosphere and I would definitely recommend to others :)

I had a wonderful stay at Royal Mile Backpackers. The facilities were clean and I always felt safe. It’s also in the perfect location to all the sites in Edinburgh. The staff were friendly and always pleasant, especially Tara!! I highly recommend Royal Mile Backpackers and or their other hostel across the street, High Street Hostel (I stayed there as well during Christmas.) Happy holidays, and thanks again for everything RMB 🥰

Hostelworld sier

Hostelworld-reisende vurderer Royal Mile Backpackers veldig høyt for sin beliggenhet, og det er ikke så rart hvorfor - det ligger i sentrum av Edinburgh på fotgjengerdelen av Royal Mile, nær Castle og Waverly Train Station. Gjester har fortalt oss at det er "fint og koselig og fullt av karakter... dette vandrerhjemmet får deg virkelig til å føle deg hjemme". Vi liker at det tilbakelente, vennlige og hjelpsomme personalet tilbyr en rekke gjennomtenkte tilleggsutstyr som hyller i dusjene, kroker til å henge klær på og stikkontakter ved hver seng.
