Stayed here a couple of times now, both times were great both in high season and low. Comfy, safe bedrooms, amazing staff. Perfect location. Low season they were doing Reno’s on the bathroom which was annoying but easy enough to use a different floors bathroom

This concept is very intriguing! While I booked a private room, it was very small, but all I needed. The communal washrooms / showers were very clean and well designed. The common areas got quite busy, so I usually went out to the Royal Mile since the location is extremely central. Edinburgh Castle is a short walk and many restaurants nearby. A very affordable option for travellers who are open to a hostel concept, with a large kitchen, if cooking is preferred

Perfect location. Noisy, small rooms
Good things: location is unbeatable, right in the middle of the city, perfect. Clean rooms and toilets. Nice common area to stay in the evening. Bad things: the rooms are the samllest I've ever stayed in. They are called cells, and it's very realistic. The room has a bed, touching 3 walls and a little cabinet. It's noisy, even the workers don't respect the silent hours. The laundry is in the first floor and if you are unlucky and that's your floor you will hear lots of noise. This should be improved. Overall for the money you pay I think it is a bit too expensive, you pay the location.

Great and clean hostel.
Great place. Traveling across Europe for a few weeks with my son. Stayed here for 3 nights. I love the pod type hostels. This place is very clean and the staff was great. Had breakfast there one morning and they made me gluten free waffles that were excellent and I loved that they offered that. I felt safe in the area. Very walkable and right in the heat of old town. Lots of different ages there which was great. Thank you

I booked a private room, and it was perfect. The shared bathroom was clean. The best things about this hotel are (1) its central location, and (2) the friendly, helpful staff. If I were to go back to Edinburgh, I’d stay here again.

I recently stayed at CoDE Pod – The CoURT in Edinburgh, and it was a fantastic experience! The location is unbeatable, situated right in the heart of the city ( on Royal Mile ) just a short walk from major attractions like Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Mile. The staff were incredibly welcoming and always ready to assist with recommendations for local eateries, tours, or hidden gems. They created such a friendly atmosphere that it felt more like staying with friends than at a hostel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with plenty of storage space and individual charging points for each bed. I appreciated the privacy curtains on the bunk beds, which made it easy to relax after a day of exploring. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals although I didn't prepared any. What stood out the most was the social vibe. From organized events like beer testing to casual chats in the lounge, the hostel really brought people together. I’d highly recommend this hostel to anyone visiting Edinburgh, whether you're traveling solo or with friends. It’s the perfect base for exploring this beautiful city!
