Belford Hostel

My friend and I LOVED our stay at Belford Hostel. It genuinely spoiled us. The staff were super friendly, especially Taz, and we had the best time getting to know the other people at the hostel. The kitchen was always clean, and the girls showers were so cute and perfect to get ready in! If we are hosteling in Edinburgh again, we would definitely come back! :)

I really enjoyed my stay here. The bathrooms and showers were cleaned regularly, and the bedding was clean and fresh. The murals are beautiful, and the general vibe is very safe and chill. The hostel is about a 10-minute walk from Haymarket Station. It is a bit out of the way, but I think that probably contributes to the laid-back atmosphere. As a solo female traveler, I felt completely safe here. Although the halls and basement community space get chilly, the rooms are well-heated.

Had a wonderful stay! The hostel was spot on - clean, safe, and comfortable. Would highly recommend it to anyone for a budget-friendly place in Edinburgh .

Cerca a dean village!

Special thank you to Matt! Hostel is amazing’!

Belford Hostel is a great stay! Though, beware of the weekends as backpackers and interrailers are nightly creatures. Your sleep may suffer slightly. Decorations are fun. Showers work. Staff is nice.

Overall solid hostel. Beds in the 10 bed dorm were comfy enough for bunk beds. Nice big common area and a really big d kitchen are big plusses. Not a fan though that they wanted to record my card details in case of damages + charge for luggage storage.

Bon emplacement, bonne ambiance, grande cuisine. Cependant les toilettes étaient très sales et peu de toilettes pour le nombre de personnes. Il faut traverser toute l'auberge pour se doucher.

The hostel was decent. The man at the front with the glasses isn’t very friendly and they charge you to store your luggage after you checkout . The hallways are freezing and the social atmosphere is pretty dead. It’s about a 30 minute walk to the center. I wouldn’t stay here again.

This is a nice hostel with good decor throughout. The bathrooms are very clean and the showers are big. The guy in the front is also very kind and welcoming. It is a little far from the center and the hallways and bathrooms are very cold. If there was heating in these common spaces, I think there would be better reviews. Also, the social atmosphere is lacking even though there is a huge common room and they put on activities.

Really good hostel; been there twice, will likely go again :) Ups: located in really nice, walkable area, kitchen fully stocked, large seating area, great showers (hot water, great water pressure, even shower gels), fun + helpful staff Downs: dorm walls really thin so the hostel never really gets quiet; bunks and doors extremely creaky (they provide earplugs and unless you‘re a deep sleeper, you‘ll need those!)

Cooles Hostel in einer ehemaligen Kirche, die nächste Tram Station ist ca. 15 Minuten Fußweg entfernt. Die Mitarbeitenden waren sehr freundlich. Wasserkocher und Teemöglichkeit gab es im Zimmer. Das Zimmer war sauber und ordentlich. Die Toiletten waren ok von der Sauberkeit.

Really great vibes, kitchen is stocked with anything you could need, beds were comfy, bathrooms clean, walking distance to haymarket station.

I was a solo female traveler staying here and I felt extremely safe, and was able to walk to all my destinations from the hostel. I stayed in a private dorm and it was perfect for the one night. The staff was very helpful and attentive throughout my entire stay, and the overall atmosphere of the hostel and communal areas were very cozy and unique compared to other places i’ve stayed. I already recommended the place to my friend who booked it, and would recommend to others!

It is 30 minutes walk from the city centre, and the locality is peaceful. The accommodation is quite neat, but the rooms feel quite cold in the winter. It is a church converted into a hostel, so the thick stone walls are almost always cold, and in the absence of central heating, when you enter your room, it takes forever to optimise the room temperature. We were there for a night, and the room heating did pretty much nothing till the next morning. It was not the most comfortable night

Camera calda e accogliente

They don’t heat the bathroom so if you travel during the winter prepare to take your shower in 0 degree

The experience wasn't very pleasant.My friend and I were sharing a room with 6 more people but was super tight, we didn't have space for our stuff or to move properly. In my case I was sleeping in the low bed and I did not have space to even raise my head when I was sitting. The common areas were freezing and not that clean and I,ve had missed all the time a proper heating, specially in the showers/bathroom. Not very happy with our stay I would not recommend it.

Das 6 Bett Zimmer ohne Bad hatte Schließfächer in dem man seine Sachen legen konnte. Man brauchte allerdings ein eigenes Schloss um sie abzuschließen. Das Zimmer an sich, war etwas klein und es gab kein Fenster zum lüften. Die Betten waren dafür sehr gemütlich und man hatte eine Heizung die man selber verstellen konnte. Die Bäder waren sauber und die Küche hatte eine sehr gute Ausstattung.

Everything ok except the shared toilettes. Very cold and far. Guests must go down stairs for showers, and are spaces without heating. It is very uncomfortable to across the reception are to go for women shower.
